I am retired after 8+ years of dog sitting/boarding, and we have created a fun yard for my clients to play in. We had two little dogs who didn't do well at public dog parks, so I am grateful to be able to provide our yard as a great alternative to dog play spaces. Denny (bichon/poodle) was attacked by 6 German Sheppards at a public park the first time we took him there as a puppy. He was terrified! Dexter (bichon) was a reactive dog, too cute for people to believe me, and so they constantly wanted to pet him. We recently had both dogs pass away, they were elderly, 16 and 19 years old. I hope you will come and enjoy their yard!
