Daisy and Tanner

Dasiy checking out Tanner and his stick.

Doggy and Non-doggy Lovers alike will find comfort in a greeting from our two four-legged hosts and greeters. Those who visit us on a regular basis may even be acknowledged by a large grin and smile accompanied by a wrinkled-up lip and wagging tail from one of them. Daisy is also know for walking in and out from between your legs. It's just her way of saying she likes you!

Both Daisy and Tanner have been raised at the Lodge. They are trained on how to act or NOT react to the native wildlife on property. Their presence out and about the cabins is perfectly acceptable as long as they are not being bothersome to you. Please note, they are perfectly welcome, and feel at home, in your cabin as long as it is approved by you. Open doors invite them in, along with other critters such as chipmunks! You will find that Tanner and Daisy have a remarkable retention of knowing where the garbage can is in each of the units. By keeping doors closed, or simply telling them to "go home," they will respond to your request and realize they are unwanted around your cottage.

We ask that you DO NOT feed Tanner and Daisy, no matter how pathetic their "puppy dog eyes" may seem to be. Studies have shown that excessive people food and/or table scraps may shorten a dogs life by up to five years. If you do feel the need to award them with treats, they are allowed Milk-Bones, and other LOW-FAT doggie treats you can find at your pet store. Their favorite treats are Scoobie Snacks! Please no rawhide or other treated bones. We have 19 units on property. Please only feed them 1 or two small treats. Try multiplying their DTI (Daily Treat Intake) by 19!!

These two dogs are very loving and enjoy spending time with their guests. They are wonderful around children, and are often the highlight of the family vacation.

Daisy is a Chesapeake Bay Retriever and was born on March 2 of 2002. She is a tried and true veteran of McGregor Mountain Lodge and is a huge part of most guests visit to McGregor. Tanner is a Bernese Mountain Dog and was born in November of 2007. He is learning the ropes and is fitting in very well here at the lode. Please note that he is a puppy and very full of all that great puppy energy. If this is a problem in any way while you are a guest at McGregor, please let us know! He is being trained on the ways of the lodge and is proving to be a quick learner!
