🐾 Happy National Dog Day, Tellico Village! 🐾

Around here, some of our favorite neighbors have four legs, wagging tails, and an uncanny ability to know exactly when we need a little extra love. ❤️

They join us for walks through the Village, rides around the neighborhood, afternoons by the lake, and quiet evenings on the porch. They greet us like we’ve been gone for years—even when we just stepped outside to get the mail. And somehow, they make a house feel even more like home.

Today, we’re celebrating all the pups who make Tellico Village a little happier, a little friendlier, and a whole lot furrier. 🐶🐾

📸 Now we want to see YOUR Tellico Village dogs!
Drop a photo in the comments and tell us their name and their favorite thing to do in the Village.

Let’s fill the comments with the furry faces we love! ❤️

Tennessee's Charming Retirement Village Under An Hour From Knoxville Has Championship Courses And River Views - Islands Florida might get a lot of the attention when it comes to retirement communities, but Tennessee is brimming with them. Tellico Village is worth a look.

Some places are more than buildings—they become part of our story. ❤️

A new chapter begins at Tanasi. A place for familiar faces, new memories, shared meals, laughter, and moments we’ll remember for years to come.

Welcome back, Tanasi. We’ve been waiting for you.

Tanasi Waterfront Dining to open 4 years after fire The Tanasi Clubhouse is opening its waterfront restaurant on Aug. 27, four years after a fire destruction.

WANTED FOR QUESTIONING:

These suspicious characters have recently been spotted roaming around Kahite—and frankly, they appear to be having WAY too much fun.

They are currently WANTED FOR QUESTIONING regarding several highly questionable activities:

⛳ Reckless use of a putter — witnesses say the number of mulligans involved was “concerning.”

🌭 Impersonating lunch — one suspect has reportedly been mistaken for the daily special on more than one occasion.

👨‍🍳 Unauthorized culinary activity — the chef claims everything tastes better when he’s in charge. This remains under investigation.

🏊 Loitering poolside — suspects were caught with their feet in the water, clearly showing absolutely no intention of leaving.

🍹 Suspicious levels of relaxation — possibly fueled by good food, cold drinks, and spending entirely too much time at Kahite.

🏌️ Having more fun than their golf scores justify.

Last seen: golfing, lounging by the pool, and generally living their best Kahite life.

⚠️ DO NOT APPROACH… unless you’re prepared to join them.

If spotted, please report immediately to the Kahite Pub & Grill for further investigation.
