Travel Las Vegas, Nevada: All in with Fido
Go all in and add Las Vegas to the list of places promoted as ‘pet-friendly.’ (Well, for dogs anyway). According to TravelWeekly, an eNewsletter for travel industry members, more properties in Sin City are allowing dogs because so many people are travelling with canines in tow.
Two Dogs, One Dog-friendly Quest to Albion Falls, Hamilton, Ontario
As cars whiz by we’re walking for almost 10 minutes along a busy road. We’re separated from traffic by a metal guardrail extending along side a worn dirt path. Victor, my 10-year-old schnoodle, is in front pulling on the leash like he’s in charge of Santa’s sleigh. Sasha and her fur daddy are behind us. […]
Travel Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: Meet the Canine Ambassador at the Fairmont
Canine ambassadors are part of many Fairmont Hotel locations throughout North America where the lobbies are calm enough to accommodate a tail-wagging guest greeter. What a fabulous idea, especially because most North American Fairmont properties are pet-friendly.
Top 7 Dogtrotting Spots of 2015
Whoahoo! Dogtrotting.net – the magazine-style blog for globetrotting dog lovers – is one year old! On January 5, 2015, I started writing about dog festivals, fun, and adventures, while carting my schnoodle Victor around with me, camera in one hand and leash (sometimes) in another.

How to Combine Holiday Shopping and Pet Rescue? Shop at Fundraisers.

The idea came to me after a long table of raffle and silent auction items greeted me through the door at a Hamilton Greyhound rescue event recently. Silent auction is a particular vice of mine, combining two of my obsessions: shopping and […]
Travel Toronto, Ontario: Dog Does the Distillery District (& Christmas Market)
“Do you want a photo?” one of the costumed carolers at the Toronto Christmas Market in the Distillery District said when I stuck a snap of them. They even posed with my dog Victor because (of course) I traveled here with him – the same day we checkout Winter Woofstock, so we’re making the rounds. The […]
Travel Toronto, Ontario: Winter Woofstock Lets the Dogs In!
If you don’t understand why people dress their dogs in coats, sweaters, bows and fairy wings, then maybe Winter Woofstock isn’t for you. (Ok, I could go either way on the fairy wings too). But not the jacket, sweater and bows… Welcome to Winter Woofstock! (If it seems to come on the heels of Summer Woofstock, […]
