Truly's Fully Fenced Private Dog Run near Forest Park
This is a privately owned empty residential lot (not a backyard).
**This spot is not a business to make money for profit. All proceeds are considered donations for upkeep of the dog run, lawn maintenance, dog toys, etc.**
Entrance has a latch with a combination lock (see photos for clarification). Please make sure the gate is CLOSED and LATCHED at all times. This is a residential neighborhood, so you will likely see other people and dogs during your visit but not in the spot with you. Dogs must be leashed when entering and exiting the spot.
This is a self-regulated private dog run similar to a dog park. There is no water on-site. However, bowls, bug spray, hand sanitizer, and other items will be left on-site (typically inside the toy box to keep it clean). Feel free to add donations to the toy bin and leave larger donation items next to the bin. Please refrain from taking items offsite as these items are intended for the dog spot. A pet waste station is available with poop bags, a “used” poop bag receptacle, and a trash bin. Please remember to clean up after your dogs, put away toys, and throw away trash. The sand pit area located in the back is for digging. Patio umbrella can be lifted up (use crank) during your visit and MUST BE RETRACTED and secured with the strap at the end of your visit.
There is a 5 dog max. We prefer no more than 3 humans to 1 dog. If you are considering a dog birthday party, dog foster bash, or another large dog meetup event, please contact us before booking. This spot is the perfect location for dog meetups and is steps away from Starbucks.
Please note: This spot is for dogs to enjoy! This run is not a playground for kids/adults. All toys, obstacles, and agility equipment are for the dogs. Humans should not be climbing on the equipment or misusing the toys. Toys, tennis balls, and equipment must remain in the spot. If we see this type of behavior or rules not being followed, you will be banned from future reservations.
Please remember this is mostly a self-regulated dog run. You must clean up after your dog. We understand that sometimes poop gets missed, and I give everyone the benefit of the doubt that it is not done intentionally. We want all visitors to have a great experience, so please try to take care of the spot as if it were your own.
