Working farm and private duck lake on Sauvie Island, perfect spot to work off leash, practice recall, minimum distractions. Ideal for two or more dogs who like rowdy play, plenty of space to disengage and reengage. Livestock may be in adjacent pastures.

Cleanliness

98% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Cocklebur seeds have shown up in the grass by the wetland. Not advised for long hair dogs. This is a farm, so livestock and livestock “byproducts” are inevitable. Also, farms in winter can be wet and muddy. As well, the island is a migratory bird wildlife refuge, so “byproducts” from sand hill cranes, herons, geese, ducks, etc are also inevitable. Additionally, reactive and working dogs may not be able to share fence line with livestock, and unless you request otherwise, livestock may be adjacent. Please note, this is a working farm community as well as wildlife refuge. There is a muddy wetland, there may be farm equipment, heavy trucks on rural highway, neighbors dogs, livestock, deer and other wildlife- evaluate your dog’s bandwidth to create the best experience.
