SAFE SPACE FOR DOGS

Welcome to Oak Paddock

Oak Paddock is set in the beautiful countryside of Upton, just outside of Poole in Dorset and is adjacent to a ‘Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace’ (SANG) at Frenches Farm and Lytchett Fields which is one of the premier wetland sites in Dorset for roosting birds.

Our private paddock is fully enclosed with 6-foot fencing enabling you to have peace of mind that your dog(s) are safe and secure.

The Paddock has been created to facilitate dogs & puppies who maybe nervous and anxious or recovering from an illness or operation. They may prefer a quiet environment where they can focus on their training without distractions, and not forgetting the joy of just being able to have fun! Who doesn’t love zoomies!

We are conscious of our natural environment and fauna and have tried to keep the area as natural as possible for your dogs to enjoy. We have adventure equipment but also tunnels, log piles, tree trunks, lots of sniffy areas and different terrains.

We are also conscious that the time you spend at Oak Paddock can be as much for the owner as well as your four-legged friend. The secure environment gives you the chance to relax and breathe knowing you have the paddock entirely to yourself for the duration of your booking. Our summer house and picnic tables are there for your use where you can make yourself a drink and take a seat whilst you watch your dog(s) having fun. All we ask is that you respect the space and take any rubbish home with you, ensuring a clean environment for the next visitor.

We do have immediate neighbours so unfortunately if your dog(s) are liable to bark excessively, then the Paddock will not be suitable for you.

There is a car park for a maximum of two cars and this is where you will find the coded gate which will give you access into the Paddock. You will receive a reminder email approximately 2 hours before your session which will contain the gate code to enter the paddock.

Our booking & payment system is through Acuity Scheduling and Square.

Bookings can be made directly through our website. If you would like to arrange an introductory visit to the paddock before booking, please email claire@oakpaddock.co.uk

When making a booking, you will see three different price options in respect of how many dogs you will be bringing with you. Please click on the one that applies and you will then be directed to the calendar showing our latest availability.

We want YOU to feel you are part of the Oak Paddock family so we welcome all reasonable suggestions and ideas. If you have any questions please contact us or check our FAQs page.

We look forward to seeing you
