"A Guidebook to Taking Your Dog to Paris", the first in a series of European travel guidebooks written for dog owners, is now available for purchase. The book was written by Juli Feinberg, the owner of an English Toy Spaniel named "Lilly".

According to the book's press release:

Written in the voice of Lilly, an English Toy Spaniel, the guides include relevant information for preparing to take your dog on a European trip, such as obtaining necessary health certificates, packing, and preparing for departure. Also provided is valuable location-specific information, such as dog-friendly restaurants and hotels, the name of a local veterinarian, and navigating public transportation.

Feinberg has five additional guidebooks in the works, covering Rome, Florence, Milan, Tuscany, and Austria, to be available early this Spring. Thirteen more guides are planned for 2005 and 2006. The series of books are published under the title, "Lillystravels".

The press release goes on to say:

Lillystravels "go beyond a walk in the park" guidebooks are the only guides currently available for traveling with dogs to Europe. Juli Feinberg, president of Lillystravels, dispels the common misconception that dogs must be quarantined in European countries. "Although England, Ireland, Scotland, and Sweden do currently require quarantines," she said, "other European countries do not."

Anyone interested can purchase the book online at Lillystravels for $12.95.
