The Ultimate Guide to Dog Friendly Vacations

I’m always looking for a way to take more dog friendly vacations. Chuy Chihuahua has traveled more than some humans. When he was just a puppy we went to Texas and he became “famous” while we toured  the Riverwalk in San Antonio! Chuy’s been all over the state of Virginia, the Outer Banks of NC, DC, Nashville, Las Vegas, the Hoover Dam, and Houston . . . just to name  a few! Summer  time  is here and that means it’s time for summer vacation! There’s no reason you have to leave your dog behind when there’s so many dog friendly destinations all over the US.

We’ve created The Ultimate Guide to Dog Friendly Vacations to help you get inspired to plan your next vacation with your  dog! Our guide is broken down by regions within the US. If you’re flying, I highly recommend checking out 10 Air Travel Tips for Small Dogs and 10 Secret Hacks for a Successful Dog Friendly Road Trip.
