You love to pamper your pooch…so how about a massage when you travel? In Lexington, Kentucky, the Griffin Gate Marriott Resort & Spa is extending its spa options to include in-room dog massages. (They already provide dog and horse treats at the hotel entrance.)

The resort offers Swedish deep tissue massage and acupressure for dogs; a 25-minute, in-room personalized canine massage costs $60 plus service charge. The treatments are specially tailored to older dogs with arthritic conditions and those who travel frequently and might not get all the exercise they need. Each massage ends with a dog specific spa gift.

Treatments are only available to guests staying at the resort and owners must be present during the massage. The resort charges a $100 non-refundable sanitation fee for bringing dogs to the resort.
