The 6ft fencing and double-gated entry add reassurance for handlers of anxious or escape-prone animals.

What is the ground surface like at Doggy Play Night and Day, and how does it handle wet weather?

The field is grass, and like many natural-surface paddocks in the north-east it can become muddy during or after heavy rain, several owners describe it as 'mini Glastonbury for dogs' in wet conditions. Wellies are recommended for handlers in winter. The on-site dog wash station with hose makes clean-up straightforward before heading home. During drier months, the surface is firm and pleasant. Dogs seem to love the field regardless of conditions, and the mess is easily managed thanks to the wash facilities.
