45Fun woodsy area with cleared trails as well as more dense wooded off path areas to explore.
45Great for dogs who have off leash training! Owner was nice and accommodating of my reactive dog. Plenty of space for the dogs to run and play! My pups really enjoyed it.

“This is a quiet area, and the 20 acres certainly allows a buffer to the noise. We don't hear a lot of dogs or people up here. There are cars that go up and down the main gravel road, but they are very aware of dogs running around.”

Description

Fun little off the beaten path place to run amok. There are tons of little trails off the main logging road that goes around the property. Bring your person with you if you can. If you aren’t all that good at recall, there’s a fun pasture you can chase your friends in. Lots of space to get all that energy out. Just leave your attitude in the car. We just like to have fun here. Thanks. Gary.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Since we do have an open barn, we do ask that you do your best to keep the curious little furballs from sniffing around inside the barn.

Additional rules

Rules for the farm: We have a great space to run amok in, and it's mostly fenced in, but we took down all the barbed wire that was up here when we got here. We usually like to hang out with our new friends, but we understand if there are some personality differences, so let us know. After I meet the person, y'all are free to run amok. We just ask that you do your best to keep an eye on your pup(s). There's a great little trail that goes around the back of the property that I encourage everyone to check out, too! We look forward to meeting you!

Hey there! We're Todd and Gary. Gary is the dog. We live on 20 acres up near Wilkesboro, NC. It's just the two of us, so we like to invite friends (escpecially the dog sort) to enjoy the space with us. I'm a craftsman and Gary is a funny Blue Heeler mix. We're both super friendly.

Watauga Humane Society Fenced Space - Play for a Good Cause!

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

Not every dog loves the dog park — and that’s okay! If Arko Dog Park isn’t the right fit, try a private play session in the WHS Sniffspot area. Nestled near our trails, this wide-open space is perfect for dogs who prefer room to run, sniff, and explore on their own. With gratitude to Mountain Fence and Deck for enclosing the space, this area was once the yard for our Diamond Dog program, where dogs practiced their manners while living in a home-like setting on campus. Even better, your dog’s play helps support the lifesaving mission of Watauga Humane Society.

Our dogs want to share their yard with yours! This is a long fenced yard great for running, playing, frisbee, or just sitting in the sun. Used by our dogs, but they will be put away or at daycare when yours are here. Homeowner will be present when yard is in use, but the yard space will be all yours.

Slys Peace Trail

Partially Fenced
10 acres

Located in the foothills, the Slys Peace trail was created for dog stimulation. The trail starts at the lower end of the pasture and follows the creek meandering through a rhododendron forest. Situated at the base of 100 acres of wooded ridge land, the hike offers a wilderness experience customized to your comfort zone. There are multiple trails to accommodate your level of exercise. The full experience will require crossing the creek multiple times and is recommended for those with hiking experience. Trails are easy to follow with multiple exits that lead out to the pasture. This is dog heaven. Let your dog be a dog. To locate the gate entrance watch for the Giant metal horse. His nose points the way. Follow the fenceline a few hundred feet where you will find the gate just before the power line easement. There is now a large Sniff Spot sign securely attached.
