Beautiful Clover Meadows 14 Acre Private Dog Park

Partially Fenced
14 acres

This is a beautiful timbered meadow Spot that's just a little ways out in the Iowa countryside but it's worth the drive. It's 13+ acres with easy access for the pet owners to drive into the area or walk along the trails. We have mowed trails throughout the clover meadows so it's easy walking. You'll enjoy the open clover meadows and huge oak trees for shaded areas. There is a secluded spot that's mowed and level with a picnic table,a fire pit and park benches, so you can have a nice private picnic down in the timbered meadow when you can book enough time to really enjoy the experience. There is a nice clean pond for your dogs to wade or swim in. With more shade around the pond. Your dogs will enjoy the dog and hiking trails around the pond and throughout the fenced meadows.

Fenced area For Dogs To Rent In Ames

Fully Fenced
0.01 acres

I have a 10x20 dog run that makes for good off leash play space for dogs under 50 pounds (bigger dogs could use this as a training area with distractions around!) The fenced area is on the west side of the house with a view of the street. Some amenities available upon request, I don’t keep everything outside. (Chairs, poo bags, water for the dog, etc) I can offer WiFi while you and your pup hang out!

Where can I find small dog parks in Badger?

Badger has 11 private small dog parks available through Sniffspot, offering appropriately-sized exercise in completely private settings. These locations range from compact spaces to properties spanning 14+ acres. Whether you need a space for your reactive dog, puppy socialization, senior dog gentle exercise, or high-energy play, Badger small dog parks provide safe, private environments.

How many small dog parks are in Badger?

You'll find diverse options: fully-fenced for escape artists, indoor climate-controlled for year-round use, swimming pools for hot days, agility courses for training, and more. Each Badger small dog park listing shows detailed photos, amenities, fencing specs, and reviews from local dog owners.

Are Badger small dog parks good for all dog types?

Yes! Badger small dog parks work for every dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer without large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space, and reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. The completely private bookings mean each dog gets the environment they need. Browse Badger's 11 options to find spaces matching your dog's specific temperament and needs.

Will I encounter other dogs at Badger small dog parks?

Not a chance. Badger small dog parks operate on a strict one-booking-at-a-time system, so the space is entirely yours during your reserved slot. Host dogs are kept away, and there's a mandatory 30-minute buffer between bookings—meaning you won't cross paths with the previous or next guest. For Badger owners with reactive dogs, puppies, or any dog needing privacy, this makes all the difference in providing safe, stress-free exercise.

Are Badger small dog parks safe for fearful or anxious dogs?

Yes! Badger small dog parks provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers, anxious dogs can explore a space specifically sized and designed for small breeds under 25-30 pounds without overwhelming encounters. Many Badger dog owners specifically choose small dog parks for fearful dogs who need gentle, stress-free exercise environments.

Can puppies use Badger small dog parks?

Absolutely! Badger small dog parks are excellent for puppy socialization because they're private and controlled. Puppies can explore a space specifically sized and designed for small breeds under 25-30 pounds, practice recall, and build confidence without the overwhelming chaos that can create fear or reactivity in young dogs. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting.

How do I choose the best small dog park in Badger?

Start by filtering Badger's 11 small dog parks for your specific needs: secure fencing for escape artists, "fewer dogs seen/heard" for reactive dogs, flat terrain for seniors, appropriate sizing for small dogs, or specific amenities for training. Look for "Top Spots" like Badger's Beautiful Clover Meadows 14 Acre Private Dog Park with excellent reviews.Read feedback from other Badger owners with similar dog types to find your perfect match.

What are Badger's small dog park requirements?

All dogs must have basic vaccinations or titers. Each Badger host may have additional rules on their listing. Most small dog parks welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit public dog parks. Adult supervision is required at all times.
