Some of these reponses are amazing... I understand that they are our pets and you have to take full resposnibility for them but man.. telling her not to go because she cant find someone to watch her dog for 1 night is ridiculous. ((rolling eyes)). I think if she was to confine her dog to a area, made sure it had its safe had clean pads, food and water it should be just fine. Like some of the others said leave a light or tv on for comfort. If she can get someone to come over would be great but the dog will survive 1 night alone.
I would never try to sneak my dogs into someplace they werent welcome no matter how small they are. Its all about respect. I wouldnt want to hear dogs barking all night long or go into a room that has hair all over it or smells like a pee when I paid for a room at a non pet friendly hotel. That would upset me big time. I was at a pet friendly hotel this past weekend. My dogs are not barkers, they dont shed but they are outside trained and refuse to use a potty pad. There was only one way out of the hotel to take my dogs out, the front door in front of the service desk. How would one who had an outside trained dog take their dog out in a non pet friendly hotel,if they only had one way out? Stuff it in your shirt? Let it pee and poo in the room???
I dont care what any of you say.. if its not a pet friendly hotel and you have your dog with you. The staff knows.. they may not say anything to you, because if they did they may loose your buisness but they know.
In 2 weeks my daughter has a dance competition and we are staying the entire weekend at a hotel where the competiton is being held. It is not pet friendly.. I will not be taking my dogs. I have a sitter already lined up. I hate leaving them home, they are my babies..however I will follow the rules..
Like someone already said.. to each their own right?
To the OP.. enjoy your night out!!
