55Lovely spot! As others have mentioned - there are horses and with horses come horse poo - a delicacy for some dogs. Mine certainly enjoyed snacking and rolling in it! They enjoyed their baths after much less, but well worth the effort for the wonderful time they had frolicking! My only complaint is that in some spots the fence is more of a suggestion than a true barrier, so I will leave a long line on my more escape probe pooches. Overall though - we had a fantastic time and they wore themselves out running up and down the hills and trails.
55This is a great spot with some open play areas and some short trails as well as two horses (who were secured in the stable). The dogs had a blast here, running around smelling everything and going on the trails. They were a bit scared of the horses so they didn’t go near them much. There is horse poop around but my dogs weren’t very interested in it thankfully. I recommend wearing rain boots or muck boots especially if it’s been raining. Barbara was very nice, she greeted us when we arrived. I highly recommend checking out Barbara’s spot :)
45Nice spot. The hiking trails were great. However I had to leash my young dog while walking through the pastures. My pup was distracted by the horse manure. Free food, much to my dismay.
55Wilson and I enjoyed this property very much. We will be back!!
55Great first visit to this beautiful property! Barbara was very welcoming and our dogs had a great time running the trails. We’ll be back!
55We really enjoyed our visit to Lybar. The dogs ran through the woods on the side of the hill as we walked through the trails. They got to take a peek at the horses in the stalls. Thank you Barbara so much for making your space available to us!
55Very cool spot! It is spacious and offers open fields and trails, I can't wait to visit again.
55We had a wonderful time playing in the fields and on the trails! The spot was a great mix of forest shade and fields - our pup Albert was worn out after our visit!
55What an extraordinary wonderland with horses and a network of trails! Barbara welcomed us warmly upon arrival and our dog proceeded to have a highly enjoyable exploratory adventure.
55Big field with secure fences. My dog had a blast running around and loved meeting the two horses in the barn!

    Host replied: Hi, Cecelia - glad your pooches had a good time! The “fences” you referred to are not the boundary fences, just lines we sometimes use in pasture rotation for the horses. Past them, along the tree line, are the “real” fences, which are secure.

Welcome to Connie's Dogtopia! Nestled in Johnson City, TN on a private lot with a 4 ft. fenced in area surrounded by mature trees, you and your dog(s) will feel like you're in the country but actually within the city. Conveniently located approximately: 1.5 miles from the Johnson City Medical Center 2.2 miles from the Mountain Home VA Hospital 2.3 miles from ETSU 3.1 miles from downtown Johnson City Come relax, unwind, and listen to the birds chirping in my tranquil and peaceful setting while your pup(s) explore all the scents. If your pup is playful, there are plenty amenities and lots of toys to choose from. If your pup isn't and just wants to chill, there is a coolaroo dog bed to rest on. As a pup parent myself, I can appreciate the need to just chill and take in the beauty of nature while my pups burn off some energy from being cooped up in the house all day :) Hope you enjoy your time at Connie's Dogtopia as much as Finley, Fergus, Bocephus, and Fallon (on occasion) and I do! Here's to releasing the zoomies!! UPDATE 02.04.2024: every visit the pups have unlimited access to the wading pool(s), the Bazinga ball pit, Digger's Depot sandbox, the basic agility equipment and agility tunnel. And don't forget all of the toys to choose from in the brown deck box! 🙂 For the hoomans, there are two sitting area with tables and umbrellas. Next to the deckbox of toys, is a small table with beverages hot (tea, apple cider, cocoa) and cold (bottled water) to enjoy. Next to the gravel parking, there is a green bench with complimentary water sprayer, shampoo, bath wipes, paw cleaner, and towels to clean your pups off before heading home. Connie
