Coughlin was planning a vacation and didn't know what to do with his collie.
He wrote the resort hotel and asked if dogs were allowed. He received this answer
from the manager:
Dear Sir:
I have been in the hotel business for over thirty years. Never yet have I had
to call in the police to eject a disorderly dog in the small hours of the morning.
No dog has ever attempted to pass off a bad check on me. Never has a dog set the
bedclothes afire through smoking. I have never found a hotel towel in a dog's
suitcase. Certainly your dog is welcome.
P.S.: If he will vouch for you, you can come too.
