The world is changing and now hotels and resorts are thinking of the pet and thier pets as well when travelling. Things are changing for travelling for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;abbylane&lt;br /&gt;www.heavenpturns.com</description></item><item><title>Pet Friendly Hotels In Knoxville</title><author>checkers@designermixes.org (checkers)</author><link>http://www.designermixes.org/Forum/Topic.aspx?TOPIC_ID=147</link><category>Pet-Friendly Locations</category><pubDate>Wed, 18 Mar 2009 15:37:05 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://www.designermixes.orgTopic.aspx?TOPIC_ID=147</guid><description>If you&apos;re travelling to Knoxville for a ball game or anything else the Hilton Downtown and the Crown Plaza Downtown are both VERY pet friendly,   Crown Plaza has a small charge - but Hilton has never charged me.</description></item><item><title>Pet friendly in Las Vegas</title><author>abbylane@designermixes.org (abbylane)</author><link>http://www.designermixes.org/Forum/Topic.aspx?TOPIC_ID=24</link><category>Pet-Friendly Locations</category><pubDate>Thu, 01 Jan 2009 14:33:30 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://www.designermixes.orgTopic.aspx?TOPIC_ID=24</guid><description>I recently accompanied my husband on a business trip to Las Vegas.  Since I wasn&apos;t planning on going to any shows or anything where I couldn&apos;t bring my dog, I looked for a place that would allow pets to stay.  The only hotel in Vegas that is pet-friendly is the Westin.  It is one block off the strip and very nice.  It is small and low-key, but does have a small casino.  The people were very nice and love your pups.  There were lots of other people with dogs of all sizes staying there.  There is a $35.00 non-refundable cleaning fee.&lt;br /&gt;Leslie&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 3 replies, with the last one on 1/1/2009 at 2:33 PM by abbylane&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reply: Hi there:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think pet owners will find that there will be more and more places offering resources for people with pets. Pets are becoming more and more a part of people&apos;s lives so if the vacation outlets want to attract everyone then they will start to make more available facilities for people with pets. They will want to compete with other hotels and vacation spots then they will need to be open to pets as well as general public. It will start to be the new norm among vactation areas. I think it is great that pet owners share with other pet owners what they find out while travelling. This will make it so much easier to be in the know while travelling. After all we all love our pets.&lt;br /&gt;abbylane&lt;br /&gt;www.heavenpeturns.com</description></item></channel></rss>
