Ah, that headline was inevitable, given the story, which I’m taking straight from the press release. It’s worth it:
In honor of National Dog Day on Thursday, Aug. 26, Whiskey Pete’s Hotel & Casino invites guests to bring their pets on vacation where furry friends can stay and play for free in an affordable, comfortable environment Aug. 26 – 29. Pet owners will also receive a doggy discount with rooms all weekend long starting at $45 for the holiday.
Whiskey Pete’s Pet Policy:
* Domestic dogs 50 pounds or less are welcome
* An additional $50 refundable deposit is required
* Dogs must have proof of inoculation upon check-inAdditional rules and restrictions apply for pets. Guests may book Primm’s pet promotion using offer code TPNDD. To book hotel reservations, call 1.800.FUNSTOP (1.800.386.7867) or visit book online. All offers are subject to availability, and may be changed or canceled at any time.
Good stuff for dog lovers who’ve been wanting to spend some time in Primm. Mastiff and Great Dane owners are out of luck, though.
One note: I’d really suggest that the Primm casinos change their phone number, or at least the way they spell it out, since 1.800.FUNSTOP makes me think of “When the fun stops,” from the problem gambling brochures. Without changing numbers, they could use 1.800.FUNPUMP (stop to gas up…stay for the slots) or 1.800.FUNRUNS (OK, that one is not going to help F&B revenue. Maybe FUNSTOP isn’t that bad.
