Hola amigos! I’m Benito and I’m here to share with you all of my wonderful travels through Mexico!
To start, a little about myself. I’m a Pembroke Welsh Corgi; 30cm short sitting on 4 stubby legs, and a slick hair style that drives the señoritas loca. I was born on March 27, 2013 and ever since a baby I’ve been a traveler! I was born in Missouri, USA and got my first visa stamp at the young age of 8 weeks. First country? Viva la Mexico! Just my luck, at border crossing I got the red light at the Cuernavaca Airport and migra had me in holding for awhile. Gringo problems. Anyways, I finally cleared customs and was on my way to the big city – Mexico City! There, I met my forever family in Santa Fe; they had been waiting for me and I was so happy to be with them. I have duel AKC citizenship: my Mom is American from Michigan and my Dad is Mexican from Puebla.
They live in Mexico permanently and since they work in tourism, they travel throughout Mexico all the time. They hate to leave me so I usually come with them, and it’s so much fun! Join me as I travel as much as possible and see life from my point of view down here on the ground! I will share with you some of Mexico’s most pet friendly hotels and destinations.
Oh yeah, and in case you’re wondering who the cute, smelly little corgi is in all my photos? That’s my new brother. His name is Ramón. He was born February 4, 2017 and is from the same state as my Momma – Michigan. So, we’re both Midwest boys living and traveling in Mexico!
Hola amigos! Soy Benito y estoy aqui para compartir con ustedes mis viajes por Mexico!
Para empezar, un poco acerca de mi. Soy un Pembroke Corgi de Gales; chaparrito de 30cm sobre 4 patitas regordetas y un peinado suave que vuelve crazy a las señoritas. Desde chiquito, he sido un viajero. Nací en Missouri, EU y recibí mi primero sello extranjero cuando solo tenía 8 semanas! Mi primer destino fue Mexico, baby! Como mala suerte, en la frontera my tocó la luz roja en el Aeropuerto de Cuernavaca y la migra me tuvo detenido! Problemas gringos. De todos modos, por fin pasé la aduana y ya estaba en camino a la ciudad – el Distrito Federal! Ahí, conocí a mi familia en Santa Fe; me estaban esperando y fui tan feliz al estar con ellos. Si quieres saber, tengo doble ciudadanía AKC: mi mama es Americana de Michigan y mi papa es Mexicano de Puebla.
Mis papas viven en Mexico y como tabajan en turismo, viajan por Mexico todo el tiempo. Odian dejarme solito entonces normalmente los acampaño a sus viajes y es super divertido! Sigueme mientras viajo con ellos y ve la vida desde mi punto de vista (desde aqui abajo)! Compartiré contigo los hoteles pet friendly de México y los mejores destinos para viajar con tu perro!
Meet Benito… A furry Corgi born in Missouri but lives in Mexico…His Mom is American and his Dad is Mexican; they work in tourism which allows them to take Benito on their trips…He’s a lucky Totem that travels all over Mexico. Besides being adventurous, he is also a heartbreaker! So much that what his human fans surround him, he let’s them take photos with him infront of the sea, but hiding his face with his sunglasses! In pet-friendly hotels, they greet him like a celebrity and he is always willing to pose for the paparazzi! His Mom loves Mexico and Benito so much that she loves to combine her travel blog with her Totem.. they even have a section called #MexicoWithBenito where they share all the traditions of beautiful Mexico with their fans. Being a corgi is one thing, but being a celebrity Totem is no easy task!”
