Why Book a Last Minute Pet-Friendly Getaway?

Whether you want to enjoy a bit of adventure or simply want to do something spontaneous and need a change of scene, booking a last minute deal and escaping with your pooch can be a great idea. You may want to escape to enjoy invigorating walks with your pet pooch along a dog-friendly beach and stay by the sea, or want to sniff out good trails through scenic countryside and rent a rural retreat.

There are lots of good reasons to escape with your pooch on an eleventh hour break.
