Meet Kiwi 🍐💚

Big block head, massive wiggles, and absolutely convinced every human was put on this earth to give her love. 🥹

This sweet pittie girl stopped by for a Dog Day Out from and quickly reminded us why we adore these goofy, affectionate land hippos so much. Equal parts wiggles, cuddles, and happy tail whips.

We hope Kiwi finds the loving home she deserves soon. 🐾

This project nearly took me out 😂

But after a LOT of sanding, rubber granules, and questioning my life choices… the dog walk upgrade is DONE and honestly… I’m obsessed with how it turned out.

Fresh new rubber surface, vibrant new colors, and Ham officially gave it his approval today 🐾💙❤️

Spencer’s transformation says it all ✨

Once struggling with trauma, he found focus, calm, and confidence through nosework 🕵️‍♂️

🐾 Builds confidence
🐾 Reduces stress
🐾 Channels natural instincts

And the best part?
Your dog does all the work—you just guide, reward, and watch them thrive.

Nosework taps into how dogs are wired—searching, solving, and using their brain—making it one of the most effective ways to tire them out without exhausting yourself 😉

🚨 Our next Nosework series is coming up soon and spots are VERY limited.

Most dogs aren’t “dog park dogs.”

That’s exactly why Bosly’s Backyard exists.

A truly private indoor dog park in Chicago—one household at a time.

🐾 No other dogs on-site
🐾 No rotations. No shared spaces
🐾 Just your time, your space

Designed for dogs who are reactive, anxious, selective, or simply need a more controlled environment to feel safe and thrive.

Whether your dog needs to burn energy, build confidence, or just enjoy off-leash freedom without stress, this place is built for them.

And for social dogs?
We offer Small Group Social Hours and Dog Parties, too.

👉 Ready to give your dog their own private escape?

This story still makes me tear up…

Orca was one of our very first clients.

Her parents, Nicole and George, rescued her from Chicago Animal Care and Control in 2020 after she had endured severe abuse and neglect.

She was found tied up, her collar embedded in her neck, weighing barely 40 lbs. 💔

Orca is highly reactive to other dogs, cats, and even squirrels—making everyday walks overwhelming and stressful.

But everything changed when they found Bosly’s Backyard.

They started coming in August 2020 and quickly became regulars—giving Orca a space where it was just her and her humans… no triggers, no chaos.

Just freedom.

A place where she could finally run, play, learn new skills (we nicknamed her the “Show Dog”), and simply be a happy dog.

And that’s exactly why this space exists.

Because every dog deserves a place where they can be themselves and feel safe.
And so do their humans.

🐾 Comment “DOG” if your pup needs a safe, stress-free space to just be a dog. ❤️
