There are now many establishments that cater for guests and their four legged friends. The guest houses will have an outside area where the dogs can go and there may also be a special area for feeding. Some of the establishments will also have a pet sitting service if you need to go out for the day and there will be contact numbers for local vets and pet stores at reception.

Before taking your dog on any trips you should check a few things. It is essential that your pet is up to date with vaccinations and you should consult a vet to make sure the animal is fit enough to travel. You will also need to ensure that you have an adequate supply of dog food unless you are going to purchase it when you arrive at the guest house.
