Fully fenced in yard with privacy fence. Accessible from outside the home. There is little grass coverage, but plenty of shade and room for your dog to run and release some energy! We have two dogs so there will be PLENTY of fun things to sniff in the yard. (Our dogs will not be outside during your visit.) Our home is a corner lot, so we only have two sides of our fence shared with neighbors. They do not have dogs, but my neighbor to the back CORNER does have dogs that can be seen from my elevated patio. They are not able to access our fence, though.
