Okay puppers, mom wants to go on a vacation this spring
but it has to be somewhere that is dog friendly. She doesn’t want to fly but drive. I don’t want to fly either but I also don’t
like taking long trips because sometimes it upset my tummy. This would be my first official vacation, she says she doesn’t want me to be stressed
because vacations are for relaxing and having fun. I have the true scottie temperament I am leery
of new people and places. She has
thought about renting a cabin at Beavers Bend in Broken Bow, Oklahoma and she
hasn’t ruled it out but been there done that.
She isn’t looking for anything fancy just somewhere to relax and kick
back, not really interested in taking in all the sights if I can’t partake in
it. She thought maybe Susie and Sidebits
might know some place in Oklahoma or maybe Casey and Cinderella would know
somewhere here in Texas. She even
thought about somewhere in Arkansas or Louisiana. I won’t lie she had been telling me that we
were going to Galveston to the beach but when it got closer to the time she
backed out partly because she and dad are workaholics but she also hates
driving through Houston. She said she
might have to suck it up and just do it if she can’t come up with something
better. If anyone has any suggestion
please suggest away.
Sorry, we have enough trouble in Oz trying to find a dog friendly place....where we want to go and for how much we want to pay...
ReplyDeleteGood luck. We think the beach would be GREAT!

We say Austin, TX...We used to live there and it is VERY dog friendly...plus it is probably only a few hours away from y'all depending where you are in Texas...it's not TOO expensive either!! Mama can give you more info if you want..just leave us a comment or email us!

Austin is about 5 hrs south of us. Our email address is on the barkday calendar and on the Christmas card list we would love some ideas.
DeleteI've heard that Midland-Odessa is the garden spot of the world. You can take it to the bank because someone from Lubbock said it.
ReplyDeleteWe live in Plano.... Austin is pretty dog friendly, but so are some other places, too....
ReplyDeleteTexas Parks and Wildlife magazine lists some dog friendly state parks...

And don't believe that stuff about Midland-Odessa...lol...even if it was true, with the oill boom going on right now, hotel rooms can be very hard to get!
I'd vote for Galveston, but I's a beach lovin pup.
ReplyDeleteNo help from us over the pond Sully but we are sure you will get some great suggestions. Have a terrific Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Angel Maggie and I always vacationed on Nantucket so we vote for the beach! Molly hasn't been to Nantucket yet and this won't be her lucky year either.
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots♥

We aren't familiar with that part of the world, but we are sure you will find a pawsome place to vacation.
ReplyDeleteCA cause I live here. SanDiego is very dog friendly

Mum really liked San Antonio when she was there, but since she selfishly left me in Nebraska, she cannot vouch for it's dog friendliness...
ReplyDeleteEdgar and his mum
We thinks you should come to Keosauqua Iowa cos we have lots of lakes, and the river, so wesa could go fishing, and there is a big cannon right next to ours house, and we could practice shooting you out of it, and well the list just goes on and on....

Hmmm, I am more of a camping Cairn myself and not really big on the beach even though I live in Florida. However, I do LOVE St. Augustine because they are over-the-top dog-friendly and it is relaxing there.

Can't help Sully. Ma's been all overs Oklahoma, butts it's been ages and doesn't know any place off hand that is really doggie furiendly. I hopes some Southern Pals can help you find a FABulous place!!! There are all kinds of dog furiendly places here in CA, butts that might be too looong of a drive.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!!
Kisses,

Oh we like going to Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill in Harrodsburg, Kentucky for our retreat. They have become dog friendly. It is our cup of tea. You know Susie and Sudebite would probably allow you to stay in their hiddey hole if Oklahome is your cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend

Ok, you asked, try the Quartz Mountain Lodge at Lake Altus, about 15 miles north of Altus. Nice Lodge, good food, show they have a golf course, Dad has camped in the park and had a week end ride. They have also gone down there for New Years Eve party (580)563-2424

Vacations with Scotties are always fun! I once went to San Antonio, Texas but couldn't bring Heather and Mr. K along since I flew. Next time I go to Texas, it'll have to be an extended road trip so they can experience it, too. Let us know where you end up going! Much love, The Scottie Mom.
ReplyDeleteThere have hot springs in Missouri and Arkansas. My peeps liked Branson and St Louis. Texas is nice too. Last summer they went to Austin and yes very dog friendly. San Antonio is nice too. Mom wasnt too impressed with Galveston, way too much seaweed in the water, she said yuk. Now South Padre.....thats a whole new ballgame!!

Vacations are the best! I was born at Green Acres Gardens in Texas. They have a B&B there. Linda loves scotties and would take extra special care of you. I LOVED the gardens. My mom, Whitney, is the sweetest scottie around!
