Wellness presents our
Top Ten Getaway Ideas
Summer’s here and, like millions
of others, you’ve got the travel
bug. So what happens to Fifi and Fluffy
when you start digging out the luggage?
Up until recently, every vacation you
booked meant a visit to the kennel for
your animal buddies. But all that’s
changing, thanks to consumer demand and
a marketing-savvy travel industry.
Almost 30 million Americans now travel
with their animals, according to a recent
Travel Industry Association study, and
businesses are scrambling to cater to
your needs. So if you’ve got a few
days, why not choose an animal-friendly
getaway? To get you going, we’ve
narrowed down the selection to our Top
Ten Getaway Ideas. There’s something
for everyone, no matter what your budget
or your timeframe. So drop the guilt and
go ahead and pack your suitcase. Just
remember to save a little space for treats
and toys!

PAMPER
YOURSELVES!
Go ahead. Indulge your need to relax and
de-stress by hitting the spa. While you’re
enjoying a facial and pedicure, your canine
can be soaking up the same attention.
Spas that specialize in taking care of
you and your canine satisfy your needs
and let you pamper your pooch too.
Wyndham Peaks Resort in Telluride, Colorado
offers doggie spa services including grooming,
guided playtime, and specialized dining
(choose from a la carte or doggie spa
packages). After your special day, you
can hit the beautiful mountain trails
together for some exercise (if your dog's
a little older, remember to bring a joint
formula such as DGP from American Bio
Sciences) or simply relax and soak up
the beautiful view. What a great way to
spend a holiday! www.wyndham.com
