20 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Stem, NC

Unfenced
20 acres

Imagine Disneyland for your dog! We have 20 acres of open land, perfect for your furry friend to run and play. It's a secluded open-space forest where they can get plenty of exercise and even enjoy the nearby creek. I hope your pup enjoys this open forest as much as mine does! **Please be aware even though we try our best to maintain the fence between us and our neighbors property, there might be some new holes we have not had time to get to. It is recommended that your dog has good recall in case they get distracted by the neighbors’ horses or they are tempted to Go through a hole. PLEASE BE AWARE** This is a rural area, and it is possible that neighbors may occasionally be shooting on their property. While this does not happen often, I wanted to let you know this is a possibility.

Private Dog Park In Northgate Park

Fully Fenced

First timers: use discount code PupLove14 for $2 off! Welcome to my private dog park! It’s a great space for pups to explore and relax without worrying about other dogs or animals. I have a 9 foot privacy fence surrounding most of the yard, which can be latched but is never locked. I have grassy, gravelly, and mulchy areas for the pups and a seating area for the humans. There is also a hose for filling water bowls and toys in the yard or shed. There are no resident dogs, only curious (indoor only) kitties who may peep at you. Sometimes we dog sit, but we will be extremely conscientious to not allow the dogs near each other. Let me know if you have questions 😊

Janet's Durham City Bark Park

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

I have a fully fenced in yard. There is one gap, but we have covered it with cinder blocks. It is a 6 ft privacy fence, so you shouldn’t see the neighbors. One set of next door neighbors has a dog that is occasionally out. Please keep dogs on leash when outside of the yard. Thank you! Out in the yard there will be balls for your pup to play with, a water bowl, and a hose. We can also set up a tent we use for vendor events when it’s sunny or raining for shade/coverage. Just let us know in advance. There is also shade from a large tree in the yard. If you need a dog first aid kit, we will have one in the house along with things like water for humans, snacks for pups and humans, and a restroom for humans to use. If you need a towel for your pup, let us know, and we’ll be glad to give you a dog towel to use. We will bring things out to you. These are only available if we are home. Street parking is available at all times. You may park in the driveway, but please ask first in case one of us is going to have to leave (or coming back) while you are there.

Frequently asked questions about Nelson dog park

Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 89 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 183 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
Does Nelson have any fully fenced dog parks?
Sniffspot has 89 fully fenced dog parks in or near Nelson. Browse all fully enclosed options.
Where are good dog hiking trails near Nelson?
The Nelson area has 12 Sniffspot locations with private trails for you and your dog to walk or hike. Dogs can generally be off leash on Sniffspot trails. The most popular trail is 20 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Stem, NC.
Are there dog agility courses for rent in Nelson?
