The Oxford Hotel – A Dog’s Best Friend in Bend, Oregon
Posted By Suzanne Carvlin on April 6, 2011
Ever wonder where you and your furry dog buddy can go on vacation and stay in a chic hotel with all of the creature comforts?
Wonder no more! The Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend, Oregon not only has a pet-friendly floor; they also provide a host of amenities that would make any dog feel right at home.

Our dogs would love a stay at The Oxford Hotel. They are a bit larger now (they are a lean, mean 80 lbs. each), but they would no longer chew on their dog beds. Photo taken by Suzanne Carvlin when Rocky and Jaco (as in base player Jaco Pastorius) were little pups growing up in Los Angeles.
- Safety dog collars by Tazlab are available for your use as a guest of The Oxford in Downtown Bend, Oregon. TazLab is a local Bend, Oregon company that makes a variety of fun, safe products for your pet.
Tazlab’s unique dog collar stretches when you don’t have a leash attached to it. That way, your dog won’t be in any danger if its collar becomes snared on a nefarious stray stick or by another dog’s chompers while romping around at Bend’s local dog park.

Tazlab's safety stretch dog collar expands and even breaks away to release your dog if its collar becomes stuck on any object.

Tazlab's dog leashes connect to their safety collar and keep the collar from expanding so your dog will stay at your side on a walk.
Tazlab also provides dog bowls to The Oxford. Tazlab’s patented silicone bowl is called the Aqua-Fur. (cute.) Made from FDA approved food grade silicone, the Aqua-Fur does not contain BPEs, nor have any areas where bacteria can take refuge.
Due to the unique nature of the silicone, you can fold the bowl into your backpack and hit the trails with your pooch, or you can bake a dog-cake in the bowl in your hotel kitchenette! And then wash the bowl in the dishwasher! That is so insanely cool.
Not only will you have pet-friendly paw salve upon check-in, The Oxford has other beauty and fitness treats in store for Fido. Your pet can receive a massage, be groomed, or take advantage of their dog walking services.
Just have your dog dial “O” for the hotel concierge.
You will have one pampered pooch at The Oxford in Bend. If it weren’t for their outstanding people amenities, you might even become a bit jealous!

A stay at The Oxford is no rough day of camping. You and your pooch can hit the slopes, the trails or the shops and return to the lap of luxury in your cozy hotel room. Fido gets his own pet bed, too! Photo courtesy of The Oxford Hotel.
The Oxford is also green and eco-friendly and makes a great modern event or wedding space. Read all about their luxe wedding ameneties here: The Oxford Hotel-Your Modern Wedding Destination in Downtown Bend, Oregon.
