Description

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.

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

No hazards in the fenced in area. Normal wear and tear for dog zoomies. As in any prairie and pollinator area, there are potential hazards of thorns, raspberries and poison ivy off the mowed path.

Fully fenced in half acre yard. 4ft chain link fence. Plenty of excellent sniffing available as we have our own pups and regularly foster for a local rescue! We intend to add fun things to our spot throughout the summer as well. Quite neighbors. Only 2 small dogs on the south side of our yard that are rarely out, but are little oldies that shouldn'tbother you. Enjoy our patio to watch your dog(s) play! We will also have a vegetable garden & cut flower garden throughout the year with hopefully extras to share :)
