Would you pay for a secure area to run dogs in?

Moving on from the kennel area thread----would you pay for a secure field to run your dogs in? Maybe including a water feature and areas where you could jump logs, run along planks on the ground etc.

Hired by the hour/half hour and at your own risk.

Maybe an acre or so.

I would within reason (cost wise), and if I had the money I'd be offering it as a service. To be honest I would rather hire a safely enclosed area of woodland for my lot as they love the woods (as do I) and I could have a nice quiet walk for just me and the dogs knowing that no-one else would be around!!

I probably would now and again (especially if the water feature was suitable for swimming), but not daily.

Yes, I would pay for a secure area where I could let my dog run free. At present he has to be on a long line at the park because recall is still an issue when other dogs are around.

But if this secure field could be hired so that my dog was the only one there for say, half an hour, and could really stretch his legs, that would be good.

It would also depend on the price of course, but if it was reasonable it is definitely something I would do!

Definitely. If it was easy for me to get to (as I don't drive) and I could hire it out at a decent cost, then yes I would. I'd probably book it with friends so Axel had others to run around with.

No as I can have access to all these things for free and I do not have dogs that NEED a secure field and I would not own a breed that I could not let off the lead EXCEPT in such an area.

This would be my answer as well.

Take care.
