guest post by Amy at GoPetFriendly
Life is good! It’s easy to get excited about traveling around the US and Canada with our dogs. And, we love that many of you travel vicariously with us, through our blog and photos. Our biggest challenge? Simply trying to cover it all!
Over the past year, our blog, Take Paws, has begun to resemble an encyclopedia of pet friendly destinations. Our posts, combined with a number of great guest posts, now give you the inside scoop and tips for nearly pet friendly 60 locations! We’d like to see that continue to grow – and we’d like your help.
We’re asking you to enlist your pet and play “tourist for the day” - even if it’s in your own backyard. Do a bit of research, have a bunch of fun, and give our readers a guide to the pet-friendly best of the best.
Make it long, like our post on Yellowstone National Park – or make it short and sweet, like our post on Savannah, Georgia – it’s your choice. We just hope you’ll do it!
We don’t want you chasing your tail, so we’ve put together the following guidelines and suggestions for your submission.
The Ins and Outs
Topics -- Take Paws readers rely on quality, practical advice and how-to's. Posts that highlight a number of pet friendly activities (e.g. “24-hours in This City”) or those that take a detailed look at one location are especially popular.
Format -- Feel free to submit your content in Word or plain text format. It’d be great if you could also follow these points in preparing your post for us.
- For all links, include the URL in brackets within the prose, immediately after the text you’d like to use as the link text.
- Indicate within the prose where you’d like the images to be placed, and provide any captions you want included.
- Bold your subheadings so they are easy to spot.
Links to your own blog -- You’re welcome to link back to your own site within the post if it’s relevant to the topic you’re writing about.
Links that are off-topic or too numerous may be removed, or we may reject the post altogether. We’re happy to promote you, as long as it’s done subtly. Your best bet is to pique the interest of our readers by writing a high-quality, helpful post.
Images -- In travel, it’s all about the pictures. And pictures that include pets are the best! We ask that each post has at least two images and please note:
- Images can be of any size, but the maximum width of photos on the blog is 500 pixels.
- It’s up to you to ensure the images you submit have proper attribution and do not infringe on a copyright.
- Submit images as separate files in your email, or send us a link to the location where we can download the image. Please don’t submit images by pasting them into your post document.
Editing -- We edit all the posts that appear on Take Paws. We rarely edit them heavily, but we will change titles, rework openings or conclusions, add links, or correct grammar and spelling. We hope you won’t be offended—we’re just trying to make every post we publish as successful as possible.
Our goal is to get a post that hits the mark with our readers—which is also good for you.
Byline -- You’ve worked to give us great content, and we’re happy to help you promote you. Provide us with a byline, which should be a sentence or two explaining who you are and what you do. Feel free to include up to two links in it. Your byline will appear at the bottom of your post. We’ll also write a short introduction that will include your main link, which will appear at the top of the post.
Exclusivity -- We ask that the posts you submit to us are written exclusively for use by GoPetFriendly. While you’re more than welcome to write on the same topic, our hope is that posts that appears on Take Paws don’t appear in the same form, elsewhere. We may decline to use your post because of its quality, the relevance of the topic, or because we’ve recently posted on the same subject. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us, and we’ll do our best to answer them.
Thank you! We can’t wait to your stories about the places you’ve visited with your pets!






It would also make it a lot harder for bullying to take place, since anyone stupid enough to try it would be taking on a potentially even bigger community, as well as whoever happened to be hosting you. (Anyone who did host would have your back 100% and be able to manage comment moderation and such so you'd never even have to see the garbage.), FRAN DRESCHER HOT TOPLESS, 474, WINONA RYDER SEX NUDE PICS, nga, SHANNON TWEED PORN NAKED PICS, alb, LISA EDELSTEIN NUDE NAKED PICS, 39301, ANNE ARCHER NUDE SEX SCENE, uuifuz, LEA THOMPSON NAKED NAKED PHOTOS, oxtca, BRENDA SONG NAKED PUSSY, 67158, EMILY OSMENT BIKINI HOT PICS, %-((, SILVIA COLLOCA NUDE SEX TAPE, twvwrf, BRIE LARSON NUDE FAKES, 7875,
