Pet Friendly Accomodations
There are thousands of motels, hotels and inns across the U.S. that accept guests with pets. Most hotels set their own policies, so it is important to call ahead and ask if pets are permitted and if there is a size limit and/or extra charge. Pet-friendly lodging can be found on the web at:
