55This was a great spot for my two larger dogs. They really enjoyed it!
55This is a large wild adventure spot for dogs. My dog had so much fun. I did to try to hike up and down the overgrown grass and trees and woods. The air is fresh for no other animals around. No other people around Fresh Water was there and someone had even left a chair, but all we did is hike for an hour. It was really quite a beautiful spot.
55Great spot! It is very wooded and shaded so it is great for warm days! There were a lot of tall plants to walk through so I would recommend long pants and closed toed shoes.
55Wonderful scenic spot!
35Very difficult to access and not mowed. Wooded area that might be good for some owners and dogs, did not work for mine
55Great space! The dogs loved exploring the wooded area and taking in all the sniffs!
55Great space for my dog that is always nose to the ground. Secure fencing.
55Lots of room to sniff, dig, run, and roll. I couldn't ask for more from a sniffspot.
55The property is lovely, parking is very intuitive and clearly marked, the host left out a chair for us and water for both me and the pups! They also had poop bags out for collection, very convenient. When messaging with the host, they were kind and helpful. I recommend this spot!!
55Very kind host! Lots of good romping through natural landscape

Location

Stamping Ground, Kentucky

Description

We would like to welcome you to a 2 acre, fully fenced dog yard that is on a hillside. The fence is 4 ft tall all the way around and safe for dogs, big and small. It's a natural space for the dogs to run, dig, sniff, or just sunbathe. It can be a bit steep in some areas and the Josephine road can be tricky when the weather gets icy. Bring a chair or wander through the trees and let your dog explore. The area is part forest and if you follow the top fence, it will take you over to a small, open field. We plan on keeping it natural so the dogs can enjoy the untouched habitat.

Cleanliness

91% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

I am a dog trainer that has a big dog yard and wanted to share it with dogs that don't have as much space at home to run and explore.

Hi there! Me and my sister live here and we have a rather large yard that no longer has a doggo to pawtrol it. We've decided to go ahead and open it up to anyone that might need to let their fur babies off leash for awhile. Both me and my sister are busy career women, so we would love for the community to get some use out of our little happy place. Humans are welcome to use any chairs, hammocks or tables. Doggies are free to help themselves to any grass, toys, or moles on the property. Please come out and enjoy!

A HUGE part of purchasing my house was buying something that included a dog friendly yard. My house sits on a corner lot so there's a very good chance that neighbors/dogs will walk by. However I have 6 ft. privacy fencing all around. I foster dogs so the "sniffs" my yard are ever changing. I have a splash pad and I’m happy to put it out upon request. Finally, due to the shortening days I’ve put some blocks on my calendar as I don’t have lights in my backyard. If you need a visit before 8:30 am or after 8 pm please send me a message and we’ll work it out. Just a note to park in my driveway on Longview Dr., in front of the gate. There’s a sign that says “Dogs Welcome, People Tolerated” to mark the gate.
