(We've got two moderately large dogs, and looked into it too.)  Even if you can find a place where he's welcome, he'll have to stay in the hotel all day long and won't get to go on any of the rides.  No fun for him, and worry for you.Get the latest Frommer's Guide on Disney World and read it cover to cover...  That's where we got all our best advice.</blockquote>
