The Dog Lover's Companion to Washington - Baltmore - It covers almost all the parks in the Washington D.C., Virginia and Baltimore. Have you ever looked up a park on a map and it looked huge and perfect for your dog, and when you got there, you and your dog were very disappointing with the park? Well, the review for each park is quite accurate. With this book on hand, you can look up a park and find out if it is suitable for your dog before driving there. It covers important information that a dog owner needs to know about the park/area - such as the poop scoop law and the leash law.

It also contains information (ie. hotel, restaurant, pet stores, etc...) that is very useful for dog owners who like to take their pooches on vacation with them. Embedded into the book, you will find dog adoption information. The book encourages suggestions from readers. I've already written to the publisher suggesting to include information on various rescue organizations and local animal shelters - a way to help promote pet rescue/adoption.

One of the things I really enjoy is watching a movie that takes place somewhere I have traveled. It is really neat to watch a movie and be able to say, "I ate in that restaurant," or "I walked down that street." Netflix has more movies than anyone, including over 6,000 documentaries. And, with their very competitive pricing, watching a movie in the comfort of your own home is really inexpensive -- especially when you don't have to pay so much for the popcorn!
