Reactive dog friendly spot in Salemburg

Kindly read this entire description! Welcome to our home! We live in rural Sampson County and would love to offer a spot for locals and travelers to come run and play with their pup! We have a pup who is dog reactive and understand the importance of being able to stop and know that we have a quiet spot to stretch and walk that is not a traditional, public dog park! This is our private, working residence so please keep that in mind. We are very flexible on amenities and if you need something, just ask. There are chickens on the property but they will be left in their coop if a booking is made. Please ensure your dog has good recall and that they do not terrorize the birds in their coop. We also have a resident barn cat that does not like dogs and he will defend himself so please make sure your pup gives him some distance. We have a large field surrounded by wooded area that your pup is free to roam and play off leash if they have good recall. If they do not have good recall please keep them on a leash. If you would like to set up agility equipment - be our guest! In the summer the field does have patches of wildflowers that can get several feet high. We do not spray or apply any chemicals to them. There may also be a large brush pile present as we are actively clearing invasive plant species but we will not be burning while you are here! We have a resident dog that is very old and not dog friendly so we will ensure he is safely in the house, however I cannot guarantee that a stray dog won’t pass through. That doesn’t happen often and you will likely have plenty of time to recall and get your pup, but this is the country and there are folks that allow their dogs to roam. We have a senior dog that we must protect his health and outside animals we must respect as well so if your dog appears ill or is menacing we reserve the right to kindly ask you to leave - thank you for understanding. Please DO NOT allow your dogs to go into the front of our property. Kindly keep them in the field behind our home and garage. There is a covered shed area you may use to get out of the sun but please be advised there is equipment and sharp stuff under there so use at your own risk! Remember this is the country so there may be snakes, rabbits, ticks, ants, and other types of wildlife. Please dress and prepare accordingly ☺️. Thanks
