ABOUT

Exercise, both mental and physical, are as important for your pet as for their humans to achieve health and happiness. This is best achieved in groups. Five half-acre yards and a 3600 square foot indoor play space give lots of options for playtimes and play groups! Come tour and you’ll notice the fresh air, clean spaces, and happy tails!

OUR FACILITY

Since 2002, Happy Tails Lodge has been happily welcoming dogs, cats, and their loving owners for boarding, daycare, grooming and supplies in Great Falls, Montana. Originally a veterinary hospital for pets and horses, the 3 acres have been transformed into play yards, and the interior into boarding and grooming. The round barn has been modified into an indoor, open play space with heated floor. The Pet Styling Academy was added in 2014. It has all literally ‘gone to the dogs’!
