Traveling With Your Dog

Traveling with your dog is a fantastic way to forge and strengthen the human+pet bond. You get to introduce your dog to new and fun activities, enjoy a change of scenery, and create lasting memories. While it takes a bit more planning on your part to take your dog on vacation, it isn’t difficult and it’s certainly worth the effort.

Even though an increasing number of hotels now welcome dogs, they can be a bit tricky to locate. That’s why I created the specialty travel website, http://www.dogwonderful.com/. I came to this endeavor after 20+ years as an entrepreneur in the travel industry, owning and operating dog friendly hotels throughout the country. I saw a need for a website that allowed users to easily search for pet friendly hotels, using familiar interfaces such as those found on major online travel sites like Travelocity or Priceline. I also wanted to couple the travel booking engine with top-quality content. DogWonderful’s articles focus primarily on dog friendly travel and vacation ideas, but also include how-tos, product reviews, and fun stuff like contests and giveaways. The other major feature of DogWonderful is that we contribute 10% of any commissions and fees earned on travel bookings to our dog-related charity partners.

So be part of this growing pet trend! Check out DogWonderful and start planning a vacation with your dog today.
