Frequently Asked Questions About Contented Canines
Contented Canines operates on a private hire basis, so you and your dog have the entire field to yourselves during your session. This solo booking model has proven particularly valuable for owners of highly reactive German Shepherds and newly adopted rescue dogs who aren't yet safe off-lead elsewhere. Local dog owners tell us their anxious and nervous dogs thrive here because there are no unexpected encounters or distractions, just uninterrupted space to run, explore, and build confidence at their own pace.
The site includes two fields, both equipped with water bowls and taps, poo bags, and undercover seating for owners. Field 2 features a gated pond where you can choose whether your dog swims, plus agility tunnels in multiple sizes to suit dogs of all breeds, a small sandpit for natural digging, and a woodpile area for jumping and play. Owners we hear from in Staverton appreciate the thoughtful layout, shade for hot days, varied equipment, and plenty to keep dogs engaged throughout their session.
The main field at Contented Canines spans six acres, giving dogs of all energy levels ample room to race around, sniff, and explore during their private hire slot. Local owners report that even high-energy breeds like Malinois and Boxers have space to properly stretch their legs, while older or slower dogs can plod comfortably at their own pace. The generous size means your dog can genuinely run freely rather than simply circling a small paddock.
Contented Canines is situated in Staverton in the South West, set back from the main road for a quieter environment. Dog owners in the Cheltenham area tell us the site offers easy access in and out, with straightforward parking that makes drop-off simple even if you're managing an excitable or anxious dog. The location strikes a balance between rural peace and convenient reach for local dog walkers.
Yes, alongside the private hire fields, Nicky at Contented Canines provides professional dog training. Local owners of challenging breeds, including pairs of Boxers, report significant improvements in behaviour and recall after working with her. If your dog needs structured support as well as off-lead exercise space, Contented Canines offers both under one roof, which can be particularly helpful for rescue dogs or those with ongoing training goals.
