Dogs Allowed or Dog Friendly?
Although more hotels are accepting pets, some are still far from dog friendly, actually making it hard to travel with your dog.
Now you'll almost always find dogs aren't allowed in all areas of the hotel, such as the restaurant, and maybe they charge for your pet to stay. However it's the places that don't welcome the dogs, have very little communal area for them, and having them there becomes a problem rather than a pleasure.

Be Prepared
Bring everything you need from home, or know what the hotel offer. Some dog friendly bedrooms come in beds or food, which is great, but be sure not to miss anything off the dog packing list.

Settle Them In
Stating in a hotel with you dog can be a little over whelming for them, meaning settling them in and keeping to routine as much as possible is really important. Be sure to bring something from home that has their smell on it, and stick to the same feeding times as much as possible.

Be Aware of Other People
Of course dog friendly hotels aren't filled with all dogs and crazy fur parents, there are the guests that are there for other reasons too.
We know that Severus can be rather excitable, meaning he can be a little whiny at times, of course not everyone understands this nor do they appreciate it. Having chews at hand, and a dog walk before we settle in for dinner is always a great idea.
