🏡 Why lodge with us for Halloween?
Halloween means loud fireworks, unfamiliar costumes, extra visitors, and a front door that keeps opening. For some dogs, that’s stressful, and it’s one more chance to slip outside.

Give your dog a fun stay with familiar care and company while you enjoy your own Halloween plans stress-free.

⚠️ Spots are limited, reserve early through your customer account 👻

The Marrow Bone 🦴
Nothing keeps tails wagging quite like a marrow bone! Marrow bones provide a long-lasting, enriching chew while supporting dental health by helping reduce plaque and tartar buildup. They’re also packed with flavour, making them a great way to provide mental stimulation and keep dogs happily occupied. Add one to your stay or order through our retail option for pick up.
1 for $5 or 3 for $12 🐶

🇨🇦 Heading out for Canada Day?

Let your dog celebrate with us!
Fireworks can be stressful for many dogs, but at Island Dog Lodge we’ve created a calm and comfortable environment to help them relax. Our boarding areas are equipped with white noise machines and TVs to help mask outside sounds and reduce the impact of fireworks and other holiday noise.

While you’re enjoying the holiday, your dog can enjoy plenty of care, routine, and attention in a safe setting designed with their comfort in mind. ❤️🐾
Limited Canada Day boarding spots available—book early to avoid disappointment! 🇨🇦🐶

Beach walk & Swim

There’s nothing quite like a beach walk and swim for a dog! 🌊🐾 The combination of exploring new sights and smells, running on the sand, and splashing in the water provides both physical exercise and mental enrichment. Swimming is a great low-impact workout that’s easy on the joints, while the beach gives dogs the freedom to engage their natural instincts through sniffing, exploring, and playing.

The result? A happy, fulfilled pup that returns to the lodge feeling refreshed, enriched, and ready for some well-deserved rest before their next adventure. ☀️💙🐕

Room to run, climb, explore, and just be a dog. 🐾
Our outdoor play yards are designed to give dogs plenty of space for safe, supervised fun. With climbing structures, agility features, open running areas, and lots of fresh Cape Breton air, every day brings new opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and socialization. Whether your dog loves to zoom, play with friends, or simply take in the sights and smells, there’s something for everyone at Island Dog Lodge.

The Freshen Up 🧽 🐕
The freshen up is a basic wash with calming shampoo. An ideal option for those who don’t want a full bath and tidy, but simply want their dog smelling fresh and clean on pick up. It’s the perfect finish to your lodging stay.
