It's best to ask the locals. Although it is important to be aware of where you are going, leaving your dog in its travel-passenger kennel should keep him or her safe if he or she is soundly asleep. I have heard that there are stray dogs on Poodle Beach beach sometimes, so beware! Hope this answers your question! Good luck with your travels!
One would need to know the issue with mosquitoes on Poodles Beach so their dog doesn't contract malaria or West Nile Virus, but other than that it might be OK...
