“Dogs Welcome”
A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation. He wrote:
I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?”
An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who wrote:
SIR: “I’ve been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I’ve never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware or steal pictures off the walls or use them as a coloring book. I’ve never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I’ve never had a dog run out on a hotel bill.
Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And, if your dog will vouch for you, you’re welcome to stay here, too.”

You all have a great week and keeping loving those dogs of yours!

Great set of photo’s Paul. And Like others have stated. Love the dog being carried… Some dogs go the extra Mile for their owners, its so good to see how some Dog owners go the extra Mile for their pets too 🙂

I think many dog caring persons would go that extra mile. It seems to come from the joy and love of having a dog (or 9!) in one’s life. 😉
