We have a beautiful timbered meadow Spot a little out in the Iowa countryside but it's worth the drive. It's 5 acres plus with easy access for the pet owners to walk along and accessible to drive into the area if needed. You'll enjoy the open clover meadows and huge oak trees for shaded areas to even have a picnic if you can book enough time for. There is a nice clean pond for your dogs to wade or swim in. With more shade around the pond. Your dogs will enjoy the dog and hiking trails around the pond and the fenced property.
James's 1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Johnston
Yard is just under an acre of fully fenced yard. A slight little hill on the property with a creek/drainage just past the fence. There are some shade trees on the west fence and I do have a small pergola in the yard as well for the humans.

🐾 Fun Backyard Hangout with Cozy Seating & Amenities Welcome to our little slice of dog paradise! Our backyard is a relaxed, mixed vibe space — part sunny open run, part shady chill zone — perfect for dogs who love to explore, sniff, and just be a dog. About the Space Our yard is large, fully fenced and ready for pups of all sizes, from tiny terriers to big goofballs. We want you to feel at home, so kick back on our spacious patio while your dog does their thing — it's a great spot to relax, scroll your phone, or just enjoy watching your pup have the time of their life. A Note on the Fence We believe in full transparency: our fence is 4 feet tall. Most dogs do just fine, but if your pup is an experienced escape artist or a determined jumper, this may not be the right fit. When in doubt, feel free to message us! Amenities We can set out a puppy pool, porta-potty (for kids), and dog toys. Just let us know. We can't wait to host you and your furry family member. See you soon! 🐶

Puppers Pollinator Path and Prairie Sanctuary with Dig Zone in Elkhart
We have a Pollinator Path and Prairie Sanctuary with Sensory Fun including a Dig Zone for your puppers. We have a fenced in Backyard for you and your puppers enjoyment. The backyard is around 6900 square feet of off leash fun. We have additional attractions coming as the summer progresses. The Pollinator Path is close to .5 miles in 2 acres. It is a mowed path and your dogs are welcome to be on long lead throughout the area. There is wildlife and infrequently a domesticated animal neighbor that might try to join you. Safety is key. I will have long leashes available to borrow! As in any prairie and pollinator area, there may be thorns, raspberries and poison ivy off the path. In the backyard there is plenty of shaded seating on the patio so you can relax while zoomies, sniffs and yayas are being fulfilled. Pookie and Belvedere (as well as their humans) may be in the house when your dogs are here. But, they will keep all their 4-legged fun inside so your dog (or dogs) can enjoy the space.
