Scent detection workshop at Unicorn Dog and Horse Playground

We, at Unicorn Horse and Dog Playground firmly believe in creating educational opportunities to improve animal welfare and ensure the relationship between you and furry companion – horse or dog – are the best they can be. And as with all relationships this starts with good communication! Expecting how dog/horse to understand “human” is a big ask – its up to us to be able to learn their body language and thought processes to ensure the best understanding and outcomes. Plus – its fun! Doing different activities with your dog/horse shouldn’t be stressful (for either of you!) – we want you to be fully enjoying the time you spend with each other – building teamwork and overcoming challenges – great for everyones mental health! Never stop learning!

We have a range of events/training days/clinics happening here at the Playground. You are welcome to join in (as numbers allow – all need to be pre booked as they tend to fill fast!)

Coming soon

We are looking at putting together a market – Paws and Hooves Saturday Market – held on the last Saturday of the month. We want this to be a fabulous opportunity for Pet care professionals to showcase what they do – and for the public to be able to find and chat to them! We are looking for Pet Food and Treats, Trainers, Groomers, Dog Walkers, Pet Boarding, Saddleries/tack, therapists and anyone else who supplies goods or services to Dogs and Horses!

We are also planning on offering free spaces to NFP organisations and Clubs – like dog rescues/foster carers – and give them a chance to let us know more about what they do and raise funds – local Pony clubs (as an example) would be able to run a car boot sale of horse gear – to raise funds for their organisation. I’m pretty excited about this one! Watch this space – and please contact us if you would like to be involved!
