Puppy Paddocks

Clover Islands and a sleepy bee left in tonight’s paddock cut.

Forecast to be just as hot tomorrow too!

We don't close the paddocks as some dogs (and owners) need to get out of the house for a bit. We are happy to reschedule slots when it is so hot but if you do need to get out, be sensible and let your dogs just snooffle around, sit in the shade, or have a paddle in the pool.

Please don't make them run around after a ball...however much they tell you they need too.
A disappointed dog is better than a dead one!! 🐶🌞

Lots of hard work done over the last four days. Thankfully the weather was good, plenty of sun to make the work easier.

We have:
•redone both the entrance gates, removing the netting and utilising some puppy pens to make them a bit tidier.
•redone the Sheep Field gate in the same way
•tidied holding pen with new fencing round the bottom and another layer of ballast and shingle, filling in the holes.
•replaced the old green netting with some fresh (very bright!) new netting.
•added fresh straw bales
•replaced the old hurdles and weave poles
•replaced the hand sanitizers as they are still being used.
•added more sand to all the sandboats
•cut all the grass (some of it twice)
•re shingled round the water tray
•weeded the small shelter
•weeded the Runway shelter
•put out the water and new bowl in the Runway shelter
•moved the bench to the Sheep Field tyre for a different place to rest.
•weeded half the Runway shrubs/trees
•propped up the ‘vole run’ fence posts
•straightened up the hawthorn tree, and removed the dead maple.
•added a ‘safety strip’ to the coded gate panel
• cut new paths through the long grass
•moved the forget-me-nots to the posts in The Wildings so they no longer get lost in the grass
•changed the gate code

Other little bits done and the rest to be finished hopefully in the next few evenings!

The new agility course has an added twist.
We hope you and your pups will enjoy all the new bits. 🐶🐾😊❤️

First cut of the year for the small paddock. We try to wait until maintenance week but the grass has really shot up in this warm weather!

07/03/2026

The paddocks will be closed for our annual maintenance time from the 16th to 19th April this year.

From 20th April 2026 there will unfortunately be a small rise in prices to cover our increasing business costs. It is a few years since we increased our fees and we hope you will still think the paddocks are worth this extra small amount.
Bookings will still be for 30, or 60 minutes and we will retain the 15 minute buffer for your dogs' safety.
Thank you for your continued support. 🐶🐾🐾

Happy New Year all, we hope 2026 gives all you need for a great year.

Is your dog reactive, unreliable or just needing a place to run? Our paddocks provide a safe area for play or training.

Wishing a very happy Christmas to all our visitors old and new. Thank you for all your support and visits. xx

Reminder of A47 closures in case it effects your journey to the paddocks.

The B1108 (Watton Road) may be much busier so please indicate well in advance of turning in and double check that no-one is overtaking (impatient idiots 😡) before turning across the road especially if coming from Barford direction.

Safe journeys.

We’re upgrading the A47 between North Tuddenham and Easton in Norfolk to a dual carriageway. This will complete the dual carriageway between Norwich and Dereham, supporting economic growth and easing congestion in the area.
