DogFriendly.com released its 2007 List of the “Top 10 Dog-Friendly Resort Areas to Visit in the United States,” with Portland, ME at the top of the list.
“This dog-friendly town has it all. Walking tours, cruises, beaches, parks and islands to visit. A number of off-leash dog parks,” says the site.
It determines rankings by the number and quality of dog-friendly accommodations, interesting things to do with dogs, beaches, parks, nearby attractions and outdoor restaurants that allow dogs.
The other areas include Carmel/ Monterey, CA; Ashville/Blue Ridge, NC; Key West, FL; Charlottesville, VA; Black Hills, SD; Lake Tahoe, CA/NV; Cape May, NJ; Grand Canyon, AZ; and Hocking Hills, OH, which has both “dog-friendly accommodations and dog-friendly parks.”
