Dogs Welcome!
The Mettawee properties are a canine's dream come true!
“ There is lots of room to run around outside, enjoy a game of frisbee or fetch, or just smell the flowers.
You might just enjoy gazing out the window from a comfortable resting spot.
There are lots of places to explore - at the house and nearby at the Big Branch Wilderness Area - and if you're lucky, you might discover a friendly neighbor's cat, or hear the resident coyotes howling at night which will bring back the wolfie in you.
All of this activity leads to serious nap time. ”
For canine visitors, you may want to take the following things into consideration:
There is a one time fee of $100.00 per pet, per stay
Pet regulations can be found at the end of the rental agreement on the Reservations page
Make sure your pet is updated on all shots and carry documentation with you
Keep any medications on hand that might be needed
Secure their tags properly in place and carry vet/emergency phone numbers
Create a home like environment by bringing a crate, a familiar pillow or blanket and try to stick to a regular feeding and sleeping schedule. Don't forget the chow. Note that both houses are equipped with a large dog crate that is available for your use.
In preparation for snow and ice, trim your dog’s nails and the hair around their feet to prevent chunks of frozen muck from accumulating in their fur. In recent winters, a top crust of ice on the deep snow has made it difficult on our canines. You may want to consider bringing pad protective booties/wax for your dog during the winter months.
For winter visits, you may want to consider bundling your dog up in another layer; smaller breeds in particular will need an extra layer.
