The Pooches Playground – Exclusive Dog Park

A well-maintained, fully enclosed private dog park featuring high fences for security. The facility offers a gated entry system, a warm dog wash station, small agility area with basic equipment, and a shelter for owners. There are bins and toilet bags provided for waste, as well as drinking water for dogs. The location is adjacent to both a main road and a railway, which makes it noisy and potentially stressful for noise-sensitive or reactive dogs. There is open space for running, and booking is required, with payment via PayPal. While basic compared to some other parks, it provides good exercise and freedom for dogs, particularly those who cannot mix with others.
