[nagdu] Disclosing guide dog?

[Daryl Marie]

Hi, all,

Quesiton for you.

I have posted before that my husband and myself, along with Jenny, are going on a trip to Montana in a few weeks.  I doublechecked my reservation confirmation email from the hotel, and right at the bottom, it says no pets.

Now, I realize Jenny is not a pet... we all know this.  I am debating whether or not to disclose the fact that she is my guide dog now, or wait until we arrive at the hotel.  Does anyone have any advice?  I realize I am not obligated to notify the hotel, but I don't want to wind up stranded in Montana and having to pay for alternate accommodations (worst-case scenario, I know).   We have stayed at this hotel before and had a wonderful experience, but this was before I trained with Jenny.

I would love any opinions!

Daryl
