Dog Friendly Bed & Breakfast Opens in New Hampshire
Dog Friendly Bed & Breakfast Opens in New Hampshire
The Lazy Dog Inn invites dog owners to bring their four-legged
companions with them for bed & breakfast.
Chocorua, NH (PRWEB) - August 23, 2004 -- The Lazy Dog Inn
calls itself a “truly dog friendly bed and breakfast”. And
that comes as a welcome relief for over 10-million people
per year who hit the road with their pets; 80% with dogs.
Providing both two-and-four legged guests traditional New
England hospitality in a historically-rich 160-year-old farmhouse,
the Lazy Dog Inn offers comfortable and welcoming accommodations.
 Dog
guests have access to a climate controlled “Doggie Lodge”
where doggie daycare is provided at no additional charge in
a secure fenced play area with agility equipment for hours
of fun and exercise. And lest one think that the master was
forgotten, there’s a well-equipped exercise room for every
guest’s use too. Guestrooms with clever names such as “Sit
and Stay Awhile Suite”, “Fetch Me a Quilt” or “Rollover Rose”
allow man to sleep with his (or her) best friend amidst newly
decorated rooms, and doggie beds are provided if requested.
They’ve thought of every last detail for doggie and master
comfort – right down to cleaning supplies in the bathrooms,
should accidents happen.
Seven doggie-decorated rooms with private or shared baths
welcome guests with turn-of-the-century antiques, a sumptuous
daily breakfast and a relaxing atmosphere, close to all that
the Mt. Washington Valley offers.
The Lazy Dog Inn is ideally located in scenic Chocorua, NH.
Guests are encouraged to enjoy excursions down to the Chocorua
River with Rover or Fifi, or on public trails in nearby Tamworth,
where dogs are welcome. Hiking and dog-paddling in nearby
lakes and rivers, along with fields for throwing and retrieving
are available not only during the dog-days of summer, but
in spring and fall too. Come winter, cross country trails
for winter treks or ski touring are also nearby. Should guests
choose to explore on their own throughout Mt. Washington Valley,
hours of entertainment are available for every four-legged
guest at the Lazy Dog Doggie Lodge. Here, weave poles, a tire
jump, a really cool tunnel, an obstacle ladder and a teeter
tawter keep active dogs busy throughout the day.
If rest and relaxation is what guests seek, dogs are allowed
in all common rooms (except the dining room, where health
codes won’t allow it), as long as they’re with their masters
and in all guest rooms too. Relax by the fire, read a new
or dog-eared book, enjoy a complimentary cup of tea or hot
chocolate and cookies from the bottomless cookie jars – one
for guests and another with bones for their dogs.
Dog-lovers, Steve and Lauren Sousa, along with their two
golden retrievers Meghan and Molly, opened the Lazy Dog Inn
on Memorial Day 2004 with the intention of offering those
who, like themselves, love to spend time with their dogs a
welcoming place to vacation. “We wanted to create a totally
hospitable place for those who enjoy traveling with their
dogs to come for getaways,” said Steve Sousa. The Lazy Dog
Inn has accomplished a truly dog-friendly environment, in
a historic farmhouse that their masters will enjoy too.
And to insure that they stay top-dog, accommodations are
not available here for cats or other pets. Of course a few
restrictions must apply. Puppies beyond 12-weeks are welcomed,
but vet papers showing up-to-date vaccinations are requested.
And to insure that every dog’s whim is considered, a doggie-profile
sheet is requested with each reservation.
Nightly rates range from $95 to $125, with no additional
fee for dogs. Rates include a full breakfast for Mom and Dad,
and unlimited doggie treats for Bowser. Call 888-323-8350
for reservations, rates and availability. In today’s dog eat
dog world, it’s nice to know there’s a finally place for relaxing
getaways, where couples can go to relax together with their
four-legged friends.
