Towpath Tails Dog Park

Towpath Tails Dog Park Welcome to Towpath Tails Dog Park. We offer two play areas - The Paddock and The Coppice. Water is provided, as is a poo bin. And sanitiser is available.
(1)

A fun, safe and peaceful award winning environment for your dog to run, sniff, play and learn to their doggy hearts delight; and for you to relax and chill out in the rural canal-side setting while they have fun. Nestled within our own Christmas tree plantation and alongside the beautiful Kennet and Avon canal in Wootton Rivers, Towpath Tails Dog Park offers all dog owners a peaceful corner of the

Wiltshire countryside where they can let their dogs off lead safely to have the fun and freedom they deserve. Whether you want to train your puppy, let your older dog have a rummage and rootle, improve your dog’s recall or you have a rescue dog where you need a safe space, away from distractions and causes of fear and anxiety to help you build mutual trust and their confidence – Towpath Tails Dog Park is the perfect place. The Paddock is about half an acre with agility equipment and definitely LARGE ENOUGH FOR RUNNING AND PLAY, but also safe and small enough to keep watch and train. While The Coppice is a larger 3 acre space with a mix of dense and loosely wooded areas. A BIG SPACE FOR RUNNING and SNIFFING, but also great for training and recall. Having been dog owners for over 35 years we know how much it means to have a safe space to let our dogs have some freedom off lead. Our doodles, Hero (RIPπŸ’ž) and Monty, love to go for long walks across the fields but they also love to tear about and play freely together in the safe space of our paddock – and so Towpath Tails Dog Park was created. SECURE - Both of the play areas within Towpath Tails Dog Park are secure spaces available for private individual hire as well as for dog training and events. Both The Paddock and The Coppice have secure 6ft deer fencing all around the field pegged to the ground, with additional rabbit fencing around the bottom and both have various forms of additional screening. Both play areas have access to the secure gated car park from which there is then a further locked secure gate into the respective play area. Both The Paddock and The Coppice then each have a further access gate fenced to 6ft high with low level rabbit fencing for double security. FACILITIES - The play areas are situated well off the village road and are accessed through a gated secure private car park. The Paddock has jumps, tubes ramps, a splash pool, and access to a natural stream. For the humans, there is a shelter with table and chairs and a clear view down the field. The Coppice is a mix of densely packed and more openly spaced mainly mature Christmas trees for a sniffers heaven. There are a couple of shelters with benches and seats, water, a small paddling pool and a poo bin. We visit both areas regularly to check the grounds, facilities and fencing, to top up the water, and to ensure that everything runs smoothly for when you arrive. BOOKINGS – please see our online booking facility on our website - https://www.towpathtails.com/ to book your visit for either The Paddock or The Coppice. If you have any problems with booking - please contact David on 07891 761705 . Each play area

It's been another week of doggy fun and frolics πŸ˜‚πŸΆat Towpath Tails Dog Park this week. Despite the hours getting a bit shorter (how dark 🌚did it suddenly get this week!!!!) and a real mixture of weather 🌞🌀️🌨️🌬️ our puppy visitors have all had a fab time - from dog training sessions , dog walking pack run-arounds, puppy birthday parties and doggy play-dates - to wonderful family orientated hooman and doggie play times, we've seen everything this week.
But sadly our dear Monty left us this week to be with his pals over the rainbow 🌈. We miss him dearly but the angels have a new amazing playmate. ❀️

So it's officially September - and wow, how quickly we can see the evenings starting to draw in. So much so that we have now needed to adjust the closing time at the park to be 8.30pm πŸ•£. Over the next few weeks we will monitor the evening light πŸŒ”πŸŒ› and keep on top of the times we can be open til. Never fear though we are still open from 6am to give plenty of run and fun time for your pooches.

We had fun this summer watching your wonderful pups and youngsters trying to find Towpazz the elusive unicorn πŸ¦„ in the Coppice πŸŒ²πŸŒ²πŸŒ³πŸŒ±πŸŽ‹ and 4 lucky winners have bagged themselves a freebee session in our weekly draws πŸ‘.
We've also used the great summer weather to do some maintenance in the Paddock to get that area autumn ready - and those of you booking the Paddock will see the newly widened and spruced up bridge along with some fresh paint on the equipment, to ensure those energetic pups can continue having a great time on the jumps, slides and tyres. We've even updated some details on our website this summer πŸ˜ƒ.

Here is just a selection of the recent pup visits to our award winning park here at Towpath Tails Dog Park.
