Puppers Pollinator Path and Prairie Sanctuary with Dig Zone in Elkhart

We have a Pollinator Path and Prairie Sanctuary with Sensory Fun including a Dig Zone for your puppers. We have a fenced in Backyard for you and your puppers enjoyment. The backyard is around 6900 square feet of off leash fun. We have additional attractions coming as the summer progresses. The Pollinator Path is close to .5 miles in 2 acres. It is a mowed path and your dogs are welcome to be on long lead throughout the area. There is wildlife and infrequently a domesticated animal neighbor that might try to join you. Safety is key. I will have long leashes available to borrow! As in any prairie and pollinator area, there may be thorns, raspberries and poison ivy off the path. In the backyard there is plenty of shaded seating on the patio so you can relax while zoomies, sniffs and yayas are being fulfilled. Pookie and Belvedere (as well as their humans) may be in the house when your dogs are here. But, they will keep all their 4-legged fun inside so your dog (or dogs) can enjoy the space.

🐾 Fun Backyard Hangout with Cozy Seating & Amenities Welcome to our little slice of dog paradise! Our backyard is a relaxed, mixed vibe space — part sunny open run, part shady chill zone — perfect for dogs who love to explore, sniff, and just be a dog. About the Space Our yard is large, fully fenced and ready for pups of all sizes, from tiny terriers to big goofballs. We want you to feel at home, so kick back on our spacious patio while your dog does their thing — it's a great spot to relax, scroll your phone, or just enjoy watching your pup have the time of their life. A Note on the Fence We believe in full transparency: our fence is 4 feet tall. Most dogs do just fine, but if your pup is an experienced escape artist or a determined jumper, this may not be the right fit. When in doubt, feel free to message us! Amenities We can set out a puppy pool, porta-potty (for kids), and dog toys. Just let us know. We can't wait to host you and your furry family member. See you soon! 🐶
