Maybe a weird question but I’m wondering if anyone owns property with a private pond that they maintain. I’m looking for a place to work on retriever training with my dog and am struggling to find places to practice water marks.

Large lakes are usually too crowded, and a lot of the smaller lakes (Terrell, Wiser, Fazon, etc.) I worry about the water quality and safety for dogs swimming (algae, Giardia, lepto). Rivers and beaches don’t work because of the current and tides.

It would be a dream to connect with someone who has a private pond, tests the water quality, and would be open to doing something like hourly rentals from time-to-time.
