This summer you can bring the whole family on vacation, including the family pet, because now four-legged friends are welcome at The Ritz-Carlton, Charlotte. The June through August pet program allows your furry friends to live the life of luxury, with pet accommodations in guestrooms, including a plush Ritz-Carlton dog bed, Ritz-Carlton water and food bowls, an on-floor dining mat, waste bags, chew toy and a special Bar Cocoa dog biscuit for each resident canine. Bring the dog along for Saturday Sidewalk Socials. While you enjoy Bar Cocoa’s famous pastries, desserts, French macarons, gelato and iced teas, your pup can also enjoy a relaxing day. They will be pampered with leash tie-ups, doggie bags, local dog-walking maps and dog biscuits.
