Canine Luxury at Hyatt Regency Sonoma in Santa Rosa: Comfy Beds and Bar Stardom

My little brother, Arran turned 3 human years last week.  Mummy made him her special doggie birthday cake containing orange vegetables, bee juice and butter made from nuts, topped with cheese from small human kennels.  We invited our friend, Porter from the other side of our street to join us to eat it and being a fish retriever like us, he happily obliged.

That was just the first part of the Birthday treat.  A few days later, we climbed into the motorized dog carrier with the humans and went on an adventure.  For a Covid Puppy, Arran’s a little more travelled than most and has a special place in his heart for the Hyatt in Santa Rosa.  It was where he first experienced a travelling human kennel when we stayed there as the human biting epidemic died down and they were allowed out in public without muzzles.  You can just imagine the excited yelps he made when we pulled up outside.

This travelling human kennel has always been one of my favorites too.  As soon as we walked in the door, the memories flooded back, but let's talk about the highlight of our stay – the beds!  Oh, those heavenly, cloud-like beds that welcome us with open paws as we sank into the fluffy pillows.  It was like being wrapped in a warm hug from our humans.

The excitement increased as Arran and I became the star attractions in the buzzing bar when we stopped by after dinner for our humans to have their end of evening glass of falling over juice.  The other humans found our puppy charms irresistible as they showered us with ear scratches and butt rubs, and of course, Arran’s excited bounces every time a new one approaches always make them smile.

Now, you may not know this, but to be able to perform our security duties properly, we need at least 20 hours of sleep each day, so after all that excitement we needed a long nap.  Humans don’t need so much rest, so to achieve our goal, we needed to find something to keep them occupied.  Let me tell you a secret: the moving picture frame on the wall.  I find it fascinating how they can watch it quietly for hours.
