55Very spacious and well thought out sniffspot. Had everything we needed and then some!
55This private dog park was exactly what my pups needed. They had so much fun running around in an open space. We stopped going to public dog parks for many years now because it can be a hit or miss with my dogs not liking certain dogs. The hosts had everything we needed for our dogs. Toys, water, agility course and snacks/beverages for the humans that they can buy. Very clean space and bathroom provided as well. They recently added a tiny room that has a cozy little setup with a couch to relax in. We will definitely be coming back since our dogs had so much fun. Also, one of our dogs found the dog treats the hosts left behind in a bucket with a thoughtful card. These little small details adds to a wonderful experience. Jeff was a pleasure to meet and super friendly.
55Another beautiful day at this dog park. I just love the country side setting and my pups get worn out playing and exploring!!
55Super setup, for dogs and for humans! Well maintained property. Gracious host. They left a nice note with dog cookies, which our dog found before we did. :) My Labs enjoyed sniffing for a while, then playing games on the agility equipment. We'll be back!
55This is a beautifully maintained and situated property. Quiet and truly all by yourselves. The fence is solid with no gaps. Restrooms for the humans and PLENTY of toys and obstacles for your doggo. Jeff greeted us when we first arrived as we were 1st time visitors. He could not have been more gracious. Our pup tuckered out after 40 minutes of running around. And we are fortunate to have this place so close to home! Bring your pup here, kick your feet up and warm your heart watching them play.
55If I could give 10 stars ⭐️ I would! Jeff and Paula really have a fantastic set up and really make you feel special with a personalized note! Our dog Cruz was like a kid at the arcade- so much to do and sniff! He was in heaven! We are most definitely coming back!
55This place is just a wonderful spot to go to never disappoints definitely coming back as soon as I can
55Beautifully maintained property, full of amenities and everything you need. The hosts are so nice and went above and beyond as well!
55Definitely a hidden gem! such a nice facility lots of amenities! Will definitely be coming back!
55This spot is great! Very cute and clean! Our dogs loved all the different activities available, especially the water. The host is very nice.

we have dogs between the goats and the chickens, and would make every attempt to bring them in during your session … the dogs are located across the road from the dog park approximately 60 feet. definitely only an audible issue if they decide to bark. no chance would interact with your dogs. They are very well fenced behind the goats off of the 20 wide foot road opposite the dog park.

we have alpacas, goats, a horse and chickens…. The chickens are over 100 feet away and are contained in a coop in a fenced area slightly closer, but also separately, fenced and separated by a road are the goats… several fences between the dog park and the chickens The alpacas are in an adjacent pasture. they typically will stay to the far side of the pasture when dogs are in the park and they typically make no loud noises. Double spaced Fencing between dog park and alpacas… they do not share a fence. Horse is typically in a separate pasture, paddock by the barn, and across the road. we have dogs between the goats and the chickens, and would make every attempt to bring them in during a session

it’s an 11 acre ranch. So sometimes there are orchard service., Landscape service or other various service on the property, but not directly in or around the dog park. The residence in the shop are each 100 to 200 feet away from the dog park in opposite directions.

Private entry

Yes (Always)

so there is a large gate for access into the dog park. you would just need to park open the gate, lead your dog in and close the gate behind you ( for your convenience we have a leash post with large rubber coated hooks, so that if you have more than one dog, you can bring one in and hang his/her leash on the post while you grab the others ) Perhaps the gate will already be open upon your arrival and you just enter and close the gate behind you and enjoy your uninterrupted visit to our ranch.

Description

A truly beautiful spot! just the right size to keep an eye on your dogs while they run themselves tired. It was a half acre sandy soil riding arena now converted. We’ve planted 3 weeping willow trees and they will grow quickly to provide even more shade to the grassy area. But rest assured, there is tons of shade and trees all about the doggie park and the rest of the property and along with all the trees comes the birds, so constant singing and tweeting…. It’s quite serene. 2/3 (the center of the park) is irrigated grass… we have a large scratching post and sprinklers And or a pool available for hot days. See extras some days you might luck out because if someone else pays to fill the pool, we won’t immediately drain it for a couple days unless someone else purchases the freshwater. So you may have a slightly used pool to use at no charge.. And if you do pay the $11 to fill it fresh.. you feel good that maybe someone else and there doggies will get to enjoy it beyond your use. —- A paw it forward gesture We have a dig site now, featuring both fresh sand and separately a clean dirt mound. We find half of the dogs prefer the sand and the other half prefer the fresh dirt mound. We also have a dry rock River bed featuring a few scarlet sage plants (non toxic aspca) and many of the dogs like to sniff around there and walk over the smooth rocks. We use the perimeter of the park like a walking track to get in our steps, you are welcome to do the same. There are several seating options, very comfortable chairs spaced in a couple areas or even a couple pool style recliners. We have some things that you may want or need to use from time to time such as insect repellent, sunscreen spray, first aid kit, etc There are 2 indestructible tables in the area if you need a place to set your coffee or would like to get some work done We have some Wi-Fi service available via Starlink and seem to maintain speeds around 15-25mbps, which is not so bad for our rural setting. We are actually just a very short distance from Ripon, Manteca and Tracy (off Kasson Rd and Airport) about 7 or 8 minutes into the country from the Bass Pro Shop in Manteca. only about 20 minutes from Modesto via Ripon and Ripon Road / Jack Tone We will continuously improve the park and maintain and upgrade as use allows. *** Our most recent additions include a restroom within the park perimeter and we now offer self-service snacks and drinks via Venmo, PayPal or Cash. 100% of the snack purchase Donations go directly to the PAW it Forward Sanctuary, NON Profit 501c3 Rescue. Thank You for your support! * New Addition October ‘24 Winter is coming, so we added a space where our Spotters and their pups can escape the storm if needed during the booking (see pics) T H E D O G H O U S E 🐾 💦rain room & book nook📚 Open Now Enjoy 🙂

Hazards

we dig dogs. And dogs dig. Surfaces may be uneven so please watch your step. :)

Extras

8’ Dog Pool- fill 250/300 gal$11

due to the fact that everyone would prefer freshwater and a fairly clean pool bottom. It takes a bit to fill, clean and drain a pool this big, So we decided to charge a small amount to fill the pool half full. 300 gallons +/- safe for small dogs too. ** Pool Visits req min 2hr notice Please.

Shaded Space to BBQ, picnic or pancake Brunch area with Lg picnic table and Lg ice chest. Bring your own food, Pizza, bucket of chicken etc … OK to bring an electric griddle for a pancake breakfast or Music (has power) We will have the area clean and ready for you with minimum 24 hrs notice. *this area is not secure for the dogs. It is an adjacent place while your dogs enjoy the park just a few feet away on the other side of gate. (10 person 3 hr max) See Pics *Price NOT per hr, is total $44)

Sprinkler$5

you can control when to turn on and off, Fountain style Sprinkler Head (pic in listing) It sprays from elevated position creating a nice cool mist/rain effect.
