I am sooooo glad this thread is here! Our 10 lb. toy schnauzer will be staying in a Best Friends villa for 10 nights: 11/11 - 11/21. We'll be staying nearby at POFQ so it'll be super convenient to drop in & spend time with her.
What kind of bedding is provided? In all the pics you see the nice cushy beds but I'm not sure if those are provided or brought from home? I bought a cheaper dog bed/donut thing at Ross the other night just to give her something she can snuggle down into a bit. I'm just not sure what to expect with the beds.
I've been a little concerned that my Riley Belle will get cold at night. She sleeps curled up against my legs under a blanket. She's such a little cuddler. I made her a snuggle sack to see if she'd like somthing like that (which she does!). I'm going to whip together a few more before we go so I can refresh them a few times during our visit. Also, I'm going to start putting her clean baby-size blankets in my bed one at a time, sleep with them a day or two, then seal them up in gallon-size ziplocks so they have that familiar smell. I can also rotate them every few days.
Still need to buy a new sack of rawhide chewies. I also need to dig out the box of toys she tore holes in so I can sew 'em up. She'll think they're new again!
Planning for pooch travel is every bit as involved as planning for the kids when they were little guys. I wouldn't trade it for anything, tho.
I'll be sure to come back with a full report...and pics!
