Description

Fully fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood in Allison Park/McCandless. Near McIntyre Square/Passavant/McCandless Crossing. You may park in our driveway or on the street. Enter the backyard via either gate and enjoy! Get out of the sun under our deck or the many tall trees bordering the yard. There is a water jug under the deck filled with tap water. I don't provide a bowl for sanitary reasons, but you can bring your own, or in a pinch, use a poop bag! Poop bags are on the gate by the driveway. Dog waste and other trash may be discarded in the large black trash can marked "Trash Only" outside the driveway gate. Under the deck, there is a bin of dog toys for your use - flirt pole, chuck it balls. If your dog likes to dig, they may dig freely in the dirt under the deck. Many dogs love to climb up on the stone walls and run around the huge deck to sniff all the animal tracks. Basic table and chairs for your convenience in the yard and on the deck. Note: The large deck has two bird feeders containing safflower seed. Safflower seed is NOT toxic to dogs. The bird feeders are out of reach of most dogs. Please keep your dog leashed until you are in the backyard. DO NOT ENTER OTHER PEOPLE'S YARDS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. **Please use caution in winter as everything will be snowy and slippery. The backyard and deck are not maintained in winter.

Hazards

Bird feeders containing Safflower seed are on the deck. Safflower seed is NOT toxic to dogs. However, ingesting LARGE amounts is likely to cause upset stomach due to the oils/fats. Feeders are out of reach of most dogs.
