Terms & Conditions

Terms & Conditions

• Bookings are £15 for an hour and £8 for 30 minutes, this is for up to three dogs from one family and then £5 for each additional dog.

• You must not arrive more than 5 minutes before your walk. This is to respect the walkers and their dogs that may be in before you. Many of our walkers have anxious dogs, and arriving too early may cause them stress for a large portion of their walk. Please be respectful of this.

• Bookings cannot be cancelled but they can be rescheduled; however, bookings can only be rescheduled 72 hours before the booking is due to start. This can all be done through the same process you did to book the walk. The 72-hour window allows us time to fill that time slot again. It also prevents people from booking during busy periods to guarantee a slot and then reschedule last minute. We hope you understand.

• The booking is for the immediate family and up to three dogs. Please do not bring friends and extended family without booking or prior notification.

• All dogs must be up to date with their worming, flea, and tick treatments.

• Payments are non-refundable and must be paid to confirm the booking.

XL Bully Type Breed Dogs

As you may know, the government has added XL bully types to the list of banned breeds in England and Wales. It is now illegal to breed, sell, advertise, exchange, gift, rehome, abandon or allow XL bully type dogs to stray. The ban does not currently apply in Scotland or Northern Ireland.

If you currently have an XL bully type we are happy for your dogs to be walked for freedom and peace in our meadow.

We want to help but we will require the following information upon booking:

• Your dog must be registered with the index of exempted dog (IED) and a copy of the registration must be provided to us prior to visiting via email.

• A copy of the 3rd Party insurance certificate for your dog must be provided upon booking via email.

• XL Bullies can be walked to enjoy off-lead and unmuzzled fun on their own or with dogs from their own household. Walkers must be over the age of 18 in the Meadow.

• No other persons from other households are permitted.

• If there are dogs from different households, the XL Bully would then need to remain muzzled and on a lead.

• Your Bully must be neutered in line with government deadlines for neutering.

• Your dog must be micro chipped.

• All dogs must be kept on a lead and muzzled until the gate is shut when entering the field. Move through to the second carpark and shut the separation gate between carparks.

• All dogs must be put back on a lead and re-muzzled before opening the gate to leave the field. Put your Bully back in your vehicle before leaving via the first carpark.

• Please respect all customers.

• Any customer reported for abusing our system or not following these requirements could face a permanent ban.
