Taking your Pets on Vacation

It's time for many to start making their vacation plans.  All year long most of us look forward to taking some time off to travel, visit friends or just relax.  Our plans are created around every member of the family, including our pets.  However, travelers often feel restricted by limited choices on destinations and hotels that allow pets. Don't get discouraged and think your best friend can't come along - here are some helpful hints to make this a pet-filled summer vacation.
