55So so lovely! Great space with lots of shade and sun. The only thing is there are lots of neighbor dogs, which our pup wasn’t a huge fan of. But overall so fun! :) Elise M.

55My dog was totally absorbed with his favorite activity...sniffing through the ivy. I had a laugh watching him stare at the ivy and try to figure out what the movements and smells were. He likes to run in the large lawn and gets alot of stimulation of having so many areas to explore.Tula G.

55The space was large with plenty of space for our two puppies. I did worry a bit about them jumping in the pool as they had never been around water and did show some interest! Otherwise everything was a described.Cheryle H.
