[nagdu] Bed and Breakfast

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Hey Anne,
I wonder where a Bed And Breakfast place would be treated under the ADA? 
Anyone know this?

Anne, I would do the same thing if i stayed in a B&B and was bringing my 
guide dog.  I never stayed at one but many times they are owned and run by 
people who also live there.  So, yeah, I personally would talk to the owner 
before going there to make sure all is well.  To me doing this could be the 
difference in having a pleasant time or a tense one which nobody needs.

Did you get to see the Lab's puppies while at that B&B?  I bet they were 
sooooo cute!
