Dog-Friendly Motels

Searching for a dog-friendly motel?

Looking for a dog-friendly motel?

Hey y’all . . . here’s a link you might find useful.  It’s for dog-friendly motels across the U.S.  I have been made aware of its existence through an agility newsgroup that I belong to.

Here is a copy of the email I received the other day:

AgilityDogMotels.com is finally open! It’s FREE and easy and is a labor of love I’ve been working on. Dog owners have unique needs and priorities when it comes to staying in motels. TripAdvisor and other sites are helpful but often don’t have answers to important questions like is there enough grass for your dog to potty and are you going to have to carry those heavy crates a mile from the car into your room. This is a forum where you can review motels you and your dogs have stayed in from a performance dog owners’ perspective. And be sure to check in here before making reservations for your next trial.

It’s FREE (although I hope to eventually sell some minor advertising to make it self-supporting – right now hosting costs are out of my pocket). You do need to register in order to write a review. Registration is EASY. When you register, you’ll receive an email with a link to activate your account (this process helps prevent spammers). If you have any trouble with this process, please email: admin@agilitydogmotels.com and I’ll activate your account. Your first review will have to be approved but after that, your reviews will show up immediately. This process helps prevent obnoxious spam from showing up on our forum. If there are trial locations I’ve missed, please post them in the Add Trial Site forum. There is also an “En Route To” forum in every state for those places you’ve stopped at while you were heading somewhere else. You’ll see How to Post a Review in each forum. Please read this before posting as it will help us all stick to a similar format. Please feel free to cross post and forward this to everyone you know in the performance dog world.
Thanks, everyone and happy reviewing!

Help Rescue Animals From Cruelty

Pepsi Refresh ProjectWe need your help! The ASPCA is delighted to have been accepted into the Pepsi Refresh Project, an exciting campaign launched in January whereby Pepsi awards up to $1.3 million per month in grants to people, businesses and non-profits for those ideas that will have a positive impact in communities around the United States. The ASPCA has applied for a $250,000 grant which, if secured, would afford us the opportunity to further support the incredible work of our Field Investigations and Response team in rescuing animals from disasters, cruelty and neglect.

The ASPCA would use our Refresh Grant to purchase, equip and operate a second Animal Rescue Transport Vehicle to facilitate the swift and safe removal and re-homing of animals in danger. By supporting this project, you will be a hero for suffering animals who need our help.

Refresh Grants will be awarded to the ideas that receive the greatest number of votes. Only two ideas will win within the $250,000 category, so the competition is tough. We need your help! Go towww.refresheverything.com/aspcarescue to sign in and vote today, and every day, through August 31.Help us spread the word by telling everyone you know by email, Facebook and Twitter so they can join the fight against animal cruelty by voting for us.
