Ruff-Woof Walks is a large outdoor space and contains areas of uneven ground or potential rabbit and/or badger holes which could be concealed under long grass or other vegetation. The area may have overhanging branches from trees which may fall or have fallen. A river borders one side of Ruff-Woof Walks which is not fenced off and there are other potential hazards consistent with open countryside such as the potential for wild vegetation eg fungi, acorns, wild plants and flowers which could be harmful to dogs if consumed. There may be deer, pheasants or other wildlife occasionally in Ruff-Woof Walks.
Tuttington Dog Park advises owners to walk their dogs on leads however as the area of over 10 acres is not available or accessible for public use, owners can choose to let their dogs off the lead at their own risk.

Users must allow themselves time to exit the dog field a minimum of 5 mins before the end of their time slot to ensure no mingling of dogs. Users must exit Ruff-Woof Walks in good time to allow this to guard against anyone being in that area unseen by another user accessing the dog field. Users must monitor the time they are in Ruff-Woof Walks and ensure they respect other users and are completely out of the park before others need to enter.
