New? Please read details thoroughly :) We are a local family and love animals! The Painted Porch -Pooch Park- is just minutes from downtown Punta Gorda. We live on 5 acres with a barn and chicken coop. We raised and said goodbye to our 4 kids, a horse and 2 goats and now want to share our gorgeous land with your sweet pooches. We have 2 dogs, one of which had a very hard time at dog parks and leashes, this property was the answer and he's so happy! We understand the amazing benefits of a Private place to run your dogs, you can relax heritage oaks, sky-high slash pines while you play with your dog(s) in a safe natural space. You may see eagles, hawks, rabbits, squirrels and many bird species. Fun Fully Fenced 1.5 acres. My hubby Chris and I are Army Veterans, grandparents to 3 boys, love Pickleball, travel, art, beaches and mountain visits. (Dogs smaller than 15lbs are welcome, just walk the perimeter with leash to get familiar with the large layout and fencing type. FL red ants are like mosquitos, we treat as quickly as we can, rain will draw them out so please keep feet moving, dogs don't seem bothered) recent hurricanes have caused major damage to the interior of our home, you may see contractors in and out near garages not near your entry/exit gate. The green grass is coming back. Closed toe shoes recommended. Water hose and bowl (plz dump and flip over after use) for dogs inside paddock gate near barn.

Fully Fenced

Secluded fenced yard with large shady oak trees. Our yard borders a large preserve, and in the back is a creek with a bench. Great for fishing, relaxing, or as our dog prefers- doggy mud bath! The dock has a gate and can be closed off for guess who prefer. We have a fire pit area with chairs, can provide a speaker for music at a reasonable level. We do have neighbors, but are friendly with them and have plenty of space, they're never bothered by our pets or kids. We have a pup & cats who enjoy the yard, but they'll be kept inside during guest visits. Pup will be away from doors/ windows so she won't go crazy begging to meet the visitors or distract your pups from their playtime. Our pup loves to climb the trees, dig, romp thru the bushes, explore the woods, and chase critters. During the rainy season, we get large puddles she tears through. There's a gate at the entrance, and guests will be able to drive in & the gate closes behind. So you'll have access to your vehicle also while your pup can run free. Great spot for picnics or fishing while pups run wild and explore.
