"I called our hotel but
the response was 'I'm sorry, sir. We've been booked up for months.' With sudden inspiration, I called back.... This time I
said, 'Hello, this is Shana's human...' and this time the response was, 'Oh yes, sir. Come on down. We always have a room
for you.' It really puts you in your place when your dog can get a hotel room, but you can't." ~ J. Emmett Black,Jr., on how all the staff at a certain Holiday Inn knew his dog by name, but not
him. Crime was reduced whenever Shana stayed there; she's a 120 pound Great Dane.

"I've been in the hotel business
over thirty years. Never yet have I called the police to eject a disorderly dog during the small hours of the night. Never
yet has a dog set the bedclothes afire from smoking a cigarette. I've never found a hotel towel or blanket in a dog's suitcase,
nor whiskey rings on the bureau top from a dog's bottle. Sure the dog's welcome.
P.S. If he'll vouch for you,
come along too." ~ Unknown hotel manager's
