Today is going to be a beautiful day 🌞 and looking good 👍 all weekend..yippee!
I'll try and get the grass cut ✂️ again tonight.

A few points to remember when visiting the field 🙏.

🐾 It's a safe place, calm and relaxed for owners and their dogs so please be patient and wait until the person before you is out the field before you get your dog out the car 🚗.

🐾 Poo picking has really improved...so Thank you! Always keep an eye on your dog 🐕.

🐾 All rubbish ( coffee cups/ litter/ broken balls ) to go in the bin 🗑.

🐾 Only Arrive 5 /10 mins before your appointment, no need to come too early ⏰️.

🐾 I know it's a Natural thing for dogs to do but please don't let your dog dig holes in the field.

🐾 Be mindful of the person who is booked in after you and be out the field on time 🙂.

Have a great day everyone.

Emma

Look 👁 What's NEW in the field today 👀.
Some new pieces of equipment!

Great for taking photos on or if your dog likes being a bit higher to see what's going on In the field , these are perfect 💚.

DogGo was the first customer to use them and they got the Paws 🐾 Up from the group!

Thanks to Papa Andy and my youngest son for painting them and putting artifical grass on top.

Please remember that agility tunnels, jumps and the new additions are only for dogs...NOT for children to climb on! 🙏

It is your responsibility to ensure your dog is safe in the field at all times.If your dog is of a smaller size keep a hold of them as we don't want any accidents. 🤞😄.

🐾 Over the last few weeks I have had more and more customers meeting up in the field..which is great!
A reminder that NO more than 3 cars 🚗 per 1 hour booking.

Recently I had 4 cars/6 dogs booked in for 30mins...that's only £1.75 per car 🤣.

Thanks very much.

Firstly, I apologise for the first photo 🤢 but I have to show what I am finding on a nearly daily basis when I check the field at 8pm.

Yesterday I found soil in a straight line 🤔 as I looked there was POO 💩 underneath! So someone saw their dog 🐕 poo and covered it with soil instead of picking it up 😔 .
OR the customer was not watching their dog and another customer covered it up to prevent standing in it 🙄.

I pride myself and my field in being THE best field in the area.

🐾 It's FULLY secure

🐾 I try and keep the grass 🟩 cut on a regular basis

☕️ Tea / coffee area is cleaned every morning

🗑 Bin is cleaned and bag changed every night

🚮 I pick up any litter I find

⏰️ I set up the field EVERY morning and check EVERY evening 🌃...There's no one else who helps me...just me!

😄 I am always helpful and friendly and Try and meet as many customers as I can when I am at home 🏡

BUT more often I am getting rather frustrated with the minority of Customers who don't keep an eye 👁 on their dogs.

My prices have been the same for nearly 4 years and I appreciate my regulars who pick up the odd poo / tennis ball that is left but if you Hire the field it's YOUR responsibility to pick up poo, litter, toys and keep the field Clean & tidy throughout the day 🙏.

If your dog has runny poos / upset Tummy...DO NOT bring them to the field as other dogs may get ill. Send me a message and I will be more than happy to swap your booking to another day.

I love running the field and seeing dogs enjoy their time off lead and I have always had amazing feedback from NEW customers about how Kirkgunzeon Canines is the best field. Which is amazing 👏.

I have already bought 3 Paddling pools and put 2 agility jumps and 2 tunnels in the bin since June.

The equipment is for dogs..not for children to use/ jump on . The poles are not to be used at play sticks and not to be chewed by dogs ( yes, I've seen this happen various times!).

Again, I am sorry to have to write ✍️ a not so pleasant post but I felt I had no option but to remind Customers to be understanding that this is MY ( Emma) Business...not a big company with lots of staff 😊. Just Me 🤣.

Hope you can all understand 🙏 ❤️.

Thank you
Emma x

My oldest dog Nala had her reading glasses on last night 👓 and she was reading out "The Rules of the field" 🤣. I thought I would share them as a reminder ;

🚗 Park in the space closest to the field gate ( if it's avaialble)

🐕 DO NOT approach the gate to my garden to talk to the
dogs. ( they are friendly but are getting more and more reactive)

🐶 DO NOT take your dog over to see my dogs either ✋️

💩 Always keep an eye on your dog in the field so you can see where they are doing the toilet 🚻. Pick it up

☕️ If you have a cuppa please put all cups / tea bags in the poo bin and use a wipe to clean the surface after u have made a cuppa

⚽️ Collect all toys you use and put in grey basket

🚗 Keep your dog in the car until the person before is out the field

⏰️ Dont arrive too early for your appointment. 5 /10 mins is perfect

💧If the Paddling Pool is out Please don't move it, if it needs filled up with fresh water just let me know!

Thanks for taking the time to help Nala 🐾 with the rules!

✋11.09 am..Customer who has just been in the field️ has now said the road to dumfries is back OPEN! 🥳
----------------☆☆☆☆-----------------------
Road from Dumfries is closed again today for a few hours, for safety.
So if you are coming from that way please allow extra time to get here via New Abbey.

Dalbeattie road is open!

The amount of money I have lost this week is astonishing 💰😥.

A photo of myself giving Margaret £648!

Money from "Big Doggy Day Out", Tin from "The Pup Hut" and money from my shop Raw Meats and Treats .

A HUGE Thank you to all my wonderful customers for donating spare change and supporting this wonderful charity. 😊

Some lovely visitors over the last couple of days to Graham and Margaret's house in Kirkgunzeon all of whom came bearing gifts. Firstly, Matt from Damhead Kennels up at Tinwald dropped in with £145 made up from some sales and donations into our charity tin. Then Julia and Robert from Dalbeattie dropped in with £26.50 from an event they attended to raise funds for DCGR. Lastly, Emma Maxwell from Kirkgunzeon Canines dropped by with the DCGR Charity bucket she has in her shop (the excellent Raw Meats and Treats), the DCGR Charity Tin she has in her Freedom Field AND a donation from the Big Doggy Day Out she helped run at Ringford on the 16th. Total from Emma was over £648!! As a result of what these lovely supporters have done, over £820 will be banked tomorrow.
As you all know, DCGR is run by volunteers so every penny will be used to further our mission in finding homes for ex-racing greyhounds.
Thank you to Matt, Robert, Julia and Emma for your most excellent work.
Picture shows DCGR volunteer Margaret Hill receiving the "goodies" from Emma

** EDIT...Just spoke to workers on the road.
Its open coming From Dumfries but Closed from Dalbeattie today. Detour is via Haugh of Urr / Back road to Kirkgunzeon **

Signs were put out recently informing road users that the A711 from Dumfries to Dalbeattie will be closed today, Wed & Thurs.

Unfortunately, all it states is its still OK ' for local use' ?

If you have booked the field over the next few days please allow an extra 10mins to get to the field.
( not sure yet exactly where it is closed or if there will be a detour)

Will update page when I know a 8am.

Thanks, Emma

Good Evening 😊

Great news 👏 if you haven't already seen on the booking page the field is open 7 days a week from 8am - 8pm during the Summer. 🌞

More time for you and your dog to enjoy stress free, secure time in the field.

Could I please ask you ALL to remember and park in the space NEAREST the field gate when it's free.
There is 3 parking spaces infront of the logstore and 2 beside my shop.
Please park thoughtfully so others can come in/out safely. 🚗

If you are feeding your dogs treats / scatter feeding can you ensure ALL food is picked up.
Alot of dogs are allergic to certain foods and I wouldn't want to have to rush them to a vet!

I am trying to keep on top of the grass 💚 and try to cut it twice a week...this might not be possible if it rains.

Thank you for always supporting me and my field 🙏. I do try and talk to as many of you as I can but since opening the shop my 'free' time is non existent 🤣🤣.

I wouldn't change it for the world 🌏.
Shop Opening Hours are :

Mon 4pm - 7pm
Tues CLOSED
Wed 4pm - 7pm
Thurs 10am - 3pm

🐾 If its your dog Please don't say what breed they r! 🤣

Or post your dog and others can comment !

P.s. My son will choose his fav and they will get 2 x 30mins free run in the field! 🎊😊🐾

Good luck 🍀

26/05/2024

One of the best things about running the field is getting to know alot of the dogs 🐕.
From being puppies to adults, rescues settling into new homes or energetic teenagers!

But the other side is when they pass up to the rainbow 🌈 bridge.

Yesterday was a bad day 😪.
1 little girl had a tumour and another had an awful accident.
Both , no longer here 😢.

One of the dogs..Morag has been coming for her zoomies every week since the day I opened!
She would see me in the field and sprint towards me..smiling 😊.
I will miss her dearly.

If you want a keepsake with your pets ashes, my very good friend has a local business Forget me not keepsakes .

Please like her page or send her a message if you are wanting jewellery, tea light holders, paper weight or something special to remember your best friend 🧡 🐾🐶.

If only our beloved dogs could be with us for longer.
Please give them all a big hug 🫂 now from me. ❤️

16/05/2024

We are being spoiled with this wonderful weather lately 😎.

Please book early in advance if you want a weekend slot for the field!

I've put out the ball pit and Paddling Pool now.

Please keep an eye on your dog at all times in the field 🙏.

Remember :

🐾 Park in SPACE 1 CLOSEST to the field gate if it is free

🐾 Pick up your dogs poo 💩

🐾 If you have a cuppa, put ALL rubbish in the bin

🐾 Collect any balls/toys used and put in grey basket to be washed

🐾 Don't let your dog jump up onto the shelving in the Pup Hut

🐾 If its warm...hose your dog down before a run around

🐾 When possible don't arrive too early as you will have to wait in your car for your appointed time slot

🐾 PLEASE don't come to the gate to talk to my dogs...they are friendly but they will bark

🐾 Please feel free to pop into my new shop onsite....very exciting new products coming in..just for the Summer ☀️

What a glorious evening 😎.

For those of you who don't know me Im Emma Maxwell the owner and CEO of Kirkgunzeon Canines 😀🐾.

The field is a 2 acre Fully Secured Freedom field available for private hire, £5 for 30mins or £10 for an hour.

The fence is different from any other fields in Dumfries & Galloway.
I purposely designed it this way so I can guarantee 💯 that it's safe! The fencing has been dug a foot under the ground so fantastic for escape artists.

I am very proud to say in over 3 years since I opened I have never had a dog 🐕 find a hole/gap in the fencing to get out 🙏.

I personally check the field morning 🌄 and night 🌙.

So if you are training a puppy 🐶, have a dog with poor recall, a rescue, a dog that's likes to be off lead or you just want somewhere to meet a friend please book online via my website or on my page.

Local Vets recommend my field to alot of their clients to help with weight loss 📉 or dogs with anxiety ( meeting other dogs) 😀.

www.kirkgunzeoncanines.co.uk

Thank you to all my customers for sharing posts, liking 👍 my posts or continually booking week in, week out.

Here's a few photos of the field tonight.

What a wonderful evening we had at The Local Pet Awards last Night 🍸💃.

A HUGE Thank you to DogGo for also being a FINALIST, supporting me since we met and for making sure we all had a great time at the event. ❤️😊.

The field did not get overall winner 😔 in its category.

My shop Raw Meats and Treats did not win either.

BUT it's only a piece of paper!🤣

I was really encouraged with all the nominations as they were all a team 👫...MY field and MY shop is only ran by ME 👩.

I am the receptionist, I am the poo picker, I am the voice at the end of the phone, the person who messages you, I am the person who had the dream and made it come true 👍, I am the book keeper, The stock controller, the merchandiser... just me.

So when you book the field or pop into my shop YOU are helping my wee businesses grow ❤️ and for that I cannot be prouder. 💛

Thanks to my wonderful Husband, Greig for coming 👨.
He is there to fix what ever needs fixing , build something for the shop/field or listen to me when I'm feeling down 😔or having a bad day.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO VOTED. I HONESTLY THOUGHT I HAD WON!

I counted over 150 votes 🗳 😍.

Here's some photos of the brilliant night 🐕🧉👗

I am disappointed but I made it to The Finals to an award ceremony that is based for The Pet Industry AND one of the very few you don't have to pay for! 😕

Thanks , Emma xx 🙏

16/04/2024

Is Spring ☀️🌻🌹 creeping in? I hope so 🤞.

Today has been lovely when the sun was out. I had my 5 dogs in the field at lunchtime and had to take some photos. 🟦

The grass is growing...🟩. I feel like all I check every day is ...the forecast and how muddy the field is 🤣🤣.

I will be extending my opening hours, so more time for your dogs to have off lead fun in a safe & secure field.

The views 🌄 were stunning today from the field.😍.

When I'm in my shop, I think how lucky I am to have lived here for the last 16 years. ❤️🐾🐎.
