Private Bookings🌲 Stay & Plays 🐾 Poochy Parties 🎂 Proudly owned by Scouting for Dogs 🐶 The only, fully woodland, dog paddock in Lincolnshire! Paddock in the Pines is run by Alex at Scouting for Dogs, situated in the beautiful and peaceful vicinity that is, Broughton woods, North Lincolnshire! Paddock in the Pines is a 1.7 acre, fully enclosed dog paddock with 6ft fencing - giving you peace of mind

and security when letting your dog’s run free! Our woodland paddock is the perfect location for good sniffs and mental stimulation with lots of activities to keep your dog’s brain busy! Being surrounded by woodland, we have the added bonus of it being much cooler than an open field but please be aware that you must still take extra, and sensible precautions in the summer heat. Bookings and payments are to be made online. Once your booking has been made, you will receive confirmation, directions, and a copy of our t’s & c’s. Please always bring your own water and bowls for your dogs to ensure there is always fresh water available as there is no access to running water in the paddock. Water containers will be provided and although these will be checked regularly, please make Scouting for Dogs aware if they are running low. Please note – by making payment, you are agreeing to having read and understood & that you will comply to our terms and conditions.

Do you know what I've just realised? Despite posting tons of dogs over the last couple of years, I’ve never actually shown my own face on here 😂 So it's probably time for a proper introduction!

Hi 👋 I’m Alex, the human behind Paddock in the Pines 🌲🐾

I’m a qualified dog trainer under the ABTC & PACT, & I also run Scouting for Dogs - offering dog walking, pet sitting, and training! 95% of my life revolves around muddy boots, dog hair, and talking to dogs more than actual humans!

I started working with dogs back in 2017, working in rescue and boarding. I moved on to veterinary in 2021, but the 12-hour shifts and leaving my rescue dog, Pippa (black lab in pic), at home just wasn't worth it for me! So, I created Scouting for Dogs (purely so Pippa could come to work with me every day 🤣🥰)!

Paddock in the Pines was born in 2023, after rescuing my second dog, Piglet (whippet in pic)! Pig didn't half come with her problems, and lord knows it's been a journey and a half! 😅

But Pig pushed me to pursue the dream I'd been chasing for a long time - building something different for dogs like her! Somewhere peaceful, secure, and genuinely calming for dogs to exercise both their minds and their bodies.

After working with hundreds of dogs over the years, from reactive and anxious dogs, dogs who can’t be let off-lead, and those who find normal walks a bit too much, I wanted to create Paddock in the Pines with those dogs at the forefront of my mind. I wanted a space where dogs could just be dogs without the stress of the outside world.

And somehow, this little idea of mine turns 3 years old in July 💛

We’re also the only fully woodland paddock in Lincolnshire! Which makes my little paddock extra special to me 🌲 There are endless natural scents for dogs to explore, and one of my favourite things is seeing dogs leave content, relaxed, and happy after having the chance to properly decompress.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my little businesses over the years and trusting me with your dogs (and of course, following along with the chaos 😅)

If you’ve visited the paddock before, I’d love to see your photos in the comments 👇🌲💛

🐾💛 XL BULLIES WELCOME HERE! 💛🐾

Did you know that we're a member of XL Escapes ?

You won't ever find breed judgement at Paddock in the Pines - ALL breeds are welcome as long as our space is always respected and rules are always followed!

This is the absolutely gorgeous Daisy and her sister, Luna!

Daisy & Luna love their visits to Paddock in the Pines, where they are free to run and play with one another with no judgement and no restrictions 🐾

If you have an excempt breed, we have to keep everything safe and in line with our insurance and ask that owners send over:
- Proof of insurance
- A valid exemption certificate
Both prior to booking.

Once that’s sorted, you’ll receive a lifetime discount as no well-behaved dog deserves to have their freedom taken away from them, and this is my way of giving a little bit of freedom back to those who have had theirs stolen ❤️

Our paddock is fully enclosed and private, so once you’re inside, your dog is free to enjoy the space — no lead or muzzle required while using the paddock!

Join us and let them be relaxed and safe, and enjoy the freedom to run, play, and do what dogs do best! 🌲

Well, that lasted long....

I honestly have no words. I'm so saddened and disappointed that someone would even think about leaving the paddock in this state let alone not even making me aware.

Accidents happen, dogs dig, I absolutely get that. Nothing is going to last forever. But what I absolutely despise, is the disrespect from humans and not having to decency to pop me a message to make me aware or apologise.

At some point this afternoon, dogs have been left to destroy my new sandpit, rip off the wood and fully pull up and tear the base. Not only this, they have been allowed to jump into the planters and tear apart and dig up my plants.

I put so much time, effort and money into this paddock for one person to ruin it within one session.

If anything ever happens during your session and something is damaged, please, please just pop me a message. As I say, accidents happen and I will have far more respect for those who make me aware, than the selfish people who have absolutely no respect for anyone or anything.
