White Mill Dog Park Rules

Failure to comply with any of the following rules will result in an immediate and permanent ban from White Mill Dog Park.

Our rules exist to ensure every visitor and every dog can enjoy a safe, clean and stress-free environment.

These rules are enforced consistently and apply equally to every visitor.


Key Rules

  • Always pick up after your dog. Leave the park exactly as you found it.

  • Your booking lasts 50 minutes. Please leave the car park promptly at the end of your session.

  • Do not arrive early. Please wait away from the entrance until your booking time begins.

  • Maximum of three cars per booking.

  • No limit on the number of dogs.

  • These rules apply regardless of the number of dogs attending.


CCTV

The park is protected by CCTV.

We do not routinely monitor the cameras. However, if a complaint is received, we will review the footage.

If the footage confirms a breach of the rules, an immediate and permanent ban will be issued. No warning will be given.


Detailed Rules

Booking Times

Your booking begins the moment you enter the car park.

For example, if your booking starts at 12:00 pm, you should enter the car park at 12:00 pm, not before.

Your booking ends when your vehicle leaves the car park.

Please respect the next customer’s booking by leaving on time.

If your dog is difficult to recall or put back on the lead, allow yourself plenty of time before your session ends.

Repeated early arrivals or late departures may result in a permanent ban.


Arriving on Foot

If you are walking to the park, please wait on the bench provided until the previous visitors have completely left.

This helps keep reactive dogs safe and allows everyone to enjoy their session without interruption.


Dog Waste

Please pick up all dog waste and place it in the bins provided.

If you spot waste left by another visitor and would rather not pick it up, place one of the marker flags beside it and we will remove it.

Repeatedly leaving dog waste will result in a permanent ban.


Dogs Must Never Be Left Alone

Dogs must remain supervised at all times.

If you leave the field for any reason, your dogs must leave with you.


Respect Our Neighbours

Please keep noise to a minimum.

Excited barking when dogs first arrive is understandable, but prolonged barking or excessive shouting is unfair on our neighbours.

If your dogs or group are likely to be particularly noisy, another location may be more suitable.


Respect Other Visitors

Do not enter the field while another booking is still using it.

Please ensure your dogs are back on their leads before your session ends.

Everyone has paid for their own uninterrupted session, so please help us keep it that way.


Dog Trainers & Professional Dog Walkers

Professional dog trainers and dog walkers are very welcome.

However, you must hold your own public liability insurance.

Please contact us before booking, as additional conditions apply.


Cancellations & Rescheduling

Appointments can be:

  • Rescheduled up to 8 hours before your booking.

  • Cancelled up to 12 hours before your booking.

Unfortunately, cancellations made within 12 hours are non-refundable.


XL Bully Dogs

Registered XL Bully dogs are welcome.

They must remain on a lead and muzzled while entering and leaving the park.

Once inside the securely locked field, the lead and muzzle may be removed.

Due to our insurance conditions, registered XL Bullies may not meet other visitors or their dogs during their booking.


General Information

  • The field has no lighting, so please take extra care during darker evenings.

  • Use the park entirely at your own risk.

  • The field may become muddy or waterlogged during wet weather.

  • There are no toilets or running water for visitors.

  • Fresh drinking water is provided for dogs.

  • We do not check the vaccination status of visiting dogs.

  • Please take all litter and damaged toys home with you.
