Hotels increasingly allow guests with dogs nationwide
A survey of 200 representative hotels shows about 80 percent admit guests with dogs, with many offering small dog policies, liability statements, and special kennels or rooms. Some hotels require dogs to be leashed in public areas and misbehaving pets banished to kennels. For those not allowing dogs, about half arrange nearby kennels. An upstate New York manager proposes practical rules for dog owners to ease objections. The Gaines Dog Research Center urges travelers to mention dogs when reserving and to seek dog-friendly rooms for convenience.
