Jennifer's 8 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Crown Point

Unfenced
8 acres

Hi, I’m Jennifer! I’m a dog lover and outdoor enthusiast offering my 8-acre backyard as a wide-open space for dogs to run, sniff, and explore nature at their own pace. I know how valuable it is for pups to have space to roam freely, and I’m excited to share this peaceful property with fellow pet owners. The land is open and scenic, surrounded by trees and natural beauty—perfect for adventurous dogs who love to stretch their legs. Please note that the property is not fenced, so it’s best suited for dogs with good recall or those who stay close to their owners. Whether you're looking for a quiet place to train, a scenic spot for fetch, or a relaxing break from crowded parks, my backyard is here for you and your pup to enjoy. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to welcome you and your furry friend!

Lolas Private Dog Park In Crown Point

Fully Fenced

Half acre fenced in with gazebo chairs table. Filled kiddie pool on request.. it’s pretty private and serene. There is a playground, sandbox, swing in the tree and plenty of toys. Porch swing is under deck water bowls are by the hose. Feel free to fill them up if they are empty. We usually have everything ready. We made this spot in honor of Lola, a 2 year old American bulldog. She was so aggressive we loved her and tried everything, we failed. This is a safe spot!! We just added an extra dog bath feature. Check it out!
