Frequently Asked Questions About Release The Dogs

Each session at Release The Dogs runs for 50 minutes, giving you and your dog plenty of time to explore the 1.5-acre field. You'll find water bowls, a dog waste bin, shelter, seating, and basic agility equipment on site. The field is private hire only, one group at a time, so you won't be disturbed. There's also CCTV and on-site parking. Prices start from around £9 per session, so confirm current rates when you book.

What kind of terrain can I expect at Release The Dogs' Manchester fields?

The fields offer rural, open space with natural features including hillocks, molehills, streams, puddles, logs and a bit of mud. Owners we hear from say their dogs love the varied landscape, one mentioned the small wooded area and agility tunnels, while another praised the wide-open space for ball games. It's authentic countryside terrain rather than flat grass, which many dogs find more engaging.

Is Release The Dogs suitable for reactive or nervous dogs?

Yes, it's particularly popular with owners of reactive, nervous and anxious dogs. The solo-hire model means your dog won't encounter others during your session, and owners tell us it's given dogs who can't be let off-lead in public the chance to finally run freely. The business also welcomes dogs with poor recall, those in heat, older dogs recovering from injury, and strong pullers, up to eight dogs per booking if they're from the same household.

What security features does Release The Dogs in Manchester provide?

All fields at Release The Dogs are fully enclosed with fencing that's six foot or higher, giving owners real. Entry is via coded PIN, and there's CCTV in the car parks. One owner told us it was the first time she felt safe walking alone in the morning without looking over her shoulder, while another with a reactive German Shepherd said the tall, stable fencing meant she could finally relax while her dog played off-lead.

How easy is it to book and access Release The Dogs' fields near Manchester?

Booking is straightforward online, and owners report it's simple to follow the instructions once you arrive. There's comfortable on-site parking close to each field, and you access your hired space using a unique PIN code. The site is just off the dual carriageway after Barton Aerodrome, making it convenient for owners coming from Rochdale, central Manchester and surrounding areas. Fields do get booked up, so planning ahead is advisable.
