Banff would be nice.

We live in San Diego Ca. and have to say Fiesta Island is the best pet-friendly destination. There is wonderful Dog Park, with a fenced in area, but also has a beach area for the doggies to run and play. You can put a leash on and just walk around the rest of Fiesta Island and take in the beautiful sights. Plenty of dog friendly hotels to stay at.

San Diego is the best pet friendly destination. There are several dog beaches, that are clean, friendly, and safe for all of the family. There are many restaurants that welcome your pets, along with many hotels. San Diego is such a beautiful place, that you and your pets will enjoy.

My Favorite Pet-Friendly Destination is the Best Western Beachfront Inn in Habor, Oregon. Very Dog friendly with the beach a few steps outside your room. From Grants Pass Oregon our hometown it is just a couple of hours drive and great weekend getaway.

Tons of space to run and a great wooded area for shade and exploring. There's one water fountain and is a mid-play meeting place. Lots of puppies to play with.

I love all these dog parks that people are going to up above here.-now Ive looked for some when we travel-thats so cool. We love to take our pups with us to the lakes when we go the the cabin-they like to go to the North shore of Superior so going to try out that one dog park that someone liked above when we are there next time-thanks for sharing everyone. I am going to look for dog parks along the way on our travels from now on.

My favorite spot would be a campground I go to. He loves to get out and run around and venture the outdoors.

Where we go camping at Versailles National Park - he loves it there!

I would say the national parks in the area

My favorite trip with our dog, Lily, is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. There's wide open spaces and lots of trails to take her on!

See Ya Later ranch is a dog-friendly winery in Okanagan Falls, BC. They celebrate the legacy of Major Hugh Fraser, who owned the land back in the early 1900s and loved dogs. Not only do they make great wines and have the best view of pretty much any winery in the region, but they not only allow but have special days for your four-legged friend.

We've been road tripping' up the California/ Oregon coast with our two besties and I have to say Oregon is undoubtably the best pet friendly, especially with the beaches open to all. We stayed two nights in Cape Blanco and it was magnificent with the lighthouse & miles of beaches!

We like to pick a place on the Oregon Coast and take long day trips up and down the coast and surrounding places. It is beautiful, peaceful a great place to let us and our dog, Bear, enjoy the day. We like to stay in the same hotel because we have to set up my husband's dialysis machine and like to leave it in one place as much as possible and this allows us to vacation and take care of his needs without spending the majority of your time packing and unpacking heavy bags.
Most important, we can take the dog in the car, let him run on the beach, which is his fav thing to do, and we get to spend time in our favorite vacation state.

We Love staying in Pigeon Forge Tennessee

The Best Western White HOuse Inn, in Bangor, Maine. It has a mowed Dog Path that meanders thru a field.

Anyplace that allows pets, here in Wisconsin.

Have to agree with @Jill H the Oregon Coast is the best place to be.

Disney World Orlando

My favorite pet-friendly destination is around downtown Amelia Island, FL!

DisneyWorld-they have a beautiful kennel area and visits are available all the time. Very well taken care of!!

Me and my pet's favorite destination is Lake Superior in Michigan. He would get so excited and jump out of the car and run to the lake and frolic and look at me as if saying "are you coming or not" that water is so COLD, but he loves it.

Disney World-they have a beautiful kennel that is like a hotel for pets. It's so well taken care of and visits are encouraged at any time.

I have kitties so the best place for them are stay-cations. However, sometimes Mommy and Daddy need a trip away for a night or two.

We love to take our dogs to Ocala national forest where they can run and swim in the fresh cool water springs.

We are going this weekend up to Mammoth Lakes to go camping and we are taking our dog, She enjoys getting out in the wilderness and watching all the wild life.

Our dog loves when we head to vancouver island - he loves visiting with my whole family (and seeing his mom - my mom's dog!) The best part is staying at the Best Western Plus in Kamloops - they are dog friendly and love Calvin. We went out for dinner one time only to come back and find Calvin sitting on the counter welcoming guests - they love him (and make travelling so much easier!)

we love taking our dogs camping, then they can bark and run and have fun. One or two hotels have allowed us to take in one big dog and 2 little one. they are well behaved.

My favorite trip with my pet was the cross country trip we took this summer

Disneyworld, fort wilderness

I have actually never traveled with my dog, but if I got the chance I would love to go to a nice Florida beach with her, one that allows pets of course :)

I have liked Waterton Lakes National Park the best.

I really have not had a problem with any place I go, Best Western has been very accomodating for my pet.. I am a ball umpire and I take my SEEING EYE DOG where ever I go. ".STRIKES" is my dogs name. I had to call her that because she has no BALLS. She is the friendliest dog on the diamond and at BEST WESTERN HOTELS.

ALL PLACES MY PET DOG "STRIKES" GOES, WE DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM. I FIND IT HARD TO ISOLATE A PARTICULAR AREA.

Love, love, love the Best Western @ the Harbor in Brookings, OR. The beach is a dogs playground, safe place for the dog kids to run. Not only that, the location is perfect, right down the street from good eats!

Actually i have no pets because of severe allergies. I love hotels with no animal and no smoking policies.

My daughter just got a baby yorkie for her 2nd Birthday! We adore her! My daughter loves her! We are planning on taking a trip to Kemah , Tx and Cukie the dog will join us of course! I'm hoping to stay at a per friendly hotel to keep Cukie close by us! We love our yorkie!

The whiteshell in manitoba. Tons of camping, water, fishing and beaches. Family and pet friendly!

I would drive back to P.E.I (from Waterloo, ON) so Lucy could find and dig up her favorite toy that she buried on Greenwich beach. Poor puppy misses her snuggly!

My dog enjoyed trips to eastern Canada parks for long walks on well maintained trails, it was a chance for her to get good exercise and for me to enjoy the nature.

I always see the most pets out and about on the West coast so they seem like especially pet-friendly destinations. One of my favorites to visit is San Diego.

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada is a nice place for a short stay... There is a lot to see and i have a few friends who live there and that i would enjoy meeting during my stay !

We love to take our Border Collie and our Papillon to the Best Western Inn at Face Rock in Bandon, Oregon. We let them chase balls and frisbees on the beach at Devil's Kitchen park. The staff at the motel are great and we try to go there every month.

I love to take my Labrador retriever Blackie to the beaches in Jekyll Island, Ga. We love walking along the beach and just sitting while waiting for the sun to go down.It is a pet friendly beach so we are able to make friends with other pet lovers while visiting.

Ludington, Michigan~~Sand dunes!

I had a pit bull who was the family baby. Our best trip was when we went to a state park and the lodge was pet friendly and let us keep him. It was the best time. He died shortly after.

www.shespeaksbark.com

haven't really taken pets on many trips, would like the opportunity!

Florida! Lots of beaches and grassy areas for my dog to run around!

Our dogs enjoy any road trip with us, but we especially love traveling to Colorado.

I take my dogs everywhere. They have traveled from Bar Harbor, Maine to Key West Florida. Their favorite place had to be Bar Harbor because it is so pet friendly. Baxter even had ice cream there!

The rest areas along I-75 all the way from Michigan to Florida are pet-friendly. There's always a nice area to walk the dog.

My vote is for Whistler, BC. Their great pedestrian mall is a super place to stroll your pooch. Most restaurants on the mall allow you to be seated so that you are seated in the outdoor area and able to watch out for your dog while enjoying a drink or snack!

Oregon Coast all the way from Washington Border to California Border!!! Enjoyed lots of hiking trails and beaches.

Best vet is Oregon Coast! Enjoyed the hiking trails and beaches!!! Beautiful scenery.

My favorite trip will be packing up my fur baby in the car and heading south with all the other snowbirds. Stops on the way will include Best Westerns of course - the most Pet Friendly place I know to rest my head.

We take our family dog to Parksville on Vancouver Island in Canada. The shallow warm waters and miles and miles of endless sea, sea creatures and fawna and driftwood just make a wonderful trip for us and our favourite friend "Cooper"

We look forward to going Parksville British Columbia Canada. The wide open spaces sea breeze, warm waters, drift wood. Just an amazing spot for our family and our furry friend

We love Mammoth Cave in Kentucky! Beautiful country And, my little pound hound loves nature.

My favorite trip with my dogs was driving across the country from NC, to California, then up the coast to Washington. We then flew to Alaska, and lived there for a year. From the Appalachian mountain range, across deserts, visiting the Grand Canyon, running on California and Oregon beaches, hiking in the Redwood forest, then enjoying the beauty of Alaska, hiking and swimming, this was the fondest memory and best trip ever with my 4-legged friends. They have both passed away, but they had the time of their lives traveling with me, standing up on the armrests, ears blowing in the breeze, enjoying the ride!

Nothing beats a stay on the beach with our pup. For a quick getaway we go to Monterey, CA and stay right on the beach at the Best Western Beach Resort in Monterey. it is beautiful and soooo relaxing!!! and they allow dogs!

Our favorite "vacationing with pets" destination has to be the Pacifica Lighthouse Best Western for a number of reasons! First, our pet is actually a big african grey parrot named Nelson that loves to travel! We frequently take small getaway vacations to this particular BW and their pet rooms are really outstanding. They are literally just a few steps away from the hottub (for mommy and daddy to enjoy), ; and have a perfect ocean view & table near the window where Nelson likes his cage to be so he can watch the ocean and the birds playing outside - he is mesmerized for hours with this!

Nelson also loves to shower a lot at home and it's no different when we travel. This BW really delivers a nice shower and he will sit in the bathroom making kissy noises and singing while he has a shower. Sometimes he's skittish and judgmental about other hotel showers he's been in - but never at this BW! It's as if they have crafted their pet rooms just for his enjoyment!

we take our pups with us fishing at the campgrounds in Ontario Canada as they love the water and going on the trails.

Little trips to the local dog park, as long as he can meet some new "friends" he is happy.. Close to home, we can do it often

Hello
the best western in seaside oregon was a great stay for my dog and I. The hotel was fantastic and otto could run free on the beach!!! wish we were still there:)

Rocky Top Tennessee

My favorite trip to take is camping with my dogs! We have a lot of fun hiking and sleeping in the tent.

I hear Portland is the best.

I love taking my poodle Iggy to the beach. It is such a thrill to watch him playing in the waves!

I love to take the dogs to Padre Island. They don't care for the water but they love playing on the beach

I love taking my pampered scottish fold kitty, Mortimer to the south shore, Nova Scotia with me. He loves spending time in the country and the change of pace it gives him (and me) from the city.

I like camping as a dog-friendly vacation. My dog loves all the wonderful scents he can pick up outdoors, he doesn't have to be perfectly clean, and he loves outdoor cooking!

We love taking our dogs to state parks, or other places where we can rent a cabin.

I used to take my cat on road trips in my truck. He would sit and look out the window and take a nap in the sun. Every other cat I've had HATES travel but this one was different. I did take him to the California coast once and he did not like that. I think he was afraid of the sound of the waves! In any case, he didn't seem to mind highways.

We haven't brought our dog on any travels but would like to.If I was to I heard there is a dog beach in New Smyrna Beach,FL.He would love it along with my kids.

We haven't brought our dog on any travels yet but would like to.If we did I heard there is a dog beach in New Smyrna Beach,Fl.He would love it along with my kids.

we love going to dog shows with our pets. fun for us and them.

The Great Smokey Mountains of Tennessee are excellent for dogs to run and play and explore.

My favorite trip to take my dog is to the local park where everyone brings dogs. He gets so excited with his head hanging out the window when we get there he is ready to fly out the door and start playing and walking. He loves just riding in the car too. He is a Husky and never gets tired. I get tired before he ever will.

I am a foster "mom" for Adopt A Spot Dalmatian Rescue. Every October, I pack up Scooter (my first rescue wound up as my forever friend) and our current foster dal(s) and head to Bennett's Creek Park in Chesapeake. Believe me, you will be seeing spots by the end of the day! We get together for good fun, fellowship, and of course, love for our dogs. It's wonderful to see my former fosters with their forever families. We make a weekend of it, staying at the pet-friend Super 8 and enjoying the company of other families that have travelled with their spotted children.

Definitely Whistler BC! This resort town is extremely pet friendly! Hiking trails, dog parks, pet friendly hotels and you can even bring your dog into the local shelter for a do it yourself bath!

I love to take my dog to the beach, anyone is fine he loves them all

On the road from CA to MT. Lots of places to stop and enjoy nature, especially with dogs.

I love going to the south carolina coast.. hilton head or myrtle beach or even one of the islands....

Banff

we live in a major city and although our dog Rojo has a backyard, it's not same when we travel to my parents house in rural newfoundland where there are wide open spaces and it's peaceful, no cars, or ambulances running down the road, he's spends hours just lying out on the deck soaking in the sun and the cool breeze.

Algonquin park.

Horseshoe Valley Barrie Ontario

Tobermory I would have to say is the most pet friendly town I have every visited. Everywhere you go, people and merchants have bowls of water out and dog biscuits available for your dog. You can even take them on the boat tour with you. I was very impressed with the hospitality of this town and wouldn't hesitate to go back again.

I also wanted to say that the Best Western Hotel in Niagara Falls, ON that is located near the new Fallsview Casino was also very accomodating with allowing you to bring your pets. This was a surprise for me as I haven't run across very many large chains that allow pets. Thanks Best Western for thinking of my "WHOLE FAMILY"

An escape to Freeport Maine and a visit to the Maine Maritime Museum.

San Diego, California. Thanks for the contest!

San Diego. Thanks for the contest!

My favorite destination with my pooch is camping way up in the mountains close to where we live. The best vacations for kids and dogs are camping, hiking and exploring all that nature has to offer.

New Orleans! Its the most dog-friendly spot ive ever been. They have their own dog parde at Mardi Gras, Barkus! A whole day of dogs dressed in costumes and riding in floats. Afterwards you can head on down to some of the "Dogs allowed" bars like the Bulldog to unwind with a beer and a cold bowl of water for your pet.

San Fransisco, CA

FLORIDA ALWAYS THE BEST.

chattanooga tn

I love to take my Sharpei/Bassett Chilidawg on road trips to Oklahoma and Arkansas. He loves to fish with me and camp out in our tent.

The best would be Timmins ON, where my parents stay during my mothers doctor's appointments. after a long drive you always make them feel at home and that their dog is always welcomed. thank-you!! it makes what they have to deal with so much easier.

My dog loves a nice long car ride to anywhere outdoors:) We usually go to Lake Koocanusa, BC

Tofino, BC as dogs can go on the beaches!

Visiting National Parks!

You cant get any better then that for a great vacation for you and your furry friend.

My pets favorite destination is anywhere we can go hiking! He tends to love going to GA the most!

San Diego has a beautiful dog park

The BEST WESTERN Greentree Inn was a most pet-friendly location for us and our dog when traveling. It is in Eugene Oregon and the front desk staff showed their love of pets when they took turns petting and playing with our dog! The
room was spacious and clean! We were offered a delicious complimentary continental breakfast in the morning--a perfect start to our day!

Montreal Quebec is pet friendly, many hotels cater to pets and have many parks to walk to.

Best Western on South Shore montreal is very pet friendly. Makes it great to visit and relax bringing pet. Caters to pets, there are parks, paths to walk pet. Just being able to bring pet with me is very comforting I relax more

We love going into the Appalachian mountains!

New York City, which is doggie crazy! Unlike the uptight midwest, Fido is allowed to be in restaurants and shops. In the midwest (and yes, you too, chicago!) the very same smelly people in bad clothing will complain if you dash in a supermarket with a pooch under your arm just to grab a carton of milk.

We find Oregon to be a very petfriendly place! We have been on the coast where restaurants allow pets on their patios and Portland has great pet friendly hotels and lots of place to take our pups out!

The best trips with our dog involve road trips to parks like Yosemite. That's where he gets run around and have fun. Ofcourse, it's fun for us too.

Banff would be a great place to take my dogs

Cottage Country is definitely a great place to go, pet friendly for sure.

We take our dog "Googles" on our yearly weekend trip to Lake Louise, Alberta. We love to walk the trails and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Is there anything better ? Beautiful picturesque mountainscape, my husband/ 8 year old chatterbug Evan and our dog Googles. What a lovely time it is !

Annually we take a trip to Lake Louise, Alberta. My husband George, our 8 year old Evan (fan of the phrase are we there yet ?) and our dog Googles. We mostly go hiking and walk the trails. Is there anything better than being in the outdoors ? Such a breathtaking picturesque view of mountainscapes, makes you happy to be alive. Great exercise, fresh air and good company. Sleep so good at night too.

I love to take my dog to anyplace that has a lake - he loves to swim!

My favorite pet friendly destination is anyplace in the woods of Upstate New York. There is nothing quite like a few days in the country for a curious city animal who is hungry for adventure. Thank you.

I've been taking my dog to MacGregor Point since she was a wee pup and she loves running out on all the rocks and boulders and swimming in the shallow waters.She also seems to love searching out snakes that hide in and under the rocks. She is a 12 year old chihuahua and we luckily had the chance to do so again this past summer!

my favorite pet friendly destination for me was when we went to Oysoyoos BC for a hockey tournament , it was awesome and glad to have our dog with us

I like to take my dog upstate New York to the Lake George / Adirondak region for lots of fresh air and long walks.

Me and my fiance drove across several provinces with our big fluffy kitty in the UHaul. He rather enjoyed looking at the Atlantic Ocean in PEI (but not going in!) Cats dont like travelling :( but they do love new places!

We love to Duluth MN and stay at the Best Western there.

We don't get to travel as much as we would like to so I don't know of a lot of places but our local park is great and is very pet friendly. We take our Sheltie, Bronson, there regularly and he loves it.

My dad's house in Ann Arbor, he spoils the pets. LOL. Both his cats are 20lbs overweight.

My fave pet friendly place is anywhere there are relaxing areas with plenty of running room,woods, and not many people.

my favorite pet place is Manasquan beach in Manasquan New Jersey.

The hiking trails of Manitoulin Island, because of the diversity of terrain, whether Bridal Veil Falls Trail, the Cup and Saucer Trail or just a meander down to Misery Bay, there are challenges for whatever size and stamina of dog that you have.

Victoria B.C

There is a good one in Minnesota in Deluth we used

BW Pet Friendly Motels are great - but our favourites are in San Diego, CA and Disneyworld, FL.

I think Northern Vancouver Island, where the dogs can run

Great Sand Dunes National Park, NM.

Lake Tahoe area

I'm afraid our dog is not a good traveller in the car- she goes out with us in the boat.

the Oregon Coast so we can walk and explore and play ball on the beach and in the water - what more could a dog ask for? (especially a Golden Retriever who LOVES the water!!)

Shirlington Dog Park in Arlington VA. It's large and fenced in. All the dogs are very friendly.

Algonquin Park in Ontario, Canada!

anywhere pets are allowed

Santa Fe NM

Cape Breton Highlands National Park, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada

The Cape Breton Highlands National Park is my favourite, pet-friendly destination. There are many level walking trails that permit dogs on leashes. Of the 27 trails in the park, many are level forest walks. A number of trails of ocean viewpoints and one can see pods of pilot whales making their way up the coast.

My dog goes crazy with the variety of smells and sounds these walks offer, she gets quite giddy. Fall is the best season to visit the park, the array of colours is fantastic.

Parks in Calgary

My favorite pet friendly destination is Muskoka Ontario.

Parks in Kingston ON

My favourite pet-friendly place is our family cottage in Ontario - so many places to explore and such entertaining stuff to get into...even the cat loves it....both critters always seem to find a sheltered sunny spot to curl up in and doze the afternoon away

Camp on shores of Lake Superior where our dog loves to run.

Bubeck Park in Schuylkill Haven, Pennsylvania.

I personally like BC, where my sister lives with her pets, that's a pet friendly house.

Laurelhurst Park!

I have enjoyed camping with pets, near Carmel, CA would be nice

Niagra Falsl there are tons of great hiking in the escarpment for you and your furry friend!

Niagara Falls for sure!

Camping and rafting at Ohiopyle park in southwestern PA.

West coast, port alberni, uculet, tofino
