Sally's 30 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Mount Airy

The perimeter of my property is fenced so you know you’re still on my property. However, it is triple strand so dogs could go through it. We do have chickens and ducks that free roam. We also have other animals that will be contained in the barnyard behind the barn. Drive straight down driveway towards RV. There will be a gate straightahead and another gate to the left. Park anywhere there and use either gate. The gate to the left leads to that big field and the creek runs the length of it. The other gate leads to the back and crosses over the creek. Walk up there just a bit and you will see a path to the left. It goes up to another open field.

Located in the foothills, the Slys Peace trail was created for dog stimulation. The trail starts at the lower end of the pasture and follows the creek meandering through a rhododendron forest. Situated at the base of 100 acres of wooded ridge land, the hike offers a wilderness experience customized to your comfort zone. There are multiple trails to accommodate your level of exercise. The full experience will require crossing the creek multiple times and is recommended for those with hiking experience. Trails are easy to follow with multiple exits that lead out to the pasture. This is dog heaven. Let your dog be a dog. To locate the gate entrance watch for the Giant metal horse. His nose points the way.

A Peaceful 3-Hour Visit on 6.2 Private Acres

🐾 The Story of Gabagool (Gaba) 🐾 As pet owners, we know there’s nothing quite like sharing life with the pets we adore. Sometimes, the most meaningful connections come when we least expect them. 🐾 We owned this property for nearly a year before officially moving onto the land. During that time, every visit seemed to bring the same quiet companion—Gaba. He would appear out of nowhere, calmly walking the land, greeting us with a gentle presence. He would sit quietly at my husband’s feet, resting his head there—simply being. Peaceful. Loving. Familiar. 🐾 Because each property along this road spans several acres, we truly believed Gaba belonged to someone nearby. It never crossed our minds that he might not have a home. 🐾 About a month after we moved in, a neighbor casually mentioned—almost in passing—that Gaba had been abandoned by a previous owner nearly six months earlier. We were stunned. Truly shocked. 🐾 From that moment on, we understood what we had already felt in our hearts: Gaba wasn’t lost—he was meant to be here. 🐾 Gaba has shown us parts of this six-acre land we didn’t even know existed. Quiet corners. Hidden paths. Peaceful spaces we may never have discovered without him. In many ways, he introduced us to the soul of this property. 🐾 We believe Gaba is a blessing to our family and to this land. His journey is what inspired us to share this space with others—to welcome you and your pet into a place that has brought us peace, healing, and perspective. 🐾 This listing and the time we share here was inspired by Gaba’s journey and everything he has shown us about patience, presence, and connection. Because some moments deserve more than just a quick visit, we’re inspired to offer additional time—two full hours— so you and your dog can slow down, explore, and simply enjoy being together without feeling rushed. 🐾 We hope Gaba’s story inspires you to book, just as it inspired us to open this land and share it with others. Whether you’re walking, resting, exploring, or simply enjoying the quiet sounds of nature, we welcome you to spend meaningful, quality time with your dog in a place that has meant so much to us. 🐾 Good Vibes & Wagging Tails 🐾 — where time slows down, and connection takes the lead.
