The Wandering Dog Inn:<\/strong>\u00a0 A simple Inn, on a quiet island.<\/p>\n Be charmed by the simplicity of yesteryear when too much screen time was not a concern and the best \u201cconnections\u201d\u00a0 were made on a porch.<\/p>\n Escape the rat race. Bike the island, hit the winery, hike the trails and soak up the sun on your own schedule. It won\u2019t take long before you find yourself on island time where brilliant stars light the night sky and talkative birds become your new alarm clock. If it’s less you’re after; we have more of it.<\/p>\n We came to Pelee Island in 2009 and our dog, Fred, quickly made friends with every human and dog he came across during his hours wandering the beach. Our founding Fred has crossed the rainbow bridge but lives on in the many memories of his antics. His l’il sister Jody is way less wander-y but has has big pawprints to fill all the same. Try out island-dog beach life yourself and get wandering while you are here!<\/p>\n Welcome to Pelee Island and welcome to the Wandering Dog Inn. Live simply and wander well!<\/p>\n Kevin + Cathy Miller<\/em> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”5px||5px|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”] <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Breakfast?: Depends on what you call breakfast… ” open=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n We understand you desperately want gourmet waffles, with heavy cream and fresh strawberries\u2026 but the dog ate all that.
