Bosch running the poles

A refreshing alternative to conventional doggie daycare and dog training
— focused on structure, small groups, and positive methods that get real results.

Two ways to make your dog’s day

Pick what fits – or do both.

Doggie Day School

Not a free-roam yard. Your dog gets structured play in groups of 5 or less — sorted by play style and temperament — plus walks, training games, impulse control work, and nap time. They go home tired, happy, and a little better behaved.

  • Small groups of 5 or less
  • Outdoor enclosures, indoor space
  • Half day and full day options

Agility Training

Tunnels, hurdles, weave poles — pure joy for your dog and the best bond you’ll ever build with them. Beginner through trial-ready, with private lessons for competing teams. Taught by Karen Hough, who’s been running NADAC for nearly 20 years.

  • Beginner, Continuing, and Private
  • Positive reinforcement only
  • Just about any dog can play

Karen with Linc, the newest member of her pack.

A trusted name in the Roanoke Valley for over 20 years.

Karen Hough opened Field of Dreams to create the kind of place she’d want for her own dogs — structured, positive, and run by people who actually love what they do.

She’s been competing in NADAC agility for nearly two decades — most recently taking home a national championship with her dog Bosch — and brings the same patient, positive approach to every dog who walks through the door.
