Location

Shelby Township, Michigan

Description

Almost a half an acre completely fenced-in yard (to the ground so even 5-lb dogs can’t escape) in a quiet neighborhood near 23 and Mound. Grass is kept short and natural. Never any poisonous pesticides or fertilizer used. All Natural! Seating and doggie pool available (request pool is emptied before leaving and not filled more than half or you can’t tip over to empty). No dogs in surrounding yards. Great for big and small dogs! Lots of trees and shrubbery to give you a private oasis. Please close the gate when leaving. Note: I bought my house with a large after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park causing 2 surgeries and very expensive vet bills. Enjoy my yard with piece of mind.

Cleanliness

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Just be careful if you see any mushrooms pop up. I typically try to pull them out cause I don’t want my dogs eating them either.

Hi! I wanted to try this and allow people to use my nice natural yard. I love seeing dogs so happy as they run and play in a fully-fenced safe yard free of pesticides. They are so happy … and when dogs are happy, I am happy. I bought a small house with a nice yard after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park for playing fetch and had her side ripped open which needed 2 surgeries. After that I was done with dog parks and bought a big yard.

Fully Fenced 3/4 Acre Super Private Yard Perfect For Running And Chasing Ball!

Fully Fenced

0.75 acres

I am delighted to have you and your dog(s) enjoy this fully fenced in 3/4 acre yard! There are long open areas where doggo can run full speed chasing a ball. There is a concrete wall on one side of the property, woods covering the back and most of the side, and a tall fence on the front side, which creates a very private space. Also included is poop bags, water, and a poop scooper. No pesticides are used on this property. There is also plenty of room for parking multiple vehicles in the driveways. FYI- Chain-link fence is not tied down to the ground between posts, so a smaller dog may be able to push through underneath the fence. If you do not clean up after your dog, you will be blocked, so please pay attention to your dog! I hope you enjoy your stay at the property!

Alissa's 6 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In New Haven

Unfenced

6 acres

We have 6 acres which is a mix of open area, woods and a creek. We keep the lawn cut but do not maintain our woods. You are free to cross the bridge and walk in the woods but it may be overgrown during summer and fall. Feel free to splash in the creek or check out the playhouse. We frequently see deer and other wildlife however they likely will be hiding when dogs are around. Please clean up after your pets. *please note we have a woodchuck living under our deck that likes to poop on our stairs. We try our best to clean it up but you may come across some woodchuck droppings. Our yard has been sprayed for mosquitoes, fleas and ticks.

Melissa's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Warren

Fully Fenced

0.5 acres

.5 acre, fully fenced in yard. Most of the yard is 6ft tall except for the gate area, that is a standard 4ft chain link. Grass in the summer and snow in the winter. There is a porch with chairs to sit on and kiddie pools for the dogs in the summer. Now that summer is here i added a photo of the location of the kiddie pools and the hose. If they are empty feel free to fill them up! There is a hose that you are more than welcome to use for the dogs. I provide water bowls and poop bags along with a scooper. There are zero gaps in the fence.
