We are situated on 6 acres approximately 7 minutes from Wind Cave Park and a few minutes from Hot Springs City. Other tourist attractions mileage from my home: Crazy Horse Memorial 45 minutes (34.9 miles), Mt. Rushmore National Park 1 hour (49.4 miles), Jewel Cave National Monument 48 minutes (48.1 miles), Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary 31 minutes (18.7 miles), The Mammoth Site 11 minutes (4.7 miles) and Moccasin Springs Natural Mineral Spring 8 minutes (3.3 miles). If your pup enjoys a walk, I will take your pup for a walk around the back half of the property. It's peaceful and full of smells to discover. I haven't found a dog that doesn't love this walk yet! We have a fenced in (4 ft. high fence) back yard that is connected to our dog secure window & screened in wrap around porch. We moved to Hot Springs in Nov. 2021 and are in the process of setting up a big dog yard. At this time, we are only accepting small and medium dogs to large dogs up to 75 lbs because I hurt my shoulder. I would love to enjoy your big dog, but they would be locked in the fenced yard and/or inside with me the entire time, and a big dog would have to be OK with that. I’ve been around tiny to large dogs most of my life. I am not intimidated by large breeds or strong willed pets. I’ll have just as much fun with your teacup breed as I do with the giant breeds. We have had 5 dogs in our family, 3 Akita’s and 2 Shiba Inu's. We trained all of our dogs to respond to visual and verbal commands. I can administer medication and prepare special meals. I am a stay at home wife. So, I'm home a lot! April 2020, we took in a rescued akita. Shinshi is our gentle boy who is getting up there in age. Yuki is our 2nd Shiba Inu that has become Shinshi’s Support Animal! These two keep us constantly entertained 😁 🐾 You may have seen our akita, Shinshi, in the pictures. He appreciates his serenity; I keep him separated from my Rover client‘s dogs. He loves to play with our shiba inu, Yuki. For now, only Yuki gets to play with the Rover dogs if she’s not being a typical judgmental and antisocial Shiba 🤣 If your dog is potty trained, they are welcome inside our home. We are not set up for overnights at this time. Locals use Paw Patch in Hermosa, SD, which is 30 min outside of Hot Springs, SD.
