How about asking the motel if they will kick out a ‘guest” that abandons their pet while they take a night out and the lonely pet howls and cries and barks for hours and hours.
I like dogs and cats just fine, but
“Things like an in-room massage, spa robe, chic designer bowls, toys, towels, natural organic treats”
is a bit over the top.
And yes, the main difference in Motel 6 we stayed at was the carpetless floors. But all five of us (and Bella, the dog) stayed for under $50. I wouldn’t dream of paying that just for the dog.
A pet friendly campground is better.
A few years ago when I was staying at Grand Marais Michigan, my camp neighbors had two dalmatians that were trained to hold each others leash. The guy said the rules say they have to be on a leash, it didn’t say I need to hold it.
He walked his dogs all over the campground like that.
Yeah, that was my response too.
Snarky comment: She is writing about pet friendly, but only talking about dogs and not that other very popular American pet who often delight in tormenting dogs.
Good grief what a lunatic.
Dog massage? Biscuits on pillows?
The wife and I RV it with the animals. SO much easier though can’t drive as much as I used to.
Is that service available for pet monkeys, too?"
Regards,
I was walking to my hotel room the other day when a guest exited into the hallway with 2 little yapping at me mutts. I wanted to kick the little bothersome runts but their owner did apologize for their agression.
Guess they got territorial even for a hotel room.
Hands down the prettiest natural harbor.
This is a joke, right? I figure I'm Santa Claus when I give little Sir Brownie Waggleshank a brand-name hot dog between meals, and it's not even out of a "chic designer bowl".
Inn by the Sea is not for the common folks.
My cat is over the weight limit allowed for dogs at my apartment complex.
Heh. I like that last bit a lot.
(Hope this isn’t against the rules) We always stay at La Quinta because they always take pets. It would be nice if more places on the coast allowed pets, but I can see their side of it, too. Not everyone treats the places they stay the way they treat their homes. (Or maybe they do & they’re pigs)
I was enjoying reading this until I got to this sentence:
You’d see a nice boon in the economy if more “bigger” dog moms and dads could bring their Greyhounds, Labradors, and over 50-pound dogs on vacation.

Stopped there. I despise this foolishness of referring to a pet owner as the parent of a dog. I am not my dog’s “mom”. I never met her, but I am sure she had 4 legs and a long tail. The leftists are the ones that like to act like humans are of a species that has no superiority to any other species.
It’s very nice, and not really that expensive.
I saw something just recently about a “dog spa”...
including some sort of mud bath or facial or something.
What dog is going to stand for a “facial”?
Each producing after its kind...
And, no, that dog is not an adopted child...
I have a huge dog (Pyranese). She’s really good in the car, but no way would I take her on vacation.
