Adventures await! Chase Joy. Run Free. Find Your Heart Song. 
Where tail wags meet tree whispers and every step is a fairytale in the making.

Nestled on 12 acres of private, enchanted woodland just minutes from Goderich, Ontario, Forest Tails is more than a camp—it’s a heart-centered haven where dogs are free to: run wild, chase wonder and remember what it means to be free.

Each visit is a soulful adventure, curated with care and intuition. Through forest trails, splashing pure spring-fed pond swims (seasonal), and nose-led exploration, your dog will experience physical freedom, whole-body conditioning, and a deeper sense of connection to themselves and other canine friends.

I don’t just run a camp— I shepherd a pack. I listen to the quiet needs beneath the bark, celebrate every breakthrough, and hold space for joy, healing, and transformation—tail by tail. Each day at dog camp feels like stepping into a living love letter between nature and joy. From the moment the first tail wags in greeting, to the final sleepy ride home, I am immersed in a world where connection is pure, and presence is everything. I watch as dogs—each with their quirks, fears, and bursts of courage—blossom in the wild open spaces. Some run with reckless abandon through the forest paths, others find peace in a shady spot beside me, listening to the wind.

I’ve seen timid souls learn to trust, wild hearts soften, and friendships—between dogs and humans alike—spark into life. There is no greater reward than witnessing transformation through play, through the gentle rhythm of the natural world. Think forest therapy meets play therapy — the result? Dogs that return home calmer, brighter, and deeply fulfilled. It’s a total wellness reset for body, mind and soul.

 

My heart swells every time a pup turns mid-run, just to make sure I’m still there, eyes locking with mine in that silent, soul-deep language only animals speak. I don’t just run a camp, I hold sacred space for healing, for belonging and for stepping wholeheartedly into one’s true and fullest joy filled nature.

This isn’t just work. It’s a calling. It’s soul-craft in motion, with muddy paws and tongues lolling in joy. It’s where I feel most alive, most needed, and most grateful.
