I'm trying to read about the different cities, I've been looking on dogfriendly.com and Alexandria seems to have a good amount of parks, attractions, stores, etc... that are dog friendly.
They have canine cruises, but unfortunately they are on Thursdays, I think it's the second Thursday of every month. One place does doggie happy hours there too, but again on a Thursday! I guess we could always go early if VA gets picked!!

I voted San Diego just cause after graduating high school, getting married 4 days later.... that is where my new hubby & I moved to for 2 1/2 yrs 15 years ago & I have wanted to go back soooo bad. I love it there.... but anywhere is fine with me. Having to miss this year was heartbreaking & I will go where it is.. !!!

I could do any of the East Coast optioins as well. I hope it is one of the E. Coast locations so I can go!

This is exciting and I'm voting later...I just wanted to get on this thread.

I voted for Virginia - Because it is close to NYC and because the date is in the middle of my husbands busy season, so if we were to go, it has to be close - YAY - I am so excited! I would LOVE to go

You all might go to DogFriendly.com® - Pet Travel Guides and City Guides for Dog/Pet Owners and check out all the cities on the list. I was just surprised at just how many places there were for you to take your dog in San Diego.

You're right i checked that site..there's ton of dog friendly beaches...maybe we can go to one. There's a lot of stuff to do there!

I have driven thru...but never stopped. It seems to be so beautiful there.
I did some research and there are at least 5 dog friendly resturants!
There is a park for pups and there is a dog friendly walking tour of old historic Savannah.
gets my vote.

I do have tons of family in Arlington but are of a different culture and dont believe animals belong in the house
It would be hard for me to go there.

I picked it because of it's proximity to me too. Also, my mom has a friend that lives there, if not close by, so that would cut the cost of a hotel. I've only been to Atlanta, never to Savannah....(isn't Savannah the historic part w/ the big river/lake w/ all the hotels by it?)

As it gets closer and the destination is picked, if it's in Savannah or NC, maybe we can get a couple other people from the Tampa area and all drive up together?
