What is a secure dog park?
A secure dog park is a private, securely-fenced field that dog owners book by the slot for off-lead exercise.
No staff on site. No livestock. No crops. Just well-fenced land, a booking system, and demand that's already there.
Why it works in Britain - and will revolutionize the US Dog Park concept
Britain built dog parks out of necessity. Small gardens, crowded countryside paths, and a lot of anxious dogs. The result was a business model that blends animal welfare with practicality. Over 4,000 secure dog parks now operate across every UK county. Together they've grown into a £200 million-a-year industry, sitting comfortably alongside camping, glamping, and farm shops as a staple of farm diversification. The parks we've worked on generate, on average, the equivalent of $50,000 to $75,000 a year. From land that was underperforming.
Why it's a perfect fit for American landowners.
America has the space, the dogs, and the appetite for better parks. But most public dog parks are chaotic, overused, and unregulated. The British model is calm, contained, and designed to work on farmland, pasture, or woodland edges. Low noise, low impact, and almost entirely passive once set up. We can help you adapt the proven UK blueprint for American conditions, from layout and fencing to booking systems, insurance, and pricing.
Hi, I'm Hannah.
If we haven't met yet, I'm Hannah, founder of The Dog Park Consulting Co and the person you'll be talking to on our call.
Over the last seven years I've helped 300+ landowners set up or improve their dog parks, lift their bookings, and make more money.
Alongside The Dog Park Consulting Co, I built and run British Dog Fields, the UK's go-to directory of secure parks, and I run a membership organisation that helps established UK park owners keep their parks performing well.
I made every cock-up there is to make running my own park, which means I can spot them coming a mile off in someone else's plans! We take on a small number of overseas clients each year, and the free consultation is the easiest way to find out whether we can help.

Client Experiences
"Setting up our new dog field felt like a daunting task, until we connected with Hannah. From the very beginning, Hannah made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. She guided us through the essential dos and don'ts of running a dog park, helped us set up our website and booking system, and was there to support us through the unexpected challenges that popped up in the early weeks.
Her knowledge, patience, and hands-on support have made a huge difference, and we genuinely couldn't have done it without her. If you're thinking about setting up a dog field and want to know what good looks like, speak to Hannah. We recommend her without hesitation."

"I wanted to say a massive thank you to you for all of the advice you gave earlier in the year. You were a massive help when we were setting up and I really appreciate all of your time on calls and emails"
Tim Phipps, Braunston Fields
"As soon as we made the decision to open South Acres Fields, we got in touch with British Dog Fields to make sure that we had expert advice right from the beginning. Hannah's knowledge and experience has been invaluable, and we are absolutely delighted to officially become an accredited field.
The work doesn't stop here of course. Hannah has given us plenty of ideas to work towards and we have some exciting improvements coming to the fields in the near future"
Mathew Bell, South Acres
"From my first contact with Hannah to now having a live online booking system the process has been extremely smooth. Hannah has been on hand every step of the way to assist with all aspects of the system, including speaking to my customers when they've been unsure about the process. The system is very easy to use and my bookings have significantly increased.
I would highly recommend signing up with Hannah to get more visitors to your field"
Peta Stanley, Oaklands Secure Dog Field
"Coming across Hannah's website was an absolute god send! I have been wanting to set up my own dog walking field for quite some time now but I just had so many questions and didn't even know where to start. After having just one conversation with Hannah, it has allowed me to focus my efforts in a clear direction and so many of my questions have already been answered."
