55It was perfect! You couldn’t ask for a nicer private place to bring your dog. Mary was an accommodating and good host. Our 5 month old labradane had an injury from playing rough and tumble with older but smaller dogs and we needed a place to let him roam while he heals, but we’ll be back anyway! We asked for the kiddie pool and it was perfect until he gets used to Mary’s normal swimming pool. So clean!!!!! Good toys too!
55Thanks again for another great time at the pool!
55That was so much fun. I cannot wait to go back for next year. Just got to get my dog to want to get in the water first!!
55This spot was amazing! There was some bad weather earlier and she asked if we could come a few minutes later and even gave us a few extra minutes! The yard and pool are both very spacious and our two pups couldn't have been happier sniffing everything and running around. We will be coming back for sure!
55Another great day at the pool!
55Clean, securely fenced, stairs for dogs to safely exit pool. Perfect!
55I don't know who loved Nelis' Run & Swim Retreat more my dog or me. ❤️
55Another beautiful day here! Can’t thank this family enough for opening their yard and pool for my Stella! She love it here!!
55Great place to take your pup to swim! Super clean! The pool is beautiful! We had a blast!
55My favorite Sniffspot!!! The pool is amazing…and if your pup is not used to swimming, the yard is fenced and the perfect size the keep an eye on them from the pool. Plenty of sun and shade for pups to lay and relax. Lots of sniffs for them…we will be back!
