Dogs No Longer Bar Tourists At Leading Hotels

The Chicago Motor Club notes that four out of five hotels and up to nine out of ten will welcome dogs if owners provide a blanket for the pet to sleep on. Suggested approach is to register then tell the clerk the dog is in the car and will be brought in with its blanket later, ensuring a quiet stay.
