We love hearing feedback like this:
✨ “Thank you, we had a great time on our first visit. Super to practice some retrieves in cover, hunting patterns and heelwork and stops down the bottom fence line. We will definitely be back.” ✨
That’s why Archie’s Dog Acres exists – safe space, real training, big views, happy dogs.

Some of our four-legged friends have been in touch with serious concerns about pills hidden in cheese… so we thought this was too good not to share!

At Archie’s Acres, the only things you’ll find hidden in the grass are toys, treats, and plenty of sniffs. No sneaky business here — just safe, space for dogs to run free, play, and be themselves.

Book your next adventure with us and let your dogs enjoy the kind of freedom they deserve — pill-free and cheese-approved. 🧀✨

🐶🚮 New poo bin alert! 🚮🐶

We’ve added another bin at Archie’s Acres to make it even easier to pick up after your dog. Please use it — we’ve noticed a rise in poo being left, and it really does spoil the space for others.

Our rules are simple:
✔ Pick up after your dog
✔ Check you’ve booked the right day/time
✔ Leave on time so the next dog gets their turn

Not forgetting the most important enjoy 🐶💕🐾

That’s it. Easy. And it means we can keep prices fair and the field fun for everyone.

Thanks for doing your bit — Archie approves 🐾

🐾 Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

At Archie’s Acres and our little Airbnb The annexe, we get to welcome so many amazing four-legged friends (and their humans too!). Dogs bring it all — love, laughter, patience, the odd bit of frustration — and somehow manage to teach us more about life than we ever expected.

From bounding energy in the field to sleepy cuddles at the end of the day, they’re part of the heart and soul of what we do here.

Here’s to every wagging tail, muddy paw, and nose pressed up at the window — we wouldn’t have it any other way. 💛🐶🐾

Give your dog an extra hug (or treat!) today. They’ve earned it.

We couldn’t resist sharing this one to brighten your Sunday – because let’s be honest, we’ve all felt like that backseat dog at least once!

Whether you’re out early morning walk or curled up with an ice cold drink today, we hope you’re having a good one. And if you’re visiting the field, remember to bring water

Why Archie’s Dog Acres?

Archie was the first dog we added to the Harrison family in 2014 we had both had dogs previously but neither of us were quite prepared for Archie! We created a Ginger Nutter don’t really know how as we read the books, did the training and had behaviourists involved. Archie is very particular about who he socialises with both human and other dogs so for the past few years we preserved with trying to ‘fix’ him and then we took the avoidance method, which wasn’t a failsafe as other dogs and their owners wanted to be his friend despite as screaming no.

This meant us driving everyday to secluded places around South Lanarkshire and it became a dreaded chore to walk him and really became a strain on our life. We had always wanted to find our ‘forever’ home with some land, for veg and fruit growing and were fortunate enough to come across a farm with over 8 acres of land just outside of the village of Braehead in South Lanarkshire and decided to bite the bullet.

Why is it called Archie’s Dog Acres? Simple really. It is his playground first and foremost, hence us blocking off our time for the fields each day. The fields are adjoined to our farm we use them everyday and have made them a safe and secure place to exercise and have fun. Archie loves nothing more than sniffing in the long grass, chasing his frisbee along with some agility training. We know the stresses of trying to find a safe place to exercise or train your furry friend and we want to share our new relaxed walks with others.
