That's right, it's time for Cute Hotel Doggie of the Day! Today's little surfer dude may not seem seasonally appropriate but we can all benefit from a little cubicle dreaming on a Friday. Besides, this Frenchie is just too damn cute not to share. We found him on the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LoewsHotels">Facebook page</a> for Loews Hotels, snapped hangin' four paws in this year's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Loews+Coronado+Bay+Resort+&+Spa/ian/126953">Loews Coronado Bay Resort</a> annual Surf Dog competition. When we first heard about dogs surfing we thought it was just a fad for rich hippies or a marketing gimmick,

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/quailparkdogs.jpg" class="top"> In the world of dog-friendly hotels, there are the ones that let you bring your own pup, ones that want to pamper your pup with toys and fancy room service, and there are ones that have their own furry friends on hand at the concierge desk. We love all of these incarnations, but heres yet another spin on getting your doggie fix on the road. At Utahs <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Quail+Park+Lodge/local/1513">Quail Park Lodge</a>, dog-loving guests can volunteer at the nearby Best Friends Animal Society, and, once theyve fallen in love with one of the adoptable dogs there, they can bring them back to the hotel for a sleepover date.

Houston: Cute Hotel Doggie Friday: Howl-o-ween Edition

MsRebecca — 2009-10-30T15:21:29-05:00

Friday is now officially Cute Hotel Doggie Day here at HotelChatter, and in honor of Halloween, we felt it was our duty to bring you Dogs At Hotels in Halloween Costumes. It looks like quite a few properties have had Halloween parties for their four-legged guests this week, including Houston’s Hotel Derek.

Dog Days Out are a regular affair at the pet-friendly Hotel Derek, but this Wednesday was a special Howl-o-ween Spooktacular. As you can see from these photos, it wasn’t just the dogs who dressed up: owners were welcome to come in costume, too. (Which seems fair, considering how silly and perturbed some dogs look when they’re in costume.)

She started her job at Hotel Palomar Dallas last night, at the property’s Howl-O-Ween Spooktacular party benefiting no-kill animal shelter Operation Kindness.
