Woodlands Dog Retreat

Woodlands Dog Retreat Woodlands Dog Retreat is a small private park set in a beautiful pine forest where your dog has s**c We are a unique off-lead free-run experience for dogs.

Set in a beautiful pine forest near Bethells Beach, Woodlands Dog Retreat provides your dog with over 10 acres to run and play in their natural habitat. We are a small private facility who believe freedom to socialise in an open outdoor environment is essential to a dog's well-being and calm state of mind. We offer specialized training and daycare services. Our caring and experienced staff offer t

he highest level of care, love and attention for your dog. PICK UP & DROP OFF
We understand how busy life is so we take the stress out of your day by providing a safe & secure pick up and drop off service in a comfortable air-conditioned van. You do not need to be home; you simply give us instructions on how to reach your dog. At Woodlands Dog Retreat, while we give dogs the s**ce to run and play in their natural habitat, we encourage balanced respectful behaviour. We practise calm self-control and do not allow high intensity controlling play. This results in focussed dogs that are respectful to each other and their trainers. We want dogs to feel safe and secure in a controlled environment where we can build confidence and help develop their skills in a tranquil outdoor s**ce. A large indoor covered area provides shelter during bad weather as well as a great place for quiet afternoon downtime & specialised training. Mature pine trees offer shade in the hotter months with 2 natural ponds for dogs to cool off and have some fun splash time.

Monday blues? We don’t know her 🐶

The gang was back together today and having a blast! Whether they’re soaking up a quick patch of sun or dodging the rain, these pups are experts at making the most of every minute. Lots of zoomies, plenty of treats, and non-stop tail wags all day long. Who said Monday’s have to suck??? 🐾

Even with the grey skies outside, the vibes at daycare are nothing but sunshine and zoomies! ☁️➡️☀️

We’ve had the best time shaking off the winter blues with plenty of playtime, belly rubs, and best-friend bonding. The pack is officially tuckered out and ready to head into the weekend absolutely zonked 🐾✨

Stay cozy out there, everyone!

Who says rainy days are a drag? 🌧️🐾
The weather outside might be a bit wild, but the vibes inside (and out in the field) are immaculate. Honestly, the rain just upgraded our playground.

Today included high-speed leaf chasing, aesthetic mud-splatter art, and absolutely zero regrets. We’ve got a pack full of damp fur, happy hearts, and maximum chaotic energy ⚡️

Everyone please give a massive welcome to our newest daycare superstar, Pia!

Pia is a 4-year-old Whippet x Bearded Collie mix, meaning she has the ultimate speed of a sighthound combined with the gorgeous nature of a herding dog! She absolutely crushed her very first day with us. Pia spent the morning chasing balls before turning on the charm as the ultimate social butterfly, making fast friends with every single dog and human in the yard. She finished her day exploring every inch of her new surroundings and finding the absolute best nap spots. She’s already fitting right in, and we are so excited to have her in the pack 🐶🐾

HAPPY FRIDAY 😁 Our daycare crew spent the day playing with their best friends, chasing toys, soaking up the fresh air, and showing off their best zoomies. Seeing these happy pups run free and enjoy every moment together is the perfect way to wrap up the week!

REMINDER! Monday is a public holiday so no daycare. See you back Tuesday and enjoy your long weekend 💛

Just a friendly reminder that we will be closed Monday! Have a fun and safe long weekend, see you all again next Tuesday...

This gorgeous 6-month-old mixed breed had an awesome first day at daycare, full of fun, playtime, and new friends.
She especially hit it off with Riley, who quickly became her first bestie 🐶💕 These two were inseparable from the start!

We’re so excited to have you in the pack, sweet girl 🐾🎉
