An enriching environment for your dog to run, play, sniff, discover and learn… a place for you to relax.
Dogwood Adventure Play is set across seven acres of countryside and comprises of two enclosed fields and a training paddock. Our purpose-built fields are available for you and your dog to hire on an individual basis all year round, seven days a week.
Ideal for dogs that cannot be let off lead in public places – perhaps because they do not enjoy meeting other dogs, or for those that don’t have great recall skills, puppies or adult dogs that need to work on training in an enclosed environment, owners of rescue dogs who would like to bond with their new companion, or anyone else who enjoys watching their dog run free. 
Bring a ball or our dog’s favourite toy, make use of the Adventure Play equipment or just relax while your dog sniffs and explores the fascinating environment rich with scent. 
You have exclusive use of the field during your booking. Our coded triple-gate entry system and carefully timed slots mean that you won’t be disturbed. In-field parking allows you to lock the gate before letting your dogs out of your vehicle. 
Adventure Play equipment is provided to increase confidence, range of motion, strength and balance in dogs, while the Sensory Garden is made up of a variety of smalls and textures which reduce stress and anxiety, encourage dogs to be more secure in their surroundings, and provide additional stimulation and enrichment.
We also offer Field Trips, Enrichment Breaks, Training and Dog Walking Services. Please see our website.
We look forward to welcoming you to the first enclosed field in County Durham and Teesside!
