55The site was just as described and Caitlin was very friendly and helpful. It was a nice area and my dog had a great time exploring. As noted in the description there is a barbed wire fence around the area, but a dog can pretty easily go under that so make sure your dog comes when calls or they can leave the area.

Description

Welcome to my dog heaven! We have trees, fields, creeks and more! We are just in the beginning phases of our project, so hang in there with us to see what we build. If the schedule is blocked, send me a message, we may just be doing work on the pasture and can schedule you in. There is old barbed wire and hot panel fencing around the whole property and we are working on making repairs. Our goal is to be 100% fully fenced. My big goals are to add a dock diving pool, agility field, FastCat events, herding and more! To start, we are building our SniffSpot!!!! I would love to share this field of about 10 acres with you and your dogs! I would strongly recommend a good recall since we are not fully fenced yet. About me, I work in vet-med and spend my free time training and competing with my malinois and kelpies.

We are in the process of building up our SniffSpot into something much more wonderful than it looks right now. That being said, we are working on getting signs, paths, trails, tables, shade, etc. but it will take some time. On your first visit, we will need to meet so I can let you know the boundaries, creek access, neighboring facilities, etc. The perimeter will be mowed/brush-hogged the best we can.

Paws and Smile Dog Park In Shawnee

Fully Fenced
3 acres

We moved back to the KC recently and are in the process of turning our new home into a doggy wonderland. Our team of three runs a full time pet care company including doggy daycare, boarding, and drop in visits for all sorts of animal species. As pet care lovers and trainers, we understand the importance of having a private, secure space to work or be with your dog for whatever reason. Our backyard is fully fenced, at least our 5 lb chihuahua, daycare dogs, and dozens of sniffspotters have yet to find a way out. The back has a few smaller enclosed spaces, feel free to use any and all. While we try our best to maintain our yard, sometimes the grass gets high or there are fallen branches. If grass length is a deal breaker, just ask! We'll let you know if it's gotten high or is freshly mowed. There is a detached garage with an old chicken coop with a hole in the door in the middle of the yard. We're aware the hole is there, we don't have immediate plans to fix it, and we don't mind if your dog wanders into it. The yard backs up to the highway. It can get a little loud, but it's pretty much white noise to us and our dogs. Aside from the highway, it's generally a quiet spot. There is a smaller fenced in area of the backyard we use for dog training. You can use that or the main yard. There's a large circle drive at the entrance of our property. You can park inside the fenced yard (open double drive gate) or just outside of it (enter through pedestrian gate) . Near the carport are poo bags, our business cards, grooming wipes, a grooming towel, dog water bowls, and usually some extra tennis balls. Let us know if anything is missing or if trash cans are full! There's a trash can by the carport, as well as a waste station halfway down the yard (trash can and additional poo bags) and another in our smaller fenced in area. We don't have lighting in the backyard, but we can turn on the lights under the carport, should you ever desire. Feel free to move around chairs or table or use the swing. Note, this is our home and we're constantly working on our property. There are piles of firewood, wheelbarrows, and the occasional rake left out leaning against the shed. PLEASE READ THE WELCOME MESSAGE THAT IS SENT TWO HOURS BEFORE YOUR ARRIVAL.
