It’s officially the ‘summer’ season and the regular grass cutting has started in earnest.
Matt has started early and is in Harry’s Run and will be doing the tracks as well.
Give him a wave if you see him, he doesn’t like cold very early Saturday mornings when he has a perfectly good cocker spaniel to cuddle up to (and a fiancée, and some cats, of course).

Get in before your ideal slot gets booked up

Our booking system has moved over to Squarespace but nothing should have changed for anyone booking slots.
If you have any issues then please get in touch.

Our booking system is moving to Squarespace soon which caused a temporary glitch today.

Nothing is changing, everything is working as it should now I’ve updated my management app.

Remember to subscribe to our newsletters next time you book to hear about our 10th anniversary offers.
We don’t usually send newsletters but there might be a couple in August you won’t want to miss 😉😉

No, it’s not alien mega moles tunnelling towards Glasgow.
No, it’s not Olly’s new playground.

It’s the stuff being dug out as part of our building work and most of it will be used up around the Big Field yard, and the rest spread out in the boggy area down towards the gate.
Half of it was from just our path to the front door as they put in better drains!

Now, to business.
September 6th is a very special day. It’s Dodside Dogruns’ 10th birthday.
In the last decade we’ve started a trend, created an industry that covers most of the UK, and most importantly helped many thousands of dogs and owners enjoy quality time without stress or danger.
To celebrate 10 years, and to celebrate our customers there’s something special planned but it’s only available to those who’ve visited from June onwards AND have agreed to be contacted.

We will announce details in June but with this weekend’s weather looking fabulous why not get out and enjoy it now

Dodside is approaching its 10th anniversary and are a few small changes coming this summer:
Kezia and Matt (my daughter and son in law) will be moving in and starting to take over the management of the Runs.

Matt has discovered the joy of grass cutting with the tractor so expect more neatness.

We have taken on a trade waste contract with ERC so we will not have the previous issues of not being able to dispose of rubbish. This is NOT a signal for those who empty their cars of rubbish to do it more often. This contract costs us a LOT of money which we are able to absorb for the moment.

The building work on our house is cracking on and as our family expands it’ll become easier for us (me) to keep up the maintenance.

Look out for some offers coming over the next few months. These will only be open to customers who’ve been in the previous few months 😉😉

With Guy Fawkes Night fast approaching Dodside is open until 11pm (ish) every night but remember to bring a torch.

As usual all evening booking fees from the weekends before and after, and the 4th, 5th, and 6th will be donated to local rescue charities.

29/08/2025

With our 9th anniversary only a week away, the special offer is taking shape and will be emailed out later next week.

Meanwhile for those using the Big Field please don’t be alarmed, my house isn’t being knocked down completely, we’re building an annexe (no, it’s not a granny flat because I’m not a granny and it’s not going to be flat) and Kez & Matt will be moving up to join me next spring.

This is part of our long term plan for our home and businesses and it’s just wonderful to have a family business serving your doggy family.

9 years ago today I was introduced to the concept of Facebook Groups when I created one for Dodside Dogruns.
I thought I’d get 20 or so people interested in a secure space for walking dogs where not only coins they not get out but they would not be faced with random people just walking in with other dogs.

Within 24 hours I had 320 people signed up, and over 2,000 within a few months.

First came Libby’s Run, then Harry’s, and finally the Big Field. I created a whole industry with hundreds of places around the UK.

Dodside remains one of the most straight forward, peaceful, and best dog walking fields around. This didn’t happen by accident, it was years of my work, suggestions from customers, and solving wee problems as they came up.

I’d like to thank all everyone who’s used Dodside over the last 9 years and on the 6th September, the anniversary of Libby’s Run opening I’ll be emailing out everyone who’s visited (and agreed to be contacted) in the last 6 months a voucher for a free slot.

Meanwhile, keep those doggies happy by coming to Dodside
