It does take extra time in planning and researching before the trip, but luckily there are a lot of pet-friendly hotels and businesses nowadays which makes it a bit easier.<br /><br />We've found the La Quinta hotel chain to be very pet-friendly. There's varying rules about allowing pets to be left unattended but pets are free, which is good! The chain has locations everywhere which makes it a good choice for road trips.<br /><br />I run a pet travel website, as well as am a pet travel specialist. If you need any help with planning your next trip with your pet, please don't hesitate to contact me. Also, I have a checklist on what to pack for your pet for your next road trip on the website which you may find useful.<br /><br />Happy Travels!<br /><br />Leila<br />www.andasmalldog.comLeila Coehttp://andasmalldog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-80202376189263800492009-09-16T19:06:50.885-06:002009-09-16T19:06:50.885-06:00It was hard traveling cross country with our 75+ p...It was hard traveling cross country with our 75+ pound lab mix when she was still with us. I recommend double checking BEFORE leaving to verify that the places you have chosen to stay are indeed dog friendly and double check the weight limit. I recommend taking some bottled water from home to minimize the chance of upset tummy. Take sheets to cover the bed if you plan on allowing Montana on them to minimize any hair transfer. Also, if you haven't used a flea treatment on her, do so. The of the only time we ever had to deal with fleas was while traveling. I firmly believe they were picked up at a rest area. I wouldn't recommend leaving Montana alone in the room, even crated as she may bark being in a strange environment and disturb other guests. And PLEASE pick up after her (and others if you find it.). It only takes one bad apple to ruin it for every other responsible pet owner.

A spray bottle with water/vinegar solution, a couple of microfiber cloths, extra plastic bags for trash/poop, etc. I bring this in to the hotel with us in case the dogs have an accident. They never have, but I can't imagine not doing my best to clean up after them if they did.artemisiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048259618106957687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-2305665556054314312009-09-16T11:27:31.465-06:002009-09-16T11:27:31.465-06:00Oh, yes.

We look for pet-friendly hotels, and we find kennels to keep them if we need to be away from them for a full day or more. Many kennels will let you come and go, which is nice. Then, they have someone keeping an eye on them for a the few hours we need to be away.<br /><br />Always carry water and a dog dish. Bring more food than you think you will need, and extra treats in case there are stressful situations. <br /><br />Bring lots of towels, too. Traveling can be stressful for the pup, and there may be an accident. <br /><br />It can be a bit stressful every now and then, but for the most part it is fun.

The problem we had was finding places that would accept large dogs, particularly since we had. Lots of places would take dogs up to 15 pounds. Funny - that's just a snack for my boys. I realize some people take advantage and are asshats about what they let pets do to a hotel room, but I have to believe most people are better than that.<br /><br />Baymont Inns (last I knew anyway) took dogs any size for no extra charge. There were so awesome. As you said, there are many great internet resources now to be able to map your journey. I hope you all have fun. I loved taking the dogs with us into a hotel, but I have to admit it felt funny walking them down the hallway. It was just weird. Also, one of our dogs got a little freaked out by the fact that people walked by right outside the door. He went into protective mode at first, but then he got over himself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-18010618125619595952009-09-16T09:44:25.334-06:002009-09-16T09:44:25.334-06:00My parents have been in the hotel business for yea...My parents have been in the hotel business for years so I have a slightly different POV. They do allow pets and charge a small fee per day, but people often take advantage by letting their dog poop and not cleaning it up, leaving the dog in the room ALL day and/or uncrated so the maid can't go in and it barks all day and disturbs other guests, and of course some dogs have accidents and shed everywhere. They do have designated pet rooms for that reason. <br />Unfortunately, a few irresponsible pet owners ruin it for those, like you, who would never dream of behaving like that. :( <br />We've only traveled with our dog once, and we did stay in a motel, but I can't remember all that much about it. It was a cheap place and we were literally only there for sleeping. With 3 kids there's no way I'd attempt traveling with the dog too. We already have to stop 5million times for potty breaks. lold e v a nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02514260896810474173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-9599834460731856102009-09-16T08:54:27.174-06:002009-09-16T08:54:27.174-06:00My mom stayed at one hotel with her dog and the ro...My mom stayed at one hotel with her dog and the room was a smoking/pet room which made it kind of gross.

And that wasn't our first. We've used petswelcome.com in the past to find places to stay. On this most recent trip, we also found luck using search terms like "pet friendly b&b [insert location]" <br /><br />One thing to remember is when you're checking in, remind them you have a dog. Some places require you to fill out an emergency form for the dog; others make you enter through a separate entrance to avoid having dogs in the main lobby; etc. Also, pretty much EVERY place we stayed had rules stating you could not leave the dog alone in the room ... so, you'll want to double check that before taking off to sight see without Montana.<br /><br />One thing that we changed drastically is how we eat meals. Instead of stopping at an oasis with tons of food options, we now opt for rest stops with big grassy areas to walk the dog. We tend to pack a cooler full of sandwich supplies so we don't have to worry about stopping for food. And we bring a few gallons of water, so it's easy to give her a quick drink. <br /><br />Also, shopping completely changed on our trip. One of us had to stand outside with the dog while the other shopped (though we were surprised at how many places invited us to bring her in).<br /><br />We don't regret traveling with SoMi. She is a part of our family and it makes us happy to bring her along. But, the way in which we travel has most definitely changed. An adjustment, for sure.Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-18945801595526842562009-09-16T07:05:34.660-06:002009-09-16T07:05:34.660-06:00to be fair to hotels, and to people who are allerg...to be fair to hotels, and to people who are allergic to dogs, vacuuming the hair is one thing but making sure there are no remnants/dander anywhere in the room is quite another...Alison (your favorite sister)noreply@blogger.com
