55Will always give credit where it’s due, this is a really great spot. Just book it seriously my fur babies really love it and I know I’m going to be a frequent booker!
55My pack enjoyed Gerald’s big yard. Had some great photo ops and my heeled gsd even got tuckered out. The host had great communication and made our visit easy. We will be back. :) ( i will post a photo of the entrance, this is a lot/property so don’t look for a house ! It’s a wooden entrance and side door you will park on the front pavement and let yourself through the door with the handle. :)
55Just book this spot!!
55It’s spacious and shaded which was a bonus! Both my dogs really enjoyed their time!
55Very spacious and secure. My dog enjoyed herself very much.
55It was a fun space to explore!
55The place is nice and quiet
55We loved the spot! Lots of room for my pup to run and explore. Thanks so much for letting us hang out!
55Nice wide opened space for running, with corners and areas of interest for sniffing and exploring! Very clean and responsive host. We’ll be back for sure.
55Always a great experience

Description

Fully fenced vacant residential lot near South Post Oak and Willowbend. We love to take our dogs here to stretch out and play and are happy to extend that freedom to you! Just bring your own water and toys. Please clean up after your pet. One fence is a chain link about 4 foot tall so not ideal if your dog is a jumper! Enjoy the bench in the shade to chill and relax while your pups have a blast! Please share pics to our profile if you leave a review of your dog having a good time after your visit! Have fun! Show your Sniff Spot Reservation to receive 10% off your order at le' French Press Coffee and Pastry truck to enjoy during your visit at our spot! https://maps.app.goo.gl/CAjiv2PCBdQbzXA59 https://www.instagram.com/lefrenchpresshtx?igsh=MXVxbG1uZHhzOHp2aw==
