Our secure dog field is a fully enclosed, private paddock located in the beautiful Warwickshire countryside — easily accessible from Warwick, Leamington Spa and the surrounding villages. It is a dedicated space where dogs can run completely free, off-lead, with no risk of escape, no traffic, no livestock, and no unexpected encounters with unfamiliar dogs or people.
The field is surrounded by robust, dog-proof fencing that is regularly inspected and maintained. The fencing is high enough to deter even the most determined jumpers and secure enough that diggers cannot find a way out. This means that for the duration of your dog's field run, you can relax completely, knowing they are safe. Every fence line is checked before each use, and the gate is secured with a double-latch system for added safety.
The field itself is generously sized — plenty of space for a really good sprint, for fetch games that cover serious ground, and for the kind of unrestricted running that dogs were born to do. The grass is well-maintained, free of hazards, and provides good footing for dogs of all ages and mobility levels. There are interesting scents, sights and sounds of the countryside to explore, all within the safety of the enclosed space.
Using a secure field is different from walking on open land or public footpaths. In open countryside, even the best-trained dog can be tempted to chase wildlife, wander onto roads, or approach other dogs or livestock. A lead is often necessary for safety, which limits your dog's freedom. In a secure field, none of those concerns exist. Your dog can sprint, chase, roll, explore, and simply be a dog, with no restrictions whatsoever.
The secure field is particularly valuable for dogs who cannot be let off-lead in open spaces — reactive dogs, rescue dogs with unsure recall, greyhounds and other sighthounds with a strong prey drive, nervous dogs who need a controlled environment to build confidence, and dogs recovering from injury who need gentle, controlled exercise. It is also a wonderful treat for any dog who simply loves to run.
Our secure field runs are available as part of our solo walk service or can be combined with a group walk. Every field run is supervised by Lucy, who ensures your dog stays safe, hydrated, and happy throughout. We bring fresh water, toys, and treats (with your permission) to make every field visit as enjoyable as possible.
