Lowes Philadelphia

Okay, the general rule on this site is no chains...blah...blah...blah. Rules were meant to be broken, especially when it involves the Lowes Philadelphia , which kindly hosted and sponsored the Good Dog Gala for the PSPCA last night. Not only is Lowes Philadelphia right across from the Convention Center and Reading Terminal Market, located in a historic modern skyscraper and steps away from Old City - it is one of the most pet friendly hotels anywhere. Not only do they happily allow dogs and kitties to stay in their rooms, they hosted a formal gala in their ballroom to which the attendees dogs were invited. Burmese mountain dogs, newfoundlands, italian greyhouds and PSCPA specials (or mutts as they are sometimes called) mixed and mingled with their glamorous humans. The guest of honor was Etara, a boxer-pit mix who was cruelly set on fire last year. She's doing great now and lives happily with her new family.

If you check into Lowes with your pet, expect to be given the proper treatment, including bowls and biscuits.

Shout out to Loews! The building was a former bank and they've retained some of the original paneling and decor upstairs in the board room. Beautiful.
