Cormac MacConnell: Pet friendly break for pampered pooches

We had a few days off last week and were inclined to take a break in the Deep South. 

The problem in the way was that our dog sitter was away in Galway enjoying himself, and that was a major fly in the ointment, because we could not leave our little terrier, Pepper, and the gentle retriever, Anika, unattended for three days and nights.

I was resigned to the situation, but my good wife went away to make a few phone calls.
