Vineyarders love their dogs! Nowhere on earth is so much attention lavished on man's best friend than here on Martha's Vineyard. You'll meet them in offices, retail stores, beaches & parks (leashed of course), traveling on the ferries,and riding contentedly alongside their owners in pickup trucks & cars. To celebrate this unique bond with our canine companions, MVOL will showcase one of these beloved Island pets each month.
