Is your pet a jet setter?

Wednesday, May 06, 2009



by Kristi Gutierrez

You take your pooch to get massaged and groomed.  Whether you consider them your best friend or part of the family, you want nothing but the best for them.  There are great options for hotels that cater to pets, but you hate to send them to the cargo hold of a plane for the journey there.  Don't restrict your destinations for family vacations.  At last, an airlines that knows your furry friend is more than just baggage. The founders saw the need for a safe alternative for pets to travel.  Pet Airways is a pet-only airlines that is dedicated to a friendly first class experience for your pet.

Traveling with your pet can be a logistical nightmare.  With 5 inaugural cities, you can meet your pet on either coast or at any of the stops along the way.  Pets fly in the main cabin and the pet attendant assures the pawsengers comfort. You can track your pet's journey so you'll know where your baby is at all times.  You drop off your pet two hours prior to the flight departure in the pet lounge.  They get a potty break prior to take off and then board the plane.  You can then pick up your pet at the pet lounge in the destination city.  If your arrival is later, your pet can stay overnight at the PAWS lodge and you can pick them up the next day.

Flights are being offered at an introductory rate of $149 each way.  A small price to pay so you don't end up in the dog house when you come back from a vacation minus your pet.  Do more than pamper your pet, take them jet setting with you.

And don't forget how dehydrating any air travel can get, so pack an Evian spray for yourself and a bottle of Best Friend NYC Multivatimin Balancing Tonic to rehydrate your pet's coat and skin during or after the flight.

City Spotlight: Valentine's Weekend in Portland

Wednesday, February 11, 2009



by John Chandler

Even before Men’s Health magazine announced in 2007 that Portland is “park heaven with the most dogs per resident,” and before Forbes the same year ranked us No. 2 among pet-friendly cities in America, we knew Portlanders were crazy for their four-legged friends. Evidence of our affection is everywhere: consider William Wegman’s dog-bowl art installation in the North Park Blocks or the Oregon Humane Society’s “Pet Cam,” which lets cat-deprived cubicle jockeys peek in on the antics of frolicking felines. In fact, according to our recent online pet survey, Portlanders simply don’t skimp when it comes to lavishing attention on their companions.

Take a look at some of these luxury canine activities Portland has got to offer  including pet-friendly boutique hotel suites, hydrotherapy treatments, deep tissue massages for your pooch, canine four-Star meals, and more.

Extravagant? Perhaps. But the unconditional love of a cat or dog? Priceless. Read more...

Best Friend NYC attends Pre-Westminster party at Sky Bark

Saturday, February 07, 2009



It was party at the Hotel Penn's Top Ballroom last night in New York City. Transformed for the evening into a pet-friendly Skybark lounge, flashbulbs were popping as extravagantly dressed dogs poured out of the elevators with their humans in tow.

As their purebred compatriots rested in hotel rooms below in anticipation of competing at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on Monday and Tuesday, these dogs strutted across the red carpet, posed for photographers, and cavorted with equally well-dressed canines inside the festive ballroom.

Organized as a benefit to raise money for Animal Haven shelter, the event included a fashion show by local pet fashion designer, Ada Nieves, and a live auction courtesy of FIDO Friendly magazine.
