I have an 11-month old weimaraner/lab mix - and we just found a book
last night called "The Boston Dog Lover's Companion". It lists
parks/beaches/restaurants(outdoor seating)/and lodging where dogs are
allowed and gives a brief description of each, including whether they
must be leashed or can run free. It covers most of the state,
including the Cape. I'd be happy to look up a certain area if anybody
wants info.

2093.3 | I want one too!;) | WMOIS::FLECK_S | Love me, Love my dogs, cats, etc. | Thu Apr 24 1997 15:07 | 4 |

Where can I get my own copy? My parents love taking their dog
with them for Sunday drives and this will help when they want to
take a rest from driving. Sue

| Sue -
I found this book at The Paper Store in Hudson, MA. It's $18.00 - they
had two or three copies left - in the travel section.

The Book Corner(store) I live near will order books for you if
you have the name and author(?) or publisher. I have the title
but not the other info, can you please post it.
Thanks Sue

| Sorry, my copy is out in my car... so I can't post the author or
publisher.
Almost any book store can order any book for you if it's in print.
They may even be able to search for this book based just on the title.
Carol.

2093.10 | I'll post more info tonight | DAGWUD::JACQUART | | Fri Apr 25 1997 16:03 | 13 |
| I know that The Paper Store will order books for you as well, I've done
it before. I'm pretty sure they can do it just by the title, but I'll
check my book when I get home and post more details
(author/publisher...). I know the copyright date is 1996 because I
checked to make sure the information would be current.
I also remember the preface mentioning a similar book for California,
and I think there may have been a number to call to see if there was
one published for other areas. I'll check that and post that info as
well.

| Like .7, I'm also interested to know whether the Boston edition covers
New Hampshire at all? Thanks,
Sue

2093.13 | NH/VT Info | DAGWUD::JACQUART | | Mon Apr 28 1997 17:24 | 21 |

or draw your pet ... Linda Begin, 79 Walnut Hill Rd.,
Derry, NH 03038, 603-421-1935

AAA lodgings that allow dogs.

2093.15 | A Web Site with some good info... | ALFA1::MASON | The law of KARMA hasn't been repealed | Tue Apr 29 1997 15:56 | 6 |
| I found a site on the internet called: http://www.traveldog.com/ that
lists hotels in New England (as well as other states) that allow dogs.
You might want to try looking at that.
