Forest Oak Farm is located on the outskirts of the Forest of Dean, near the shores of the River Severn. For over two years now we have been on an exciting and roller coaster journey to breath new life into this long neglected farm with hidden natural beauties. The end result? A family run, welcoming haven for local and visiting dog lovers and their canine companions- to enjoy this stunning region, make use of our unique facilities, and get involved in the activities we hold and host. We will be officially opening our doors in 2012!

About Us


Forest Oak Farm is a family run venture run by the Dodson Family. We have been involved in the dog training and sports world for many years and know just how hard it is to find dog friendly venues - be that for a holidays, training or events.


Forest Oak Farm stretches over 20 acres of what was disused and badly neglected farmland. But the moment we stepped foot over the threshold we know it had something very special to offer - something we could not keep to ourselves.


The ultimate goal of our family (ad)venture is to open the doors of our home to others and provide the type of facilities dog lovers want when it comes to holidaying and running or attending a k9 related events - whatever that may be. We are seeking to provide facilities which will also enable people to train with their dogs to high standards as well as supporting the training needs of the local community through our the creation of Forest Oak Dog Training Club.


So come visit us, join us in celebrating all things k9!
