A message from Proprietor, Linda McCoy

"It has been a long time dream of mine to create a very special place for dogs; where they could be free to run and play and roam all day - where dogs just get to be dogs. That's what we're all about here at Happy Hound Hotel. I have loved dogs all of my life, and have worked with them in various capacities. As difficult as this job can be sometimes, I simply can't imagine doing anything else."
