Paris: Pampering Your Dog

paris.dog.jpg
New York Times:

Games in the garden, behavioral psychologists, personal trainers, massage therapists, beauticians, healthy haute cuisine, even custom-made beds covered in violet fake fur -- just part of the pampering of clients at the Trianon Palace hotel on the edge of Louis XIV's Versailles.

Nothing very exceptional here, except that these clients are not people. They're dogs.

As part of a campaign to lure customers -- particularly rich Americans who will travel only with their best friends -- the newly renovated, four-star hotel is now offering a $400-a-night Heavenly Pets package.

For that price, the dog and his or her owner receive a "deluxe" double room including breakfast. (Cats are allowed but have to rough it -- there is no program for them, although on request the chef will prepare a special cat-friendly meal.)

Gives new meaning to the phrase, "It's a dog's life."
