The Dog Club

A Different Standard of Dog Care

Our Philosophy

11 Acres isn’t built like a typical dog daycare.

Everything is designed around what dogs actually need to develop into calm, confident, well-balanced companions.

That means learning how to be around other dogs, developing impulse control, building confidence, and understanding how to switch on and have fun, but also switch off and be calm.

How the dog club works

Dogs join 11 Acres The Dog Club through a membership, attending a minimum of one consistent day per week.

This consistency is central to everything we do.

Groups are carefully managed, with a maximum of 10 dogs per day.

Strict entry requirements are in place, which allows us to maintain a quiet, managed environment that works for every dog within it.

Your dog will see the same dogs each week, building familiarity, trust, and real social understanding.

A Typical Day

Each day is structured, but natural.

Dogs are collected from home and returned at the end of the day in our custom designed, professionally crated dog van.

Each day includes:

Structured group work and individual training — setting standards and building the foundations that allow dogs to operate calmly within a group.

Our secure play area with custom designed obstacles — where dogs can interact, play, and learn appropriate behaviour around other likeminded, social pups.

Wider adventures across 11 acres of private land — giving dogs the freedom to explore, move, and engage their natural instincts in a safe and secure way.

Rest and reset in The Dog Club — a purpose built timber building, providing comfort and calm throughout the day, with everything from a log burner to raised soft beds.

Everything is designed to give dogs the right balance of physical activity, mental stimulation, and rest.

WHere do we collect from?

The 11 Acres Dog Club collection service covers Malpas, Threapwood, Worthenbury and some of the surrounding villages.

If you're unsure whether your dog can be collected by us, just ask! 

It's a one of a kind place

"If Nutmeg could score this herself it’d be 20/10! The joy 11 Acres brings to her is beyond anything I’ve ever known. She absolutely loves Gavin. I just wish I had more dogs who I could send to him! It’s a one of kind place and his vision is masterful."

I've never seen my dogs so happy

“Such a fantastic doggie daycare. Gavin is a true dog whisperer and I’ve never seen my dogs so happy as the days daycare comes around. This is definitely daycare with a difference!”

Such capable and knowledgeable hands

“I honestly cannot recommend 11 Acres Doggy Daycare highly enough. It’s unlike any doggy daycare I’ve ever come across. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing my dog has his special day each week in such capable and knowledgeable hands, and he absolutely loves going. Truly a one of a kind place and I feel extremely lucky that my dog is part of 11 Acres!”

Gavin has made Boris a lovely dog

“My lab Boris has been going to 11 Acres for over two and a half years. He absolutely adores Gavin and I’m sure he’d like to live at 11 Acres. It is a wonderful place. A doggie paradise. The photographs posted tell the story! Gavin has made Boris a lovely dog ~ sociable with other dogs and obedient. I strongly recommend. 10/10!”
