Aruba Launches ‘Have Dog, Will Travel’ Promotion for Limited Time Only

In celebration of National Dog Week kicking off on September 19, the Dutch Caribbean Island of Aruba has just launched its new 'Have Dog, Will Travel' promotional campaign.

'Have Dog, Will Travel' invites visitors to bring their canine companions along on their tropical vacations to experience 'The Aruba Effect' for themselves or, alternatively, for pups to enjoy their own staycations at home while their parents are away.
