Perfect Size Playtime Yard

This yard has manicured grass, large fruit trees which offer shade in the warmer months, a variety of plants to provide different scents, and a dirt corner for dogs which love to dig! It's large enough to play fetch, let dogs play together, or just allow them to explore without fear of losing track of them.

97% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Fruit: When in season, I sweep for fallen fruit every morning and prior to visits in order to remove them; however, fruit may fall during your visit. Please keep this in mind. This may pose issues for visitors with multiple dogs if one guards resources, or if a dog chews or swallows the seeds or stones. Fruit trees: most fruit trees contain high amounts of cyanogenic compounds in their leaves and branches. For this reason and other safety-related reasons, please do not use branches to play fetch. Rose bushes: these are in several places along the perimeter. This hasn't yet shown to be a problem for any visiting dog or for my own dog. Other plants: almost every plant in the yard can be harmful to dogs if ingested in sufficient amounts. If you have an exploratory chewer, please be aware. For the most part they cause nothing worse than gastrointestinal upset. If your dog may have ingested a plant, please contact me immediately for assistance with plant identification. Mushrooms: there are several edible and inedible varieties which grow in the grass from spring to fall. You can find mica cap and morels (!) as well as yellow foot agaricus. None of them are edible raw, and yellow foot agaricus is not edible cooked either. (If you get to the edible ones before I do and want to keep them, feel free - but if you don't have experience with mushroom foraging, please ask for help with identification and preparation!)
