According to **************** Disney is extending the program another year.

The positive response must be outweighing the negative! (or money is being made)

I'm not surprised. Calling it a test was just a way to permenantly introduce it, with the least amount of backlash possible. At one time, FP+ was just a test.

Well, I guess it’s good I hadn’t booked my January trip yet. I was hoping to go back to some of my old favorites next year since the dogs were gone. I am not happy.

I'm not happy about it either. My trip in December is at a dog resort (YC,) but at least this time, I knew when I booked the reservation that dogs were a possibility.
My reservation last year, I had already booked a trip at what was, at the time, a pet free resort. Disney turned it into a pet allowed resort just a couple months before my stay. Due to the popular time (Marathon weekend) and the size of my party (2 adults, 4 kids) it was very difficult to switch to a non pet resort.

I was told last week it was extended.

If Disney had a reputation of consistently enforcing rules I don't think many people would have issues with the dog policy. But they don't. They allow guests to bring their dogs anywhere, poop anywhere, sit in food courts, etc. I never care that there are dogs at the Loews hotels at Universal, because I almost never see them. And never ever see them where they aren't supposed to be.

As I said in another thread, **************** is just another fan site. It is not an official Disney site. There is still no official word from Disney either on their website or blog. Those are the only 2 sites I would really believe. Another poster spoke with a rep from George K, the head of WDW & was told that no decision has been made yet. Just because another fan site posted it, doesn’t mean it’s true. They did not name their source. Could have been some random phone CM who doesn’t know any more than we do.

I'm the one that heard from George K, office this past Sunday. I was told no decision has been made yet . I would keep an eye out on this site for official info https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/

I still say "No cats" is discrimination.

 

[marcyleecorgan]

Hmmmmm this does not bode well for my family's vacation planning.

Sounds like the dog policy is here to stay: https://wdwnt.com/2018/07/breaking-...dly-hotels-are-becoming-a-permanent-offering/

While I understand that many are unhappy, at least it is not becoming a policy across all of the disney hotels and other dog-free options remain available.

Still waiting for official word from Disney. I hope they clarify this soon.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. No dog has ever irritated me, but some people (and their urchins) have.

Another vote for cats! I can just as easily carry around one of my babies in the lovely carrier bag/purse like we saw at EPCOT last week with a little dog in while the owner was walking around Italy stores.
