We just learned of an interesting place to take your dog for an off-leash experience like none we’ve heard of before, and want to share their concept.

 

A Dog Vacation That Helps Rescue Dogs!

Imagine your dog running through gorgeous green fields, exploring nose-down as fast as possible, catching all the smells of the earth – being the happiest dog alive! That’s what happens in the countryside of Glen Highland Farm’s Canine Country Getaway when vacation season is underway. Nestled in the rolling hills of upstate NY, canines and humans delight in discovering an off-leash paradise designed just for them to enjoy. But, this unique dog lover’s vacation does good, too!

As you and your dog frolic through 175 acres of countryside, you can feel great knowing that your camp fee is helping dogs that are a part of the year-round rescue program at Glen Highland Farm (GHF). Your vacation dollars go directly to the dogs! Sweet Border Collie Rescue is on premises in a separate section of Glen Highland Farm, housing up to 40 dogs waiting for their forever homes. The rescue effort has led to the successful rehoming of over 1600 Border Collies to date. This misunderstood and high-energy breed endlessly lands in rescue. The beautiful little puppy never outgrows the need for a job, no matter what age and not everyone has the lifestyle that suits the mentality of an active working dog so the rescue program at GHF is always full.

The beauty of the Canine Country Getaway is that all the spots that you and your dog love, were created by the rescue dogs! They use the trails and fields for hiking too so every spot truly was designed by dogs FOR dogs! The land at Glen Highland Farm was once home to the Iroquois Indians who lived near the beautiful Butternut Creek, a curvy stream filled with trout, abundant wildlife, endangered butterflies, and birds. The Creek winds through 175 acres of rolling meadows and winding trails and a 2-acre spring-fed pond, all perfect surroundings for you to enjoy a great vacation at the same time your dog enjoys an outdoor adventure.

The Canine Country Getaway has a wide selection of RV’s to rent whatever your personal preference or budget for the ultimate in convenience, privacy and luxurious comfort. Got your own RV? Load up the dogs and come on over! We have RV hookup sites for you to rent. There are other lodging choices including spacious luxury tent camping and well-appointed cabins & cottages. The lodging rental fees cover not just accommodations, but also your enjoyment of the property that includes full use of the dining pavilion, pantry, bathroom & shower facilities, rest areas, agility field equipment, the Farm’s trails, the winding creek, the pond and acres of fields and meadows. We provide the perfect backdrop for hiking, swimming and wading, playing fetch, bird watching, relaxing, napping, and more. Plus, there are bike routes for back-road country biking with gorgeous vistas of open land. And, for those who love fishing, there is a spring fed pond filled with trout and bass as part of our catch and release fishing at GHF.

With 175 acres to roam, you and your dog will feel as though you have the Farm all to your own to explore. It’s a very unique vacation experience to have so much land and so few people because dogs can enjoy it all off-leash! Even when the Getaway is fully booked, it’s very private with a maximum of 5 -18 adult guests. Guests travel with their dog(s) from as far away as Canada, California, and Florida! Some guests make the Glen Highland Farm their destination while others pass through while traveling. Read what a few guests have had to say:

For the past three years, we’ve gladly driven 10 hours to spend a few days of pure bliss at Glen Highland Farm’s Canine Country Getaway. We enjoy cooking over a wood fire, roasting marshmallows, exploring the fields, and relaxing in hammocks next to the bubbling stream. The comfortable cabins and hot showers turn this into a luxury vacation. For the dogs… it’s paradise. At Glen Highland Farm, our dogs can just “be”. They can run, swim, and sleep to their hearts’ content. It’s not just a vacation with our dogs, it’s a vacation FOR our dogs. Bless you, for giving us the chance to see what pure joy looks like on a dog’s face. — Danica

Every year I always make sure I go to the farm for my birthday. It is my gift to myself and of course my dogs. They absolutely without a doubt, love love love it here. I hate to leave when the time comes! This year, as with all others was just great. It is wonderful to see your dogs just be dogs and have the time of their lives. — Vanessa
