In November, Montgomery County welcomed back the Kennel Club of Philadelphia’s National Dog Show to the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center at Oaks. Simultaneously, the Valley Forge Tourism and Convention Board (VFTCB) announced a new campaign: Embark Montco, to bring awareness to the county’s 30+ pet friendly hotels, restaurants, spas, parks, and more.

Earlier this month, we invited Philly’s favorite Bernese mountain dog, @Cavanaugh.The.Berner, to #EmbarkMontco on a weekend getaway in the ‘burbs with his ‘pawrents.’

Along the way, Cavanaugh showcased Montgomery County as the region’s leading pet friendly destination. The pup documented his journey on our @VisitValleyForge Instagram account and to his 23,000+ followers as well:

The Instagram-famous Bernese began his weekend by checking into Homewood Suites by Hilton Philadelphia Plymouth Meeting, one of 30 hotels in Montgomery County that welcomes animals! With almost half of the hotels in Montco encouraging pet-friendly travel, it gives visitors the opportunity to bring their furry companions along when staying overnight.
