55Cali & Trey enjoyed running and exploring, stress free for me....love the easy access...
55Clean, easy to access, pups had a great time!
55Great place for the dog to run and burn off steam before being with family.
55It's always nice going out to The Patch... my boxer loves being able to play off leash! The fence is in very good condition so I never have to worry about him getting out, and the property is large enough for him to be able to run.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

The property is an active small hobby farm. The space has a hay rack, a pergola area and a black wooden structure ("spider") that the dogs can run around. There is potential for wildlife to be passing through the property at any time. The spot is approximately 100’ from the roadway so while not common, there is a possibility of bicyclists passing by. Please note: during winter months, the grounds may be muddy and obstacle equipment may vary throughout the year

Let your dog enjoy our private, double lot as much as my dogs enjoy it! The yard is fully fenced in (4 ft high chain link), lots of bushes, trees, and plants to sniff and find rabbits and squirrels in. A toddler lives inside, so there's a swing set, small sandbox, and slide for littles to use as well. There's an extra large picnic table and lawn chairs to enjoy too. Tennis balls, and other dog toys available too!
