4 out of 5 dogs agree – Houston rocks!

060927_dog.jpgHoustonist loves its pets – well, some of us don’t have one, but we love our friends’ pets! Finally, our city is getting recognition for our pet fondness. According to AAA, Houston is now the most pet-friendly city for travelers.

The survey is mainly based on the number of hotels and motels that accept pets. Houston leads the pack with 108 lodging choices for pets and their owners. We also have two off-leash dog parks and 20 emergency veterinarian hospitals that are accredited by AAA (we didn’t know that the travel industry group was involved with accrediting veterinarians until now.)

San Antonio, Austin, and Dallas also made the top ten. The survey is listed in Traveling with your Pet: The AAA PetBook. Grab one, and invite your friend’s dog from New Jersey to come and visit. Oh, your friend can come, too.
