take a vacation, adopt a dog

There's a hotel in Asheville NC that has adoptable dogs to greet guests as they check in.  One dog at a time is kept at the hotel until it is adopted.  They are always on a leash, wear an "adopt me" vest,

and can accompany guests anywhere except to their room overnight.  If a guest would like to adopt, an inspection is made of their home to make sure it will be an acceptable home for the new pet.  adopt a dog
