Description

2 quiet acres of lush grass surrounded by nature on Paint Creek. The river surrounds a peninsula in the lower yard area and has shallow spots for new swimmers and deeper spots for more experienced swimmers. Please feel free to wade in the river with your dog as they swim! No car traffic and no close neighbors.

This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water

Extras

Dog Socialization$5

My dog Kevlar is the black lab in the photos; he is very experienced in both swimming and socializing with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments of dogs. If you have a puppy or a shy dog who is unsure about swimming Kevlar can accompany them and show them the ropes to build confidence! He can also play and swim with other dog friendly dogs who would prefer to have a buddy!

Natures Dog Palace! 27 acres of maintained trails and free running space!

Partially Fenced
27 acres

The property is mostly wooded with some open field areas. There’s a trail system that is manicured and maintained as best as possible, but it’s not perfect, yet! The pond is a duck pond, my dogs will go in around the edges but rarely swim. I personally don’t like it but dogs will be dogs. There are domestic ducks who can out swim the dogs but please ensure they’re not chased on land. There are trash cans randomly and picnic tables scattered throughout- More will continue to be added. WiFi is currently being connected and should available throughout the property and trails. Pathway lights will be added. The trails can lead you to the highway border- It is fenced, there’s two spots along the trails to lower the fence and cross over and access the rest stop bathroom, vending machines, etc.

Arron's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Royal Oak

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

My backyard is a half-acre haven that's perfect for both wildlife and pets. With plenty of space to roam, it’s a paradise for dogs, offering endless opportunities for play and exploration. The area is bustling with life, as squirrels dart up trees and across the yard, adding a lively charm to the serene space. Whether you're tossing a ball for your dogs or simply enjoying the natural surroundings, I hope you have a great time! If you would like a coffee just let me know, I usually have a pot brewing ☕

The Nature Nook Dog Retreat - Shelby Township

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Almost a half an acre completely fenced-in yard (to the ground so even 5-lb dogs can’t escape) in a quiet neighborhood near 23 and Mound. Grass is kept short and natural. Never any poisonous pesticides or fertilizer used. All Natural! Seating and doggie pool available (request pool is emptied before leaving and not filled more than half or you can’t tip over to empty). No dogs in surrounding yards. Great for big and small dogs! Lots of trees and shrubbery to give you a private oasis. Please close the gate when leaving. Note: I bought my house with a large after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park causing 2 surgeries and very expensive vet bills. Enjoy my yard with piece of mind.

Monarch Hills Farm Private Dog Trails With Lake View In Holly

Unfenced
59 acres

Enjoy a beautiful walk on a network of trails that traverse rolling hills in and out of the forest. At the back of the property, you will enjoy some of the best and most private scenery in Oakland County. As summer turns to fall there are a lot fewer bugs and beautiful color changes. Some trees are changing already. Please stay on the cleared paths on the West side and South portion of the property due to work being done on other sections. There are wooden arrow signs that help you navigate to the back of the property and back to the parking area. Thank you. (We are currently expanding and connecting the trails, as well as clearing the views to the lake and river, so watch for some nice additions in the future.)

Wunderland Private Dog Park In Southfield

Fully Fenced

Welcome to our “back 40,” featuring an evergreen alcove, a small wooded walking path, lots of room to run, and tons of sticks to play with. For the humans we have a picnic table and two lounge chairs for relaxation. Special note for June and July: it’s mulberry season, and boy have we got ‘em (fortunately they are not toxic to dogs). Please note that our parking spot and part of our Sniffspot are covered by mulberry trees, so you *will* get berries on your shoes. Dress accordingly! 👍🏼
