a thorough and fun to read guide to "dog travel"

The Dog Lover's Companion is a great book to enjoy leafing through in the winter when you're starting to think about places to go when the weather warms up. The information about natural attractions, for example is very accurate; I don't blame the authors for not always having dog lodging policies up to date; I know places change ownership frequently. This is a great first starting point, but you have to go on the internet to make sure the places you're interested in going to are still "pet friendly." Overall, though, I've found several great places to stay in the book, as well as some nice hikes I would have been unaware of, and I can't give this book less than five stars.

A MUST for any dog owner in New England!

As a resident of Connecticut, I found it a daunting task to find places where my dog was accepted. This book took all the guess work out of who allows them and makes life a LOT easier! I was also surprised to find a few eateries in my own town which allow patio eating with my furry friend, which is a welcome surprise. Definitely, any dog owner who lives in New England or is planning on a visit here needs this book. It is much more extensive than most other dog travel guides, including a ranking system and descriptions of all places included, as well as some cute anecdotes of the authors' own experiences with their pooches at these places.

you will never want to leave them home again!

Like most people we love new england and especially the berkshires (lenox,stockbridge,ect)or a gettaway up to maine. I was always jealous of people that I meet with their dogs, and always yearn to go on vacation with our pets instead of worrying how they are doing at home with a petsitter or in a kennel somewhere. now, thanks to this book I never realized how many hotels and b & b's allowed pets! this book makes travels with your fido so much easier and they wont just be sitting in the hotel room bored, either. There are so many places for them to go to that are mentioned in this guide book, they can enjoy themselves as well. (after all, they are on vacation too, right)?My dogs and I thank would like to thank the authors of this book from the bottom of our hearts! thank you, thank you!!cant wait to buy your new edition about New York!

Great Resource

I found this book exceptionally helpful for planning our vacation with our dogs. The places listed are great for taking your dog, and the book contains a variety of subjects: places to stay, places to eat, places to go have fun (hiking, beaches, etc.), and also lists events that are happening in the area. The only problem I had was that some prices have changed, and that there was some inside information omitted; for example, the beaches in Gloucester are leash free after the life-guards have left, even though the signs at the beach say "no dogs allowed." We missed out on some serious beach time because we didn't know that tidbit until the end of our visit. Just make sure you follow up (they include phone numbers for every spot listed) if you're counting on price or hours or something.

Another fantastic title in the series!

There should be one of these books for every state/region in the country! This book expands upon the Boston book Downey and Lau wrote (which is also essential, I think, if you live around Boston - because it has more of those area listings.) Anyway, this book covers all New England states. Each walking place is given a rating of 1-4 paws (stars), and a symbol is shown if you can walk your dog offleash, if you can control him/her. My dog and I have gone to terrific places all over MA and New Hampshire (we're going to go further this spring). I would not have known about these awesome spots if not for this resource. The only hard part will be deciding where to go!I recommend this book to every dog owner I know, enthusiastically, and without any reservations!
