Have you heard "No Pets Allowed" one time too many? This book is your complete guide to finding hotels, campgrounds, private vacation rentals, B&Bs, outdoor cafés, doggie day-care centers, parks, and tourist attractions that not only "allow" dogs but welcome them with open arms.

This guide provides info for all budgets, as well as listings for emergency and holistic veterinarians, year-round events that benefit pet-adoption agencies and dog-welfare organizations. Author Trisha Blanchet has combed the region for information: eateries with outdoor service for you and your dog; pet-welcoming shops; historic sites for Washington, D.C., and the Mid-Atlantic region—Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania (including the Poconos), and northern Virginia. 40 black & white photographs, 10 maps, index.
