Edinburgh Dog Parks

Private hire
Edinburgh, Midlothian

About Edinburgh Dog Parks Edinburgh Dog Parks is a group of four enclosed private parks at Boghall Farm, at the foot of the Pentland Hills on the Biggar Road and less than five minutes from Hillend. Three are full-size parks, and the fourth is a smaller park set aside for puppies and training. Every booking is exclusive, so your dog has the park to itself, and family or friends are welcome to come along as long as they stay for the whole session. The owners describe the parks as suited to reactive dogs, recall training and puppies. Some of the parks share a fence line and others don't, so if your dog is reactive it is worth asking which park suits best when you book. Your gate code arrives by email two hours before your slot. Keep dogs on the lead until you are inside the park, and reset the combination lock to 0-0-0-0 as you leave. Poo bags and bins are provided, and bookings can be cancelled with 24 hours' notice for a full refund. The parks are open from 7am to 8pm, seven days a week. Getting There Boghall Farm, Biggar Road, Edinburgh, EH10 7DX.

Choosing the Right Dog Field in Edinburgh

Finding the perfect secure space for your dog in Edinburgh depends on your specific training needs. While all our listed locations offer enclosed environments, consider these factors before booking:

Fencing Height

Standard deer fencing (1.8m) is suitable for most breeds, but if you have a known jumper (like a Husky or Collie mix), look for fields in Edinburgh specifically advertising 6ft+ security or 'XL Bully compliant' certification.

Terrain Type

Edinburgh offers a mix of flat meadow style fields and woodland areas. Meadow fields are superior for recall training and ball games, while woodland areas provide excellent enrichment for scent work.

Solo vs. Group Use

Most private fields in Edinburgh allow exclusive booking, ensuring you are the only user during your slot—ideal for reactive dogs or bitches in season.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Fields in Edinburgh

Are these fields suitable for XL Bullies?

Policies vary by landowner. Please check the individual listing on our Edinburgh page. Many private fields now offer specific insurance-compliant slots for certain breeds, provided muzzling and handling rules are followed.

Do I need to book in advance?

Yes, the majority of secure dog fields in Edinburgh operate on a pre-booked appointment system to ensure exclusivity and safety. We recommend booking 2-3 days in advance for weekend slots.

Is there lighting for evening walks?

Several fields in the Edinburgh area offer solar or floodlighting for winter evenings. Look for the 'Lighting' amenity icon on our listings to confirm availability.
