Hello, my name is Andrew and I own a property in unincorporated Winthrop Harbor, Zion Illinois. I am offering the West area of my property to interested parties that would like a peaceful place to walk their pet and even bring a chair and sit and spend a little time with their animal. It is a safe place we have chickens and dogs of our own. There is no fencing so you would need a leash if your dog is the type to run off. It is an unfenced area although a large area with a huge back space where you can get some nature time with your dog.

Hi, my name is Bob and I grew up here with many different dogs over the years. They all loved to run, play and explore the yard as much as I did. I decided to name my spot for my mother, who always brought me to all the pet shops around and the reason for my love of animals. I sincerely hope that you and your dogs will also have as much fun running, playing and exploring the yard as we did!
