55Good for my 20lb doggo! Some neighbor dogs can be heard barking if your dog is sensitive to that, but it does state that in the description. One of the fences was a little questionable if my dog could get out of it (she's a dachshund mix, so low and good at burrowing), but I just put a large branch in front of it and it definitely wouldn't be an issue for a larger dog. Lots of toys and zoomies here! Kristen E.

55Smaller yard but plenty of places to sniff and explore. It was a perfect spot for our foster to meet his possible new family and their dog. A bit muddy but whose yard isn’t right now. Great instructions on where to park etc. Thank you. Shannon D.

55This is a medium-sized yard with a nice, tall privacy fence in a quiet neighborhood. It isn't really big enough for a large dog to full out run, but it's fine for training or light ball playing. Note that there is a fair amount of traffic noise, in case your pup is sensitive to that. Allegra A.

55Great private back yard. A bit muddy as the grass is minimal due to usage by the dogs but still a nice play area. If playing fetch, the bushes on the perimeter around the fence can make it hard to get the ball if it gets stuck.Kelly E.

55Great quiet little spot - previous reviews mention gaps - my 70lb pitty found no gaps at all. I would say they have all been fixed for the most part. Louis M.

55Great spot! Tons of room to sniff around and play fetch. Yard is nicely maintained with lots of toys to play with & fence was secure enough to keep in a very curious pup. People can be heard from this spot but wasn’t a trigger for my pup. We will definitely be back!Kendahl M.

55We haven’t been by in a couple years, and the last time was in the snow, which was a blast today was really fun too! my pups had a great time running all around and having 1 million sniffs in the various areas of the yard. This time with the warm weather, we got to enjoy the wading pool and getting squirted with the hose. We appreciate that the fencing is so secure! Definitely will come back! Sandra B.

55Great yard, easy access, helpful instructions. If you have a dog like mine that likes to chase balls but not fetch them, there are a lot of bushes for balls to get lost in :) On the flip side of that same coin, my dog loved running and hiding amongst those bushes.Em P.

55Safe and private, the very high fence was a must for my pup because he will jump over things to chase squirrel. He had fun sniffing plants, no visible distractions as the perimeter shrubbery grows high, dogs can hear cars here and there but the site is not close to the street so no loud noises of trucks braking or buses if you have a nervous dog. We were able to practice some training in a low distraction environment. It was raining during our visit, there is a covered area to sit with pavement. Compacted lawn not muddy during the thunder storm. Dogs burn off steam by sniffing and exploring! Thank you!Ren O.
