well I bet we could get a few florida yorkies there..... we just have to agree on the date and maybe some activities..... Venice is nice.. very laid back (they said that is where the parents of the retirees live lol)

I came across this website in my web wanderings.

FloridaPets.net - The Web's #1 resource for all that is pet friendly in Florida

I know you are asking about FL but we just got back from Fort Morgan in AL the beach was dog friendly and the house we rented was right on the gulf. It was the first time Quincy saw a beach he loved it wore himself out everyday. Sorry if this is not what you are looking for but FL was right down the road.

First where is Venice in Florida ! I'm in East Orlando. A meet up sounds great !!!
What month r u tiring to do this meet up ? If we can start first with the time and place, I can check on friendly pet hotel or if no one mind maybe we can rent a house or a condo that's pet friendly, I will go either way.
First location , somewhere all of us would drive to. Maybe start a list and find out how many would go , and where they live.
I would take 2 furbabies w me., and I'm in East Orlando. Some of us can car pool. I'm in, where r we going, Lol!!!.

Venice is just south of Sarasota. I live about 2 hours from you. My condo association is dog friendly and has available units - I can check on that. I'm also open to renting a house if we can find one that will take multiple dogs without a huge $250 cleaning fee . I know certain hotels like La Quinta don't charge extra for pets. we don't "have" to plan an overnight thing but maybe we would attract some people from a little further away if it was more than just a 3 hour tour

I am open to suggestions as far as timing goes. I think we need a month or more padding to give people time to adjust their schedules. Could even be in the Fall if we really wanted to plan ahead and give the weather a chance to break a little

There is a boutique doggie shop here that hosts "Wine and Wet Noses" events on Fridays. She will schedule a private event if we would like. That is on St. Armand's Circle ( a very dog friendly shopping and eating and gathering place) Also Venice Dog Beach and there is a pet friendly outlet mall as well as SEVERAL outdoor eateries (such as The Old Salty Dog) that welcome pets!

Saturday's and Sunday's there are many different Farmer's Markets and Flea Markets (like The Red Barn) that welcome leashed pets. Possibly a Blues Fest or Wine Fest is scheduled to be coming up. I can check that out too

I've been doing some checking around. Most private home rentals will not accept more than 3 dogs. Those that will charge a $250ish non refundable fee.

We would also be hard pressed to find a home that would sleep more than 6 for less than $1500 for the weekend and most have a weekly minimum.

The condo's here in my complex will run about $1000 with a one week minimum as well. They will not sleep very many without air mattresses

La Quinta in Sarasota will rent us a block of rooms (10 minimum) for $70 per room per night. Would cost more like $85 if we have less than 10 rooms booked and paid for. This price includes breakfast. No extra charge for pets.

Homewood Suites will rent us a block of rooms (10 minimum) for $85 per room per night. This also includes breakfast (I think) and all of the suites have kitchens or kitchenettes. No extra charge for pets as far as I can see.


La Quinta is almost next door to

Oleary's Tiki Bar and Grill
there is this one too

Which are both a verified dog friendly bar/restaurant

thoughts???

Just posting this again for cross referencing. Neither board is high hitting with posters so I'm attempting to keep everyone up to date

I guess we need to start a RSVP list......and also set a tentative date.We can't move very far ahead without a date I would guess!

Does everyone agree on a Friday night to Sunday afternoon(ish)? Nobody has to stay 2 nights. I guess we could plan on Saturday being our main day!
