Your Summer Plans Are Booked. Let’s Make Sure Theirs Are Too!

Not every getaway is pet-friendly, but that doesn’t mean your dog has to stay home.

It’s that time again! The weekends fill up with weddings, cottages, and road trips. Calendars are dotted with family visits and time away. But as plans take shape, many people face the same question: What about the dog?

The truth is, many of the places we go in summer, as beautiful as they are, just aren’t built with pets in mind. Resorts with “no pets” policies. Cabins shared with allergic family members. Long drives, crowded events, unfamiliar environments. Suddenly, the getaway feels a little more complicated.

At Happy Tails, we offer a beautiful solution. One that doesn’t leave your dog behind, but sends them somewhere made just for them, where they can enjoy their own cottage country vacation while you enjoy yours.

We’ve spent nearly 30 years offering something unique: a cage-free, off-leash boarding and daycare experience designed to meet a dog’s emotional and physical needs. Set on a beautiful property in Huntsville with 27 fenced parklands and 6 swimming ponds, our resort gives dogs the space to play, explore, rest, and feel free.

At Happy Tails, summer is the season of adventure. It brings a special kind of joy to the resort. The cottage dog lifestyle at its absolute best! 

Dogs revel in the sensory overload of this season. The heat encourages them to take cozy naps or splash around in the ponds during peak sunny hours, while warm early mornings and balmy evenings bring out their most playful, social selves. Some dogs grow bolder in summer, trying new things or becoming more vocal, as sunshine has a way of pulling confidence to the surface. Blue skies, refreshing swims, cool breezes, chippy chases, and spontaneous howls happen when happiness finds its way out like a song on the breeze. Each season brings its own gifts, but summer days feel especially sun-kissed, sweet and limitless.

Some of our guests come to stretch their legs and be free. Others prefer their peace and quiet. All of them come to a place where they’re safe, cared for, and free to enjoy the season on their own terms.

If your summer travels are taking you somewhere your dog can’t go, or if they’d just enjoy a holiday of their own, we’d love to welcome them here.

Let them chase frogs. Let them nap under trees. Let them come home happy, tired, and full of special stories only other dogs would understand.

Their summer vacation is waiting. Book for summer now!
