Update 9/1- Sorry for the inconvenience but due to cool temperatures and our unheated pool we are going to close the pool a little earlier this season. See you next year! Come bring your water-loving pup to swim or run around and play in our fenced in yard! The yard area is smaller and not really suitable for long-distance toy throwing, but the yard and deck are well-shaded for having the zoomies, cooling down, and for your dog to use the facilities with bags and/or a scoop and trash available. Pet parents may use restroom inside upon request, please refrain from using the yard ;)

Large fenced in yard on the north side of Zeeland. We are constantly working on our yard to make it fun and the best it can be for not only my dogs, but our visitors as well! I have two reactive dogs so I understand the need for spaces like this!

Welcome to Pooch’s Paradise! I’m Kaitlyn, a professional dog trainer who owns Kaitlyn’s Dog Training. My dogs are basically my children, and the entire yard has been catered to them and my clients’ dogs. This half-acre yard is fully fenced (6 foot privacy, plus a 4-ft chain link surrounding a garden area), and even has a double-gate system to enter and exit, like you would see at a dog park to add extra safety. There are tons of enrichment activities available. I always have a wide variety of toys, a children’s climbing playset that the dogs love, a few small agility tunnels and one large one, an agility teeter totter, and have plans to add additional agility equipment at some point in the future. **I also have kiddie pools I can fill if you give advance notice and select it as an add-on option.** There’s a gazebo that offers shade and is also screened in to prevent most bugs from getting in. There’s a clear tote by the entry gate that contains clean towels and also a Mudbuster tool for cleaning off paws. We do everything we can to provide the absolute best experience for you and your dog, and we think you’ll love it! The only dogs I have ever allowed on the property are vaccinated, healthy, and up-to-date on flea & tick prevention. All the pups who visit my home find that the yard is quite literally their own personal playground, and I know your dogs will love it too!

This spot was developed as a starting pen for beagles. Brush piles, food plots, and secure cover were established for rabbits. Elevated observation decks (use at your own risk) were built for dog owners to observe their dog working a running rabbit. This spot is designed for beagle use but is multi use for all breeds of dogs. This spot is located in the "country" with easy parking and access. There are very few distractions which allows you the opportunity to enjoy a peaceful experience on mowed trails with plenty of area to investigate, and plenty of scents to stimulate your dogs sniffer.
