HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

No other dogs will have access to the side yard private park area. A fence also blocks off the private backyard which is not assessable to humans and their dogs. Making money off of this endeavor is something that I don’t care anything about. A host is not going to make any significant money per month allowing a private dog play area. My motivation is providing this memorial private dog play area as my way of giving back to the community.

This is a very safe curb appealing neighborhood, although you will be able to see people walk by, most of the time walking their dogs, because the wood fence which encloses my side yard scalops down to 4 feet in the middle between the wood posts.

Description

Buddy’s private dog park was named after our standard poodle Buddy, who absolutely loved playing in that area. The dog park itself was created to give those that don’t have a yard of their own, the option to play with their dogs(s) safely off leash, or for those that do have their own yard, but just want a change of scenery for private off leash play with their dog(s) A nice shady big corner lot that wraps around the back of the white utility shed next to the house. Entry gate off the top of the driveway, to the left. It A completely wood and cyclone fenced area. Want to play in a safe area with your dog(s) at night? Flood lights will make the play area nice & bright. Off leash, privacy, play time for you, you/family, and of course, your beloved dog(s) For warm or hot sunny days, the Red Maple tree in the play area will provide you with instant shade, and it is the perfect spot for provided chair(s) where you can throw optional provided numerous rubber ball toys to your dog(s) to retrieve. A canine, human experience, that will make you and your dog(s) want to return for more. Water hose & stainless steel drink dish available upon request. $2 discount per dog for first time visitors All billing & discounted rates are handled through Sniffspot.com Sincerely, Scott C Westin

I have had many of my own beloved dogs who loved to play in my fenced side yard for years, it would be a pleasure to help an owner & their dog(s) to be able to play in a safe yard, if they don’t have one of their own or just want a change of scenery & access to agility equipment that they may not have.

**Formerly Pink Pitbull Club** We used to bring our dogs here to Pink Pitbull Club, and when the opportunity to buy came along we jumped on it. We have one reactive girl who has just loved having a huge yard to play and not worry about other people and dogs, I'm sure your pups will love it as well! The front gate is remotely controlled to let guests in, and a button on the inside of the gate for whenever you need to leave. There is a doorbell camera set up for when you arrive, just ring the bell, I'll say hello and let you in :). There's an additional doorbell camera right on the inside of the gate in case you need anything during your visit. I'm happy to chat on the app for any folks that are Deaf/HOH to get in or need help. The yard is 5ft fence with a privacy screen. There are trees and shrubs for your pups to sniff and explore, as well as a wide open lawn perfect for fetch. There are parkour options and a ball pit in the back of the yard and a toy box up near the gate. For summer, we've got some water options to keep your pups cool - a kiddie pool and splash pad! Towels provided to dry off before you leave.

Quiet street in pleasant neighborhood just off 694 and Silver Lake Road. Fully fenced and easy access from the street. Relax near the "dog" pool while your dog explores the yard for new and interesting smells. Mostly open yard with a path through a woodsy pollinator area in back. Kiddie pool and hose available in summer, plus a tiny inground pond for cooling off. What the yard lacks in a aesthetics it makes up for in smells. Rabbits live in the brush pile beyond the tall grass. Lots of bones everywhere 🦴🦴, free for the taking. Some well loved toys and balls available. Garden with cherry tomatoes to pick when available.
