Denise's 1 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Swansea

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Our property’s back yard has a large lake, which is why it is listed as “partially”fenced. Otherwise, it is fully fenced. So if your furbaby is a swimmer, they will LOVE it here! There is a ramp leading directly into the water near our dock. However if your fur baby loves to swim TOO much and decides to exit the lake on the opposite side of our property, then you may have to hop in your car and retrieve them around the block, but If they have good recall, awesome! Lots of shade, and wildlife (ducks, geese, squirrels, raccoons) (Do not let your dog harm any of the wildlife). If your dog is a “prey” dog and you fear it will chase and catch a duck, goose, raccoon, then this may not be the place for you. If they know “leave it” then fantastic! :-) During the winter, if the lake is freezing over or frozen, we will NOT allow bookings.

FAQ About Gillespie dog park

Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
