Our rules

Your dog is always your responsibility when playing on a Happy Hounds field - so make sure you keep an eye on them.

  1. Only 6 dogs allowed per field per booking

  2. Please pick up your dog poo and take it with you when you leave. We pop in to inspect regularly, but if you do spot a rogue dog poo while you’re playing with your pup, please pick it up.

  3. You can now let your dogs off lead in the walkways up to the fields if you so wish as the walkways are now split one for Bark Park & one for Fetch field. Ensure you are back to the car park within your allotted hour so that we don’t have any situations of off lead dogs in walkways with customers & dogs still in the field. We want Happy Hounds to be a safe place for everyone.

  4. If you notice any issues on the field with security or maintenance, give Julie a bell on 07760123345 and we’ll get it fixed as soon as possible.

  5. We will not be held responsible for your dog escaping from our field - remember your dog is your responsibility at all times.

  6. When you’re in the car park please ensure that your dog is on lead.

  7. Do not enter the field until the previous customer has left with their dog.

  8. Our booking slots last for 50 minutes in total - that gives you 5 minutes at the beginning of the session to settle in and 5 minutes at the end to exit and ensure the field is secure for the next booking. If you overstay your slot, you’ll need to pay for the hour you’ve taken.

  9. If you’re struggling to get your dog back at the end of the session, please call us on 07760123345.

  10. Make sure to inspect the field before beginning your session to make sure it’s suitable for your dog.

  11. If you’re late to your session, you can’t extend your booking.

  12. Any damage to the field or breaking of equipment will be paid for by the dog owner.

  13. All dogs using Happy Hounds need to be fully up to date with their flu inoculations, wormers and any vaccinations. If your dog or another dog it lives with is showing ill health (coughing, vomiting, diarrhea etc) then please cancel the session.

  14. Please ensure you lock the gate behind you when you start the session.

  15. Ensure you don’t litter on the field as this could present a risk to the dogs.

  16. Any appointments cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours of your slot time, unfortunately cannot be refunded.

  17. We recommend bringing waterproofs just in case it rains - please remember the field can be muddy!

  18. If bringing a child, you are responsible for them at all times.
