♥Tiny Tia my Furbaby♥ Donating Member | Doggie Hotel Worries We are going to a family party at the end of this month and my hubby has said I can take Tia if I want as it is in a dog friendly hotel. Well I am so excited but just wondering wether she will settle in the room while we are at the party.The party is only downstairs so I can check on her .Ill probably stay with her lol She is crate trained so should I put her in that while at the party? I dont know how big the hotel is , but are we likley to be put on the top floor(worried about getting her to potty on time) Any experienced doggy hotelers out there with some advice?

| Well, we just came back from spending 8 nights in motels with one of our dogs and she did very well when we had to leave her alone. Although, we only left her for short periods, mostly while we went to eat. If she is used to her crate she will probably feel more secure in there and if you can check on her often, it should be ok. Good luck with that! |

| When I have stayed in hotels, I keep mine in their crates, and I also put the do not disturb sign on the door when I'm out of the room.They did fine, I didn't leave them for very long at a time.

| I am a manager for a hotel, and we are pet friendly. I wouldnt worry about being put on the top floor. Most hotels usually try to keep guests with pets on the bottom floor so that it is easily accessible to the outside and by the side doors. She should be fine in the room, just put the Do not disturb sign on the door so that no hotel employees can go into your room while you are not there.

| I used to do housecleaning at a dog friendly hotel, sometimes people forget to put the 'DO NOT DISTURB' sign on the door and they let their dogs roam around the room and I always got a little surprise, lol. Just for safety measures, you should keep your baby in a crate. She will be completely fine. When I travel with my babies and I can not take them with me somewhere, I keep them in their crates and leave the alarm clock/radio on. It calms them down. ;3 |

| It always amazes me the breadth of knowledge available here on YT. Here is a question about leaving a Yorkie in a hotel room and not only several who have done that but also a hotel manager and housekeeper replies with helpful info! Amazing! I love this place!

| Definitely use your crate if she is crate trained when you leave her and don't forget to also use the "Do Not Disturb" sign. You might also want to put the crate in the bathroom to muffle any barking noise.
