HOTELS

We are counting on you to be on your best behavior in order to maintain the working relationship with our motels. Our hard-earned reputation, as well as our ability to continue hosting trials is certainly on the line and dependent on YOUR cooperation. We follow up on any complaints from motel owners or guests, so please report any issues to us.

Double-check on rates & charges.

Call to confirm your reservation a few days before arriving.

Be sure your dog is free of fleas BEFORE arriving.

Please be honest about how many people & dogs will be staying in the room.

Please cover the motel's bedding with a sheet or blanket from home, whether or not you think your dog will get on the bed.

Don't EVER leave dogs unattended. Take them with you when you go out for dinner. Even the best of dogs can get carried away in a motel room without you present.
