This spot is especially great for: * Reactive dogs * Dogs in recall training * High-energy dogs that need to run * Nervous or shy dogs * Multiple-dog households * Puppies learning off-leash skills The full 8-acre field is completely fenced, giving you room to safely practice recall, long-distance fetch, off-leash training, scent work, or simply let your dog run and be a dog.
