* * Open Space / Ball Throwing Area * *

It's grass growing season and after a sluggish start, The Long Run Field is now covered with a luscious amount of greenery.

However it has been noticed that the longer grass has removed an area for dogs who prefer shorter vegetation to chase balls, catch frisbees or run in large circles.

So starting with the field topping machinery, steps are being taken to remedy this in order to recreate some open space where dogs can run and get up to speed.

Don't forget that feedback is always welcome. If there is anything else in particular that you'd like to see in the fields, just get in touch.

* * Contact From A Dog Rescue Charity * *

Bromsgrove Field Hire has received a request from a local dog rescue charity in Solihull, to display their poster.

They are a foster based organisation and all their fosterers are local to the West Midlands so that they can be supplied with dog food and equipment whilst they continue to look for new homes for the dogs.

Many are described as very friendly with other dogs, but some can be frightened and need a one to one or another dog to gain confidence.

There are application forms on their website (in the foster section) and information sheets that can be sent out. In addition, there is a foster co-ordinator and a whats app group for full support

Please get in touch directly with Dog Watch UK if you can help.

* * Polite Reminder * *

The incidences of 'missed' / 'stray' poo in the fields are creeping up again - particularly in the Half Past Field - and EVERYONE who visits is responsible for picking up after their dog.

Even if you don't actually spot your dog doing a poo, you should assume that if it comes here, it has. If you can't see it, but spot a different one, please pick it up as a replacement.

It is appreciated that poos can be missed / are hard to locate once done / dogs run off quickly before you've got 'eyes on' and so on, but if you can't find your own dog's poo, please try to at least pick another up in its place if you see one.

Stepping in pooh is really disappointing and disgusting as well as being a health and safety hazard. Some dogs also eat it !

So please help to keep the fields as clean as they can be and IF YOU ARE NOT CLEANING UP, YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE.

Thank you
Bromsgrove Field Hire Team

p.s. Don't forget that a Field Care Points Scheme is also in place that awards free credits for help maintaining the fields (including looking out for 'missed' pooh). More information is available at https://www.bromsgrovefieldhire.co.uk/?page_id=9275 if you'd like to get involved

* * Upgraded Splash Pool * *

It's getting warmer and whilst more daylight hours, sunshine and higher temperatures are very welcome, it is important to have the option of a splash area for doggie visitors to cool off in if they would like to.

The water 'pool' in the Half Past Field has had an upgrade ready for the summer months.

There are also new swing chairs in the fields, so whilst your dog is refreshing its paws, why not take a moment to enjoy the views and have five minutes out from a busy day.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

* * Found Property & Easter Weekend * *

Found Property
A large dog drying 'rug' has been found. If it's yours, let us know the colour and we'll make sure it gets returned to its owner

Sandpit 'Top Up'
More sand has been added to the dig pit in The Long Run Field to make it 'Spring ready' for digging paws

Additional Swing Seat
An additional seating option has also been put in The Long Run Field

Easter Weekend
The fields are remaining open each day as phone / email assistance will still be available (although there may be a short delay), so it's especially important that booking dates, times and gate codes are checked BEFORE visiting please.

Hope everyone has a very Happy Easter and the sun shines !

* * * * It's Easter Hunt Time ! * *

Easter is just around the corner and two 'hunts' are running throughout April.

Taking part is a great way to save money as ALL correct entrants 'win' a return visit / extra credit. There's also a grand prize draw at the start of May, where a further 10 free credits are given out.

Just count the right number of themed stones that are hidden around the field - it's really easy to play. There are even complimentary sweets to encourage (or bribe!) other family members or companions to help in the search and reward them for their efforts.

Pick up an entry card from the field shelter and Happy hunting !
