You could stop over at Hotel Mahendra in Satara on NH4 for lunch, but since the doggie is there betetr to try out any of the open-door dhabas on the Pune-Kolhapur stretch.

You could reach Belgaum in 6-8 hours.
Thanks!

I called up a few places, and found a hotel that accepts dogs - Hotel Ramdev in Belgaum.

I was planning to leave at 3 am to avoid the morning rush, and also leave an option for proceeding to Bangalore on the same day if the dog feels upto it. But I think 4:30 am makes better sense perhaps - to avoid Mumbai as well as Pune outskirts traffic.

I will be driving a 4 yr old Tata Indica v2. This will its longest trip so far.
