The Dog Lover's Companion to Seattle 2 Ed:

Rating:
Summary: Most complete book I've seen!
Review: Add this to your travel reference library! Not only does this book cover the most amazing part of North America, it includes excellently researched dog-friendly references and rates them on 4-paw scale (aren't we dog-lovers silly!). The author has taken the time to ask about the definition of "small" dog so I'm not wasting time on places that preclude my 80-pound love puppy. I have used it for park and lodging information in the Seattle and Victoria, BC areas and have found all to be accurate. The book covers the Seattle metro area, 11 counties in Western Washington and parts of British Columbia. Be advised that if you are traveling to Seattle with your pooch, it lacks the most current info on Seattle's trial off-leash program. Call Seattle or King County Animal Control for accurate, up-to-the-moment sites and restrictions which changes as often as the City Council and Parks Department like. If only this author would do a Portland version! They do have Bay Area, California, Boston and Atlanta versions as well. Happy reading & traveling! Woof!

Review: Most books only list lodgings that accept pets-- this book lists all kinds of things to do with your pet-- like outdoor concerts, restaurants, etc. This is the stuff you really need to know when vacationing with your pet. I, too, would love to see a Portland version!
