Pet owners always have the quandary of making alternate arrangements for their bundles of joy while they are out having the time of their lives. Your sister is very charming about having your dog over, and the dog likes her as well, but you know your family will miss it when you are away, and more importantly, you know it will start pining after you after a few days―hours, in most cases. Many popular tourist destinations forbid pets, but there are also many that allow you to bring along your canine companion on the tour. Here's some more info about some of the best dog-friendly vacation spots all over the world. What makes these cities dog-friendly is that they have a variety of accommodation options and recreational activities for both yourself and your dog, as well as tourist attractions that allow dogs on their grounds.
