There could potentially be a neighbor cat, but I assume they will know you're there before you know they're there, and will skedaddle!

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Lots of various plants that should not be ingested. I've never had a dog that ate anything back there, and I've had five dogs. I have been keeping an eye out for dog-dangerous foxtail grass. It was new to the neighborhood summer of '24 and I've been pulling it when I see it both on my property and across the road, to keep it from invading my property. There is a photo for your reference. You shouldn't see any because I am very vigilant in monitoring, but IF you do, please alert me. This spot has a creek with steep slopes, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water
