55Very beautiful views. Plenty for your dog to explore. Plus you get to see horses!
45Wonderful rustic country ranch. I had a little trouble finding it, but once there, its great for dogs that like to explore. Wear closed toed shoes and prepare to get a little dusty. There are a few chairs underneath a tree to sit in while your dogs run through the fields.

The Artsy Dog Place 1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Southwest Escondido

Picture this: You and your pup, nestled in the shade of magnificent oak and pepper trees, perched atop a gentle hill. As you both catch your breath from climbing the gentle hill, you can't help but be captivated by the view that stretches out before you in this is unique one acre fenced open space, in Southwest Escondido. The perfect blend of tranquility and countryside feel, all within reach of Rancho Bernardo, Lake Hodges, 4S Ranch, Penasquitos and San Marcos and 5 min away from I-15 and just 16 min. drive to Pacific Highlands Ranch in Carmel Valley. At the Artsy Dog Place you can take the leash off and as your puppy enjoys the freedom of exploring, you can tap into your own artistic talents. Art supplies are available near the picturesque shed, allowing you to unleash your creativity while your dog runs up and down the hill. Leave your mark on the shed, whether it's a message, a signature, or a whimsical drawing or paint a rock and help us start our collection! It's a place where dreams take shape, fostering a sense of togetherness and inspiration. Thoughtfully designed with your pet's safety in mind. It is securely fenced. With 2 sides of the fence, standing 6 feet tall, while the other two sides are fenced at 4 & 5 feet in height. This ensures that your dog can freely enjoy their playtime while staying safely contained. As you enjoy the serene surroundings, you might hear chickens, roosters and goats in the distance and catch glimpses of squirrels and hawks. And if you're lucky, maybe even a curious gopher or two. Nature truly thrives here! When you arrive, simply park horizontally next to the fence and enter through our black metal door, which will be open for your convenience. Doggy bags are available for your use, ensuring a clean and enjoyable experience for everyone. We also offer Homemade bug repellent. Feel free to use it, be aware that some of the ingredients may cause irritation/allergy. Ingredients: Rosemary, lavender and citronella grown in our property, lavender and citrus oil, cloves, water, alcohol, organic soap. Please be aware that a lot of ground squirrels live on the property, so there may be some holes, please dress appropriately when you visit (no heels recommended). We also kindly request that you maintain a distance of at least 5 feet from our neighbor's fence, located at the top end of the property. Our neighbor values their privacy greatly, and we aim to ensure a harmonious environment for everyone. By respecting this boundary, we can continue to keep the artsy dog park open for everyone's enjoyment. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! Come and experience the magic of the Artsy dog place, where the arts and dog lovers meet. We can't wait to welcome you!

Palmhill's Private Dog Park In Valley Center

The Sniffspot venue is a 3 acre fully fenced area that you and your dog will have unsupervised, exclusive use of for the time that you have booked. There, you will find fresh filtered (RO) water for your canine companions, an abundance of toys, Chuckit balls and launchers, including guest supplies and other listed amenities. The entire farm is 36 fenced acres. For anyone interested, I will gladly provide supervised walks around the entire property for additional psychological enrichment at no additional cost. Note: Palmhill is a working organic farm. There may be an occasional worker sighting, but absolutely no reason for any employee to ever interact with a guest or their dogs. My interests lie in offering an affordable, stress-free, large, safe, clean, offleash venue for guests and their canine companions. Thanks to an awesome group of guests who have been with us since first opening the venue, this has been a very rewarding experience. However, there have been, a few guests who have not been doing a very good job of cleaning up after their own dogs which makes it very unpleasant for the guests who come in to the venue next. I have many visitors who pick up dog droppings of other people's dogs and don't say a word, and also return toys and balls to the recepticles, but they shouldn't have to! I actually had a guest say to me once, "Oh, I thought you had people to do that!" No, everyone is responsible for cleaning up after themselves before they leave the field. That's how we keep the venue tidy and affordable! I don't think that's an unreasonable expectation. I've had to post a list of reminders at the venue, (thank you, Michele) which I feel terrible about because they're not relevant for the MAJOROTY of Palmhill's guests. It's just a handful of mostly newer guests who aren't being very team friendly. I've met some awesome people and even more so awesome dogs, but sorry to say, if you don't play fair, you will be asked not to come back to this venue. Everyone is welcome including, large groups, highly reactive dogs, special needs dogs- dogs with anxiety, physical handicaps, previous dog park trauma dogs, etc. We love them all and will do our best to make everyone feel welcome! Thanks so much for your support! 🐾❤️🐾
