Just a Dog in a Field Secure Dog Walking Field

18/12/2024

The Epic field will be closed on Monday 23rd afternoon. As the new fence topper and dig barrier will be installed at that time. If your really desperate and your dogs won't eat the contractors, 😉I may be able to let you use the field. Please send me a message

Since many people who use the field have varying degrees of difficulty walking, I personally want to make it easier for them. This won’t make me any money; in fact, it will probably make my life harder.

I’ve now added a button for people to donate to the path for those with walking difficulties. I strongly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy time with their dogs, and what better location than Just a Dog in a Field...Safe, secure and to top it all, its beautiful! It would be wonderful to give people who don’t currently have this opportunity a chance to experience nature, improve their wellbeing, and support their mental health, all while enjoying time with their dogs.

I was originally putting the path in just so that people had a dry area to walk ( you will have to get your feet dirty when you pick up poo, so please wear suitable footwear). But I have now added a few more panels so people with wheelchairs can get into the field, it's not perfect and at the moment . You will need some help pushing and shoving. We will improve this over the coming years but i don't have a ever lasting pot of gold to keep dipping into. So it will take time. A parking area inside the field will be added next year. As you can see from my the video my Tenacious Terrier Tano has been busy helping! 🤣

Hi guys …Could I ask you to send me some Xmas pictures of your dogs please. I have brought some head bands (as in the picture) so if you can get a picture of them at the field that would be great. Please don’t force your dog to wear them but I found lots of treats helps. They will either be on the filing cabinet (Adventure) or in the Filing Cabinet (Epic) please don’t leave them lying around else someone will eat them! Picture is of my baby's Swagger, Tano and Fidget! You will have to messenger or WhatsApp pic 07496076075

It's getting dark so early, I'm having to do the scan for poos with a head touch ..I thought as im doing that, I'd give you a field report, too.. the ground is very good in the Epic field. The Epic field dome is still down, so at the moment, there is no shelter in the field. The houses are all back up, and everything else is in place. The ground in the Adventure field isn't bad either, but there is slight more mud especially at the top of the field.

Wythall Animal Sanctuary would appreciate your help and are asking for shoebox full of goodies for the animals in their care. If you can take them to the shelter that would be great but if you do drop them at the field. In the adventure field Can you make sure you leave them somewhere high up, so the other dogs dont get them and in the Epic field can you leave them in the lost property box outside the gate. ADDRESS FOR THE SHELTER IS ...Middle lane, kings Norton, Headley, Birmingham B380DU

Yesterday must have been bad..I dreamed I got a job in an office. 🤣😂 Don't worry, though. I was woken up by my doggy and remember what it is all about!

At least someone enjoyed the fields today. 😀 Both fields are up and running. They are very squelchy underfoot but if we get a couple of days of no rain, they should dry out nicely. The Epic shelter will take a while to get back together. So I'm working on finding you a temporary fix, so you can stay dry. The houses are also in pieces but will be back together soon.

I do strongly advice people to cancel although the fencing is still secure. It's is horrible up here. The Epic dome is gone. After searching for it for an hour. I have found it in a heap behind the wooden fence. Storm Bert more like storm b++++++

24/11/2024

If anyone would like to cancel today because of storm B Please let me know! The wind is supposed to drop between 9/10am but it's still forecast rain.

Field report ..

Both fields still have a covering of snow. The water is frozen, so you will need to bring water for your dogs to drink. The water sprayer has snapped in the epic field..I will order a new one. Roads are ok and the drive is free of ice. I have attempted to do a poo check but I haven't been able to be as through as normal. Although I am wondering who brought in the baby hippo? As I found a phenomenonly big s*** right by the carpark tut 🤪 on the plus side ..it is very beautiful and lovely and warm in the Epic dome

Can people please wait in the waiting zone and not by the field fence. It is clearly signposted on the left-hand sign.

1 . You stress out the dogs in the field. Even the most placid dogs get annoyed that people are going into their field

2. It spoils people experience and makes them feel uncomfortable

Please wait until the people have left the field and are driving away before you go to the gate. If they haven't left the field on the hour that your slot starts. Then you can drive up to the gate and remind them politely that they need to leave.
