What a nice site.  I checked a couple of places where we have stayed 
with our two hound ladies and they list them.  They also apparently 
indicate when there is a pet surcharge.  I notice several don't take 
dogs over 50lb.

I used to be able to count on Best Western to be dog friendly, but 
they have discovered the surcharge.  Now I stay in LaQuinta whose 
corporate policy is to be dog friendly.  I've only stayed in one LaQ 
that wasn't very nice.  I always ask to be on the ground floor near an exit.
