I will travel by car to Tuscany during early July 2010 and I want to visit Florence, Pisa, Venice and Milan for 10-14 days. Looking for sites to visit as museums, great food, events[festivals -wine, food, entertainment, etc], beaches and spas. Have pet [small dog] also, any suggestions -possible inns/ hotels that accept pets?
 
pet-friendly places in Tuscany

Ciao AJ, sounds like you have a wonderful tour of Italy planned!

For beaches, just head to the Tuscan coast as you head up from Rome into Tuscany, you'll have your pick along the way. The most popular among Tuscans themselves are the ones in Maremma up to Livorno.

As for pet-friendly accommodation, you can look at this list of pet-friendly accommodation in Tuscany - when you reserve make sure to tell them you have a small dog along so they know to expect it.

You won't find problems traveling with your small dog but if you want to make sure you head toward a pet-friendly beach or restaurant, you can search on
Turisti a 4 Zampe, a new website by the Italian tourism ministry that has collected contact details to create a nation-wide database of all places that welcome pets!
