Dogs have free run of our house!!! We use our gating system to allow us to have the dogs move freely through the house, but also keep them secure from things we don’t want them to get to (ie. kitchen stuff, cleaning supplies, dog food storage, laundry, and most importantly, escaping to the outside world). We can close the gates and create separate play areas for larger/smaller dog and higher energy/lower energy dogs or we can open them all up and have a multi room/multi level flowing playroom. We are always conscious of the conditions outdoors so we moderate play accordingly. On VERY hot or VERY cold days we ensure that the dogs are not outside longer than is a safe amount of time, or if it very rainy/muddy/freezing rain we take that into consideration!
 
During the day we play outdoors and indoors, depending on the weather and the temperature. The on site pack leader / supervisor manages play and engages our dog pack to ensure that they are not only getting a lot of high energy exercise, but also the rest time that they need. They can play as a group, one on one with other dogs, one on one with a pack leader, rest when they want to, drink when they are thirsty, sun bathe on a nice day, or if it’s rainy and cold they can choose to play indoors in one of our playrooms. Our dogs move/play at their own pace to what suits them best based on their size, age, energy level.
 
Outside or inside, our pack plays all day! We have a consistent daycare pack so they know one another very well and make very close bonds with the other dogs and the pack leaders. When your dog joins our pack they become a part of our family. We don’t have a revolving door of part time staff, we provide a consistent daily routine involving high energy play & group socialization. If you’re looking for the right place for your dog to spend the day while you’re at work or on the go, your dog will be happier here!

We have been providing high energy, off leash dog walking services downtown Toronto since 2008. We have a consistent pack of dogs who walk a minimum of 3 days/week for 2 very important reasons. Our dogs know each other very well and they know their routine. We are not introducing new dogs to another all the time, or multiple new dogs at once. This way we can maintain a much higher level of control over our pack’s behaviour and we can take away the unpredictability factor that is so prevalent at public dog parks. Furthermore, our pick and drop off schedule stays very consistent this way. When we start a new dog we integrate them onto our set driving route and we stick to it every day so that you and your dog can come to expect us in a much narrower window of time than most driving dog walking services.

How Does It Work?

We pick your dog up from your home and bring them to our Private Acre Forest Dog Run for some real high energy off leash play. This land is privately leased and is not open to the public. It’s a completely natural forest that has been fully fenced in; complete with unloading and loading zones so everything is done behind closed gates. It’s a great big space, full of trees, with a totally natural woodchipped substrate. We keep our private land clean and free of garbage, food and poop. We have an onsite water station, as well as fun doggy climbers for the dogs to play on and under 🙂 We do not use any personal toys/balls – only communal ones to avoid possession issues and we do not carry/use treats to control our pack on our outings.

All the dogs that come into our dog run have gone through our Meet & Greet Assessment process and meet our 3 service requirements:

They are Well Socialized, Non Aggressive and Fully Vaccinated.

We only take our dogs to our Private Acre Forest Dog Run, located near Cherry Beach. There are many things we love about our private land but the top five reasons are:

• We Know Every Dog There

  
  The only dogs that are permitted in our space have undergone our assessment process and have been deemed as being “Pack Safe”, which means they meet our 3 requirements for service: They are Well Socialized, Non Aggressive and Fully Vaccinated.

 
 

• We Know Every Person There

  
  We’ve all had bad experiences at a public parks with dog owners/dog walkers who aren’t paying attention to their dogs. At our park our pack leaders are on site to supervise, manage and mediate play. Since it is always the same pack leader picking up your dog they come to know them very well and know how the dogs in the pack are going to react to one another and what their likes/dislikes are!

 
 

• Dogs Can Move at Their Own Pace

  
  We’ve got dogs of all ages and energy levels with us. They can choose to run around through the forest, follow us around if they prefer human play, hang out in the shade under the trees, sun bathe in the tree clearings, play with toys or not, play in groups or one on one – whatever suits their play style, ability and energy level.

 
 

• It’s a More Natural Environment

  
  We love the trees and they provide us with a more natural setting, which always ends up being a great help to us. In the winter they provide an excellent wind barrier and in the summer the shade is absolutely invaluable.

 
 

• Dog Toys, Supplies & Cleanliness

  
  We have everything we need on hand at the dog run; fresh water, dog toys, poo bags, first aid kit, etc. We take pride in the cleanliness of our park and make sure that we are always on the look out for stray poops. We also have fresh wood chips delivered on a regular basis.

 
 

We transport our dog pack in our one of a kind, top of the line dog shuttles. These are the largest, safest vehicles on the road. They are fully customized by industry professionals (the same company that does the Toronto Humane Society vehicles in fact!)

Some of the most important features of these dog shuttles include:

• REINFORCED WALLS FOR SAFETY
• SEALED INTERIORS TO ALLOW FOR PROPER TOP TO BOTTOM SANITATION
• SEPARATE RIDING AREAS FOR SMALL / LARGE DOGS
• PROFESSIONAL GRADE HVAC SYSTEMS
• GPS DRONE TRACKING
• REMOTE START & ENGINE IMMOBILIZERS
• AUTOMATED TEMPERATURE CONTROL (FRONT TO BACK)
• CUSTOM LED LIGHTING FOR THE DOGS

We are happy to open our doors to dogs who are not regular Dog Walking / Dog Daycare / Dog Sitting clients of ours, however, we must always ensure that we only integrate new dogs who meet our 3 Requirements. A meet & greet must be arranged prior to departure for a full assessment.

Our Dog Ranch is located just outside of Apsley, Ontario and is in a short distance from a reputable veterinarian clinic, as well as an emergency service animal hospital.

All supplies for your dogs stay and travel are included in the cost. The only thing you need to pack is food!

• VACCINATION

All dogs must be fully vaccinated to participate in group activities. Mandatory vaccinations in Ontario include: Rabies, DHPP Boosters (Rounds 1, 2, & 3). Though it is not mandatory, we always recommend the Bordetella vaccine (kennel cough)
any time you’re bringing your dog off leash with other dogs (eg. city dog parks).

• SPAYING & NEUTERING

All adult dogs must be fixed. We fully support and encourage the spaying & neutering of dogs and cats. Puppies that are still too young to be spayed/neutered are exempt from this rule.

• TEMPERAMENT AND BEHAVIOUR

All dogs must be well socialized and free from any aggressive/uncontrollable/unpredictable behavior. We absolutely believe that each and every dog can be trained and/or rehabilitated, however these skills require proper training and the pack environment is not suitable for such exercises. The safety of our pack mates always comes first!

At Soulmutts Toronto Ltd. we provide flexible services for you and your dog.  We are a close knit pack and strive to maintain our pack balance by slowly introducing new dogs and keeping them on a consistent schedule.  We are a high energy off leash group environment. On our outings and at our Decked Out Dog Daycare/Boarding House we practice free run socialization. We let the dogs be dogs!

We’ve been around for almost 10 years now and have watched Toronto’s dog walking,
dog daycare and dog boarding business really take off. Though we’re often imitated (sometimes even word for word) we’re never duplicated! We’re always working to offer one of a kind services to you and your dog that you won’t find anywhere else!
