On the one hand, pet people and, in the interest of full disclosure, I am one think people who don't

Q: We just returned from a long trip by car. We like the La Quinta chain. Many of their hotels are "pet friendly," and we noticed many more pet-friendly hotels on our trip. I don't want to spend the night in a room that has been inhabited by someone else's dog. What are the assumptions? Are some rooms set aside for pets, while other rooms exclude pets? How should someone handle this issue when making a reservation? What about people with severe allergies?
Here's what Teresa Ferguson, the director of communications and public relations for La Quinta, said in an email to me: "While each location may handle southern caribbean cruises room assignments for pet owners differently, please be assured all La Quinta hotels have a system in place that notifies the housekeeping staff of a pet-occupied room. With this information, the room attendant is able to pay special attention when cleaning southern caribbean cruises the room to ensure it is ready for the next guest."
Of the several hotel groups I contacted, many used some variation on the idea of "special attention" to rooms, sometimes calling what is done "deep cleaning" or "sanitizing," which can include shampooing of carpets and other efforts to get rid of allergens. Many charge an extra fee for such work.
That reaction may not be as serious as, say, a peanut or shellfish reaction, but in people with severe allergies, the lingering presence could trigger an asthma attack, said Dr. James Sublett, an allergist at the University of Louisville School of Medicine southern caribbean cruises and a spokesman for the American College of Allergy, Asthma Immunology.
Dr. Mark Dykewicz, director of Allergy Immunology at Wake Forest Medical School, concurs. "It is certainly possible that the presence of a pet in a hotel room from a previous guest's stay could leave sufficient allergens behind to cause allergy southern caribbean cruises problems in an allergic individual," he said.
In other words, Fido or Fluffy is the gift that keeps on giving and, for the allergic individual, the most prudent course of action may be simply to avoid those hotels that allow pets. (If that's not possible, both doctors urge medications to minimize the reaction. Allergy southern caribbean cruises shots, Sublett noted, also can help.)
On the one hand, pet people and, in the interest of full disclosure, I am one think people who don't want to be around dogs or cats are strange, and the rejection of their four-legged companions I can't stop myself gets their dander up. On the other hand, pet allergies southern caribbean cruises again, I can't stop myself are nothing to sneeze southern caribbean cruises at.
