Next To Impossible To Use, September 7, 2004
This review is from: Doin' California with Your Pooch: Eileen's Directory of Dog-Friendly Lodging and Outdoor Adventure in California! Fourth Edition (Paperback)
The manner in which Barish chose to organize her book makes it nearly impossible to use. It is arranged alphabetically by city, regardless of county. When searching for dog-friendly locations within a particular area, it is necessary to know the names of all the surrounding cities. Unless you have a map in front of you while using Barish's book, it is frustrating and virtually useless. In addition, the information in the book is scanty and many times inaccurate. I cannot recommend this book. In fact, I cannot in all good conscience even re-sell the book to an unsuspecting dog lover.

Love It!, March 30, 2005
This review is from: Doin' California with Your Pooch: Eileen's Directory of Dog-Friendly Lodging and Outdoor Adventure in California! Fourth Edition (Paperback)
This is the best book I have found on California. It comprehensively tells you where to go and what to do. My dogs and I have a great time wandering around this fabulous state with the book as a guide by my side. Every dog owner should have this.

HORRIBLY Organized, November 21, 2005
This review is from: Doin' California with Your Pooch: Eileen's Directory of Dog-Friendly Lodging and Outdoor Adventure in California! Fourth Edition (Paperback)
If you want to find dog friendly places in particular areas of california (aka, costal, bay, etc) - this book is impossible. I would recommend just getting a california hiking or camping book that has dog info. This book has alot of cutesy pictures and recommendations that I did not find helpful.

Can't leave home without it!, April 18, 2006
This review is from: Doin' California with Your Pooch: Eileen's Directory of Dog-Friendly Lodging and Outdoor Adventure in California! Fourth Edition (Paperback)
This is a wonderfully helpful book. It sits in the back of my car at ready for any trip. I only travel with my dog. When I plan a trip this book comes out to help us find places to play.
Highly recommend it.

Fabulous, March 30, 2005
This review is from: Doin' California with Your Pooch: Eileen's Directory of Dog-Friendly Lodging and Outdoor Adventure in California! Fourth Edition (Paperback)
I find this book indispensable! I travel through the state for business and pleasure throughout the year and wouldn't think of leaving without this book. Everyone who owns a dog in California should buy this book.
