Pets Welcome Here’s Bone-Vivant and Dog-About-Town, Bernie Whiner, Dishes About the TV Show’s Exciting Locations and Fun-tastic Adventures.
It’s Bernie, and I’m wiggling with excitement over the new adventures of my furry friends and human pal, David, on Pets Welcome Here. This year we have 3 paw-some shows and 6 amazing destinations. In Aspen David met so many canines who love winter adventures, including cross country skiing, skijoring, and of course, romping through the snow,
And, David was thrilled to meet the hero Avalanche Dogs that rescue skiers buried in the snow. The Avi Dogs showed off their skills and did a few tricks for the camera. Then it was on to Austin where David met fantastic furry friends who are part of Devine Canines, a group of over 120 pet parents and their furry kids who are trained to provide comfort and support to people in need. These four-footed heroes are just like your dog when not helping others and fetch balls, swim in lakes and do SUP with their people. In San Diego David explored Dog Beach, the first off leash beach in America and checked in to a magical resort where he met Chungus, a very special bulldog and his person Chef Kyle. Chungus showed David around the super pet friendly resort, offering pet massage on their private beach and a canine menu prepared by Chef Kyle.
In Savannah David discovered Oliver Bentley’s Historic Dog Walking Tour, a daily event where tourists and locals walk the historic streets of Savannah with their history loving hounds and \sniff out historic landmarks, scenic parks and pet friendly establishments. From historic River Street to a retro hotel where “the hip pets stay”, and haunted buildings where your pet may see a ghost or two, Savannah is a doggie delight.
Talk about history! You can’t beat Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown.
These three destinations in Virginia’s Historic Triangle each tell a unique story about Colonial America. It was here that David met Ilsa, a courageous 3-legged terrier who lead him on adventures of epic proportions. From the original site of the Jamestown Settlement to the quaint, charm of Yorktown where holes from cannon balls can still be seen in the outer walls of homes, to Colonial Williamsburg, dogs are welcome to walk about with their people, see the sights and meet with historic re-enactors who will tell you their stories. Contemporary Williamsburg also gets 4 paws up as pets are welcome in many shops and restaurants and at a very pet friendly resort with a private pet friendly beach where dogs can go kayaking, and sniff their way through miles of hiking trails.
In Atlanta David met the biggest furry guide of all, Fernando, a Great Pyrenees who led David to an amazing hotel that welcomes pets of any size. Fernando and David experienced the tranquil area around the pool, the lobby, rooftop cabanas and bar, happy hour, and of course, guestrooms with welcome pet amenities and a Fernando size bed. Then it was off to action adventures as David met Kylie, a Blue Heeler, who loves Atlanta because it’s a city surrounded by a forest. A short drive from downtown, the Chattahoochee National Forest is he perfect place for Kylie to take David on a hiking and kayaking adventure. Not to be missed is the Martin Luther King Memorial National Park where Kylie and David walked along historic paths and stopped and smelled the roses in the magnificent rose garden. You may not have known the MLK Memorial Park is dog friendly, but it’s a one-of-a-kind experience for you and your pet in the Big Peach.
