25This is not a reactive-dog or in-training friendly sniffspot. There are two large, untrained reactive dogs on the other side of the chicken-wire fencing which the host declined to note on the ad. These dogs spent most of the hour we were there eager to gence fight with my dogs.. they didn't settle down until about 10 minutes before we were leaving. My dogs are service dogs in training and I was able to manage them but it was not a pleasant experience and we didn't get to enjoy any of our planned program as a result. If your dog struggles with reactivity or dog-aggression, or if you're simply looking for a quiet spot where you can enjoy some quality time with your pup building your relationship, this is not a good fit. If you're in advanced obedience with exceptional offleash skills, and your dog is totally neutral to other highly-aroused dogs (you do a lot of focus work outside of dog parks) this could be a good spot but it's not large enough to get any distance from the distraction (maybe 30 ft away) of the neighbor dogs trying to fence fight with yours - something to keep in mind.
55The gate was left unlocked and we just pushed the fence open to get in.
55Chance had a lot of fun. The yard was large enough for him to run at full speed and had great spots to explore. Chance says the sticks were plentiful and sturdy haha. Derek’s yard is one of the largest and closest sniff spots to downtown Raleigh which is great if you can’t drive very far. We will be back!

Rock Quarry Farm - 1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Raleigh

Welcome to the Rock Quarry Rd. - Private Dog Park in Raleigh! We have 1 acre fully fenced in with lots of room and enrichment opportunities for your dog! We cannot wait to share our space with you! ABOUT THE SPACE The yard is fully fenced in. We have a 4ft wire fence around the property. The back fence is a 6ft privacy fence. The largest opening is 5in at the bottom of the fence. There are no shared fence lines, our yard is ideal for reactive or sensitive pups. *There is construction happening at the property next door to us, so if you book during weekdays there may be some construction/machinery noise & distractions* 🥇We officially have a beginners agility course! It includes 3 jumps, 1 hoop jump, a tunnel, and weave poles. We hope you and your pup love it! 🎾 The space comes with dog toys, tennis balls, place cots, digging sand, dog waste bags/ trash can, and a short but smell-filled nature “trail”. Our yard is filled with squirrels and birds and your dog will love following their scents through the brush. The area is made up of short grass, overgrown brush along the fence lines, and sandy soil. 🌳 Perfect shady spot for the summer! We have many mature trees which provide great shade but there are also large grassy spots where you can get full sun. A table and chairs are provided in the shade, as well as a covered area. 💧Water for dogs is provided, as is a water bowl. You’re welcome to use the hose to rinse your dog off but we ask that you don’t bath your dog or run the water for long periods of time. Our house runs on a small well so we have to reserve water. (The well is enclosed and located far outside of the fenced area). While we do live in the house on the property, it is very unlikely that you’ll see us. On weekends, Connor may be working in the shop building, but will not be loud and will remain out of the backyard. If you have an especially reactive pet, send us a message and Connor will take a break during your stay. We want to ensure that your time is as private as possible. :) Our own dog will be secured inside the house. We ask that you keep your dog away from the back door of the house. For safety, we do have security cameras located around the property. Our house is far back off of the road. When you enter the driveway, you will pass our neighbor who is located at the road. They have dogs that will likely bark when you drive past them. They are fully enclosed in a privacy fence and cannot be seen from our yard but they can be heard if they’re barking. Otherwise you should not see or hear any domestic animals. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
