Me too. Asked to see the dog room at Villas SQ. Tile floor vs. carpeting. Guess the windows were closed -- I was bowled over by the kennel
smell. I would never stay in a dog room. But that's just me.
I see all rooms as dog rooms if negotiated properly. Just how I do it.
Worse case scenario, my fearless search and recovery Lab sleeps in my SUV. Not a problem.

You guys happy now? See what you're causing?
(Still love ya DK. Drinks are still on me.) |
I am happy that the filthiness of dogs in hotels is being discussed.
But I will be happier if i figure out how to stay out of filthy dog hotels.
Thank you for askig Lee.

2) How do you ,Freediverbrian, decide that you have the right or authority to tell me or anyone else how to think or act.
Even if you say please it is still rude, offensive, and wrong.

Therapy dogs can spread superbugs to kids, hospital finds
One U.S. health official said the findings add to the growing understanding that while interactions with pets and therapy animals can be beneficial,
they can also carry risk.
"Whether covered in fur, feathers or scales, animals have the potential to carry germs that make people sick," said Casey Barton Behravesh of the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
But there have been episodes of the superbug MRSA riding around on healthy-looking therapy dogs.

Always good to travel with Imodium (loperamide) and Pepto-Bismol or Kaopectate. Also carry amoxicillin.

Spoken like a true UNITITED STATES of AMERICA MARINE.
Semper fidelis.
Incidently, those over the counter remedies don't work on alot things.
But the superbugs in you won't have diarrhea. So atleast you have that going for you...

This board IS dieing ,David has to bump old posts to have new material to read And it is because of the negative attitude on this board . I am sorry
if I came off too strong but I think this board can add good and useful information, but too many times it sinks to the gutter and many baja travelers
looking for good and current information are turned off my the vile on this board. I am all for free speech but PLEASE turn the retoric down so Baja
Nomad can survive.

Baja Cactus in El Rosario, The hotel in Catavina and TerraSal all have dog friendly rooms. I have stayed at La Huerta in San Ignacio - was previously
dog friendly, did not know they no longer allow dogs. I ALWAYS put my own very large cover on the bed (and slip edge over the top edge) so as to keep
other dog hairs off me and my dog hairs off the hotel's bed. I hear Rice and Beans in San Ignacio is dog friendly too. Most places have an uncharge
for dogs as well as designated dog rooms.
While flying is sometimes an option, I choose to drive because 1.) I love the drive and 2.) I will never ever suffer my dog to fly again.

What was the original question? Ah yes - where can you stay if you're traveling with a dog? It kind of got lost with all the comments. Posts often
lead to conversations and that isn't necessarily bad I think. Sometimes the poster doesn't like where it goes though. If you're a major dog lover it
might be unpleasant to be reminded that not everybody likes sleeping in a room that has had a dog in it recently.

To those hotels already mentioned here I would add:
Terra Sol in GN - they have allowed pets in the past. All their rooms are on the ground floor, and exit directly into the parking area, making
off-hour walks easier/less disruptive to adjacent guests than some other properties.
IMO- One of the joys of travel in Baja is sharing the trip with friends & family, including pets. And while I worry about germs and cleanliness at
hotels in general- whether they allow dogs or not- that doesn't stop us from traveling.
We always take reasonable precautions to stay healthy, and avoid making matter worse when travelling with a dog. Over the years I've stayed in most of
the hotels mentioned here, and had a dog on most of those trips.
Years ago our companion was a large black lab (DEP), more recently a small gray poodle. I explain to the hotel operators a key advantage of poodles:
they don't shed.
Still- I carry a fleece travel blanket- and most of the time, both of us sleep on top of it. If it's cold: I bring in the sleeping bags.
Finally: I have found most hotels are willing to accept well-behaved dogs (esp smaller ones) if you ask nicely, even if signs state otherwise. That
happened once in GN, after a mishap inside my camper made it impossible to sleep inside while parked in the RV area behind Mallarimo.
The staff allowed me to stay in a room with the aforementioned poodle. It was low season, so there were plenty of rooms available.
So- it never hurts to ask.

I go to the front desk with my 4lb Yorkie under my arm and ask"are pets ok"? After they say yes I bring in the Baja dog and cats. But don't despair,
they don't sleep on the bed..😏

Ha! We've been tempted to adopt a few of those Baja dogs as well...so far: they have stayed at the beach.
