It is what it is

The good: for me it's the only convenient option; the owners are by and large great, never had a negative experience. Best way I can get her some good exercise during the week. The location and setting we like.

The not so good: As pointed out, it's all loose gravel and dusty rock and nothing else. No area of respite from that and also no shade most of the area most of the day. It eventually gets some from the nearby buildings but there is no shade function in the run itself. If your dog likes to socialize and tumble around she'll need a bath after 2 or 3 visits, depending on them and you. Kind of a drag that if there's any reason we need her reasonably clean that day we can't visit.

It's sort of typical NYC/Brooklyn. It's ours, and it's a mess but that keeps the more delicate owners away : ) (Just kidding)
