An older pooch and his people find plenty to love on dog-friendly Nantucket Island.
It was our first full day on Nantucket Island, Mass., and in our first hour at Jetties Beach, dog-friendly like all of the beaches on this island, Odie had made half a dozen friends and received numerous compliments on his good looks. Before the hound-loving girls came upon our frolicking pup, Odie played fetch with two little boys, while my husband, Steve, and I made small talk with the parents.
Steve and I are not Nantucket regulars, yet we did enjoy a blissful few days on the island for our mini-moon in May 2016. I met a dog that trip, a gorgeous Great Dane whose name I have forgotten, but whose face I never could. Clearly, I am biased toward hounds, with their sweet faces and mild tempers, but I was not at all surprised by the welcome Odie received on Nantucket, where golden-somethings appeared to be the dominant breed.For four days, our family of three explored the tiny island off Cape Cod, Mass., playing by the shore on Cisco Beach and relaxing on the sand with books andsandwiches.
