Polgoda Dogs Exercise Field

Polgoda Dogs Exercise Field is a secure, privately booked dog field at Polgoda Cottage in Zelah, near Truro and Goonhavern. The field covers approximately one acre and is enclosed by 2-metre galvanised wire fencing that runs right down to ground level with 50mm gaps, making it well suited to off-lead running, puppy recall training and dogs with anxiety or temperament issues.

Facilities include drinking water, a small paddling pool, a hose for washing down and a poo bin, along with a shelter with seating and a picnic bench further into the field. Agility weaving poles, a tunnel and sensory planting are provided, and a large open-topped crate is available if one dog needs time out. Polgoda Dogs also runs a dog grooming service on the same site.

Sessions are booked online in advance, and the standard price covers up to four dogs, with additional dogs charged extra. Ample parking sits outside the secure area, with lighting in the car park in the evening, and the car park is shared with grooming customers. Kites are not allowed because of overhead cables, whistles are also banned, and the rural field has some uneven ground.
