Fencing

Enclosure

Fully Fenced

Fencing height (at lowest point)

4 ft

100% of guests said fencing at this spot was secure enough to contain their dogs

Gaps or holes in fence: No gaps

Fencing type(s): Chain link - non-privacy

Fencing details: Fence goes down to the grass fully so even a 5-lb dog should not be able to escape. No holes in fence. Even tho it’s chain link I have a lot of plants around so it’s pretty private.

Location

Shelby Township, Michigan

Description

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.

Cleanliness

97% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Just be careful if you see any mushrooms pop up. I typically try to pull them out cause I don’t want my dogs eating them either.

Hi! I wanted to try this and allow people to use my nice natural yard. I love seeing dogs so happy as they run and play in a fully-fenced safe yard free of pesticides. They are so happy … and when dogs are happy, I am happy. I bought a small house with a nice yard after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park for playing fetch and had her side ripped open which needed 2 surgeries. After that I was done with dog parks and bought a big yard.

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 ☕

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! 👍🏼
