Description

Hello, and welcome to Iron Mine Dog Run. Our corner lot is in the quiet country setting of Londonderry Township/Middletown and offers little to no distractions for your pup. There is a picnic table, large front porch, porch swing, and patio table and chairs for resting. Our fenced in area is VERY bright when it gets dark. We have 4 floodlights on the side of the house, string lights & valance on the front porch, and a LED valance on the back porch. We also have LED motion sensing lights on the fence posts throughout the yard. There is a spigot with a hose and sprinkler for those hot days, or to fill your pups water dish! There are many shaded spots to get away from the sun around the yard as well. We love where we live because of the scenery, quietness, and low traffic volumes. Our 4 pups thrive in this environment and we know yours will too, we’re so happy to be able to share it with you! There are several toys for your pup(s) to play with as they choose! Kiddie pool available upon request at least 9 hours before visit. Smoking is permissible, let me know ahead of time so I can supply an ash tray! On site Wi-Fi available. Enjoy! (:

Hazards

There is one small mulch bed in the yard. There’s some uneven ground from dogs running/digging. Porch has no railing, please be careful. If not booked 8+ hours before the time of the booking (weekdays only), there may be a pile or two of dog scat from our dogs that morning. Weekends we clean up every time they go, so it’s always ready to go!

    2nd time being here. Our dogs loved running circles around the house.

  • Ashley S., Nov 25, 2023

    Very nice property just out of town. Our pup loved it and it was very convenient for us not being far away!

  • Julia M., Nov 18, 2023

    Pups came home tired. Yard is a good size and secure. Will use again!

  • William P., Nov 4, 2023

    Nice area will definitely be back again

  • Mandy R., Oct 28, 2023

    We missed our time because we weren’t sure where to park or if we were in the right place. I did not think to message the host until after our time to ask so that was on me

  • Vallie S., Oct 22, 2023

    love having water available, a place to discard poop bags, and lots of areas to sit in the shade!

    Host replied: Thank you for the review Vallie! I hope you and your pups truly enjoyed your time! Please come back anytime.

  • Shaylee P., Oct 22, 2023

    I have two pups that love to run around a fenced in yard. They LOVED it. We even took some fall pictures. It’s such a nice yard and place to hangout with your pups! We will definitely come back again!

    Host replied: Shaylee, thank you for visiting, and I am so glad your babies enjoyed our yard. Please come back anytime! Ps… They are gorgeous! 😍

  • Jim C., Aug 24, 2023

    First time using a Sniff Spot, Quentin was excellent to deal with. Thank you for providing a clean safe environment for our fur babies to sniff around!

    Host replied: Thank you for being our first guest, Jim! I’m so happy you and your pups enjoyed your visit, hope to see you back! 😄

*UPDATE: I’ve enjoyed hosting all the dogs and most of the owners. But there is always someone who breaks rules and ruins it for everyone. Therefore, You MUST have an account and book through it to be here! No extra guests & their dogs are permitted to visit without an account. All vaccines must be up to date AND ON FILE with SniffSpot. NO FRIENDS WITH DOGS ALLOWED UNLESS THEY BOOK THROUGH THEIR OWN ACCOUNT! No exceptions! This is a liability & safety issue for all involved! If you show up with more dogs and people than on your reservation you will be asked to leave! Tell your friends to setup an account and submit ALL CURRENT VACCINE RECORDS TO SNIFFSPOT! Message me for pricing. **You must clean up after your dog!! I cannot scour 2 acres in between visits to ensure nothing was left behind. This property is 6.5 acres with a 2 acre fenced in yard. 5 minutes off Pennsylvania turnpike and interstate 83. Quiet setting back off a dead end road. A 4 acre meadow is in back if you’d like to use it but it is outside the fence. Nothing but woods beyond that field. Toys & water if I’m home. Or join our membership for even more peRks!You are welcome to sit by the fire ring or on the shaded swing while your pups run. Please keep dogs off the porches. My dogs see them and go crazy. I sometimes have guests with dogs who compete in agility trials. I will ensure their dogs are inside during your visit. A hose for water is out back by the porch. Inquire about training sessions, essential oils benefits for dogs & humans & use of agility equipment. Do not book extras before messaging and clearing with me!

SAVE! Introductory price is 30% off through Oct. 31st! Book it and try it! This is an extension of Tina’s Dog House SniffSpot, but for dogs who can play off leash in an open field & woods without full fencing. Or if you just want to walk your dog on leash. Approximately 4 acres including woods, the field borders only 2 neighbors with acreage & no dogs. There is no road or traffic. The property sits back off of a dead end road. You will access the field from the right side of the upper driveway before you get to the gate. Park in the grass and walk back over the hill behind the small garage. All of that area is mine too, but it’s also closest to neighbors. You’ll have more privacy and your pup will have less distractions if you go down back. You will be permitted to use the field beyond the fenced yard only, because there may be other SniffSpot customers paying for the fenced yard at the same time. If you have concerns about another dog being inside the fence, feel free to message me first and if it’s not booked, I can block the calendar for the time you want to use the field so no other dogs or people are here inside the yard. I do also have a small dog friendly BnB and on some days there may be other dogs here. I ask guests to keep their dogs inside during your visit. In spring, summer, & fall I will have a hose run down to the fence and water bowls for the dogs. I can provide some seating in the shade for you as well.
