Fully fenced and Shady 1 acre Oasis in South Austin
Come check out our backyard — a spacious, peaceful spot that’s perfect for your furry companion! 🐾 We have over an acre of lush green grass and plenty of shady trees, giving dogs lots of room to run, decompress, and explore at their own pace. The land is fully fenced with a privacy-style fence, offering visual separation and a sense of security that many reactive or easily overstimulated dogs benefit from. While there are neighbors nearby, there is no sidewalk running directly along the fence, and foot traffic is minimal. For visitors, we provide chairs for humans, and for dogs we offer kiddie pools, hoses, and sprinklers for extra fun and cooling off on warm days. Bug spray is available for your use. **grass burs are popular along left side of barn (if looking from house) Advise checking shoes and fur before leaving

Fully Fenced Yard For Big or Small Dogs in Austin
I would love to share my big, beautiful backyard with other dogs and the people who love them! I have a new fence that is completely secure -- my two curious chihuahua mixes are capable of finding any holes or openings no matter how small, so rest assured that your dogs will stay safe inside once the gate is closed. The fence is 6 feet high, so your dogs won't be able to see into neighbors' yards or the road, although they may get glimpses of my dogs through the sliding glass doors into my home. There are LOTS of smells to sniff, places to explore, and trees to pee on. I have automatic solar-powered string lights throughout the backyard, so if you want to come by after dark, your visit will still be completely illuminated. While your dogs zoom and play, feel free to relax in the hammock or get some work done at the picnic table. This backyard is the perfect place to spend an afternoon!
