(page 7 of 7) Best Doggone Digs:wag hotels The circular driveway in front of the Wag Hotels' entrance&emdash;reminiscent of a luxury hotel&emdash;sets the stage. Upon arrival at Wag Hotels in West Sacramento, you soon realize Fido and Miss Kitty ain't going to no boring old kennel. Oh, no. There's not a bad room at this inn. The cat wing comes complete with a huge aquarium in the center for feline entertainment; two-story cat condos have a separate area for food and litter box. No one will have a bone to pick with the dogs' accommodations, either. Upgrade your dog to a suite and he gets a window, raised bed, doggy-inspired artwork on colorfully painted walls and a television. Mom and Dad can watch their beloved bowwow via a wagcam. Play-group sessions for dogs and kitty cuddle time happen daily. What more could you ask for? A spa? Wag offers it. Choose from facials, massages and aromatherapy, paw pad rubs and more. We have only one question: Can humans check in, too? Prices range from $17 to $65 per day for boarding. Spa, day care and other services are extra.

Suffering from second- and third-degree burns, he was forced to close the doors to his eatery, which serves Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine (his vegetarian spring rolls are sublime) along with burgers, smoothies and American-style breakfasts, for two months. With massive bills and a lien against his house, Luong reopened the restaurant in late February, before he had fully recovered. Luong needs the money, so he works hard, often putting in 16-hour days, seven days a week. (2026 16th St., Sacramento; 916-448-0088) advertisement
