55My lab, Opal, had the time of her life here — rolling in dirt and smelling all the smells. 10/10 recommend!
55Beautiful spot! My dogs were in 7th Heaven!
55Great spot!
55My Borderheeler was in heaven. Beautiful and private. I felt safe to let my reactive boy run free.
55My dogs loved this place! It's a great wide open field surrounded by ponds and farmland so it feels safe to let dogs run free. We'll definitely be returning here again!
55Instructions on where to park, etc. were very clear. Appreciated the bucket for poop bags! A map showing property boundaries would be helpful (and maybe I missed it on the app) but we had no problems and the dogs had a blast. It was a beautiful day after a rainy morning. Pretty property. I hope to come back!
55This was 100% worth the drive from St. Paul! THANK YOU for this amazing spot. We look forwarding to visiting again. We got two very happy and tired dogs!
55Great place for the dogs to run! Quiet, safe and lots of space!
55My dog LOVED IT!
55Always a great place to reset and rejuvenate- for both me and my dog.

Sometimes, though rarely, we are working near our barn. It is .2 miles + a large pond away from the walking area. If this is a concern, reach out and let us know and we'll hang inside during your visit :)

Description

This 140-acre retriever training facility is made available to you when we are not training :) It features rolling hills, and several ponds. The main walking area is 80 mowed acres surrounded by ponds. While not fenced in, the neighboring fields are farmland - no houses, dogs, or people in sight. If your dog needs some serious exercise and room to run, this is it!

Hazards

Please do not go out on the ice and do not allow your dogs to venture out on the ice. We can not insure the safety and thickness of the ice, the water is flowing in the ponds so ice thickness varies.

GRAND OPENING Saturday April 13th $5.00 per hr (1/2 hr minimum charge) 50% off first visit Curbside or off street parking A nice shady 0.25 acre corner lot. Entry gate off the driveway A completely wood and cyclone fenced area. Off leash, privacy, play time for you, you/family, and of course, your beloved dog(s) Squirrels and rabbits pass through the dog park. My miniature little brown poodle, Morty Wonka, once captured a fast hare rabbit in the side yard park that was bigger than himself., because of this Elvis Presley became his friend, and Morty was no longer a “Hound Dog” For warm or hot sunny days, the Red Maple Tree in the play area will provide you with instant shade, and it is the perfect spot to place a chair(s) where you can throw optional numerous rubber ball toys to your dog(s) to play fetch & retrieve. Perhaps your dog(s) would like to take a run thru the 15 ft nylon agility tube, the adjustable garden hose nozzle will provide you the option to relieve yourself(s) and dog(s) with a cold refreshing mist, including sanitized stainless steel water dish(es) at your disposal, For clean up, towels, hand sanitizer & plastic small poop bags are at your disposal with a trash can to get rid of anything undesirable. It would make me very happy to know your dog(s) are enjoying the converted side yard private dog park, as my beloved dogs did, especially my white standard poodle Buddy, who the dog park is named after. He loved to crouch down by the pine trees and the very tall 20-30 ft high arborvitaes that line the west wood fence, as he waited for me to throw a rubber ball to him, that he would eagerly return to me. A canine, human experience, that will make you and your dog(s) want to return for more. Questions?
