55Our dog enjoyed running around and playing in the snow. It was tough to tell the boundaries of the property (what part of the land we should stick to) in the snow but I'm sure that's easier when it's not there. We'd come back again! Marina N.

55I’ve been visiting Anne‘s hobby farm for about a year now regularly. Best place on sniffy within 45 min of Twin Cities. A gorgeous spot on this planet. I feel at peace every time I leave and my girl is the happiest dog!Susanne J.

55We had a great time! We got a little confused as to where to park and ended up at the house, but he kindly directed us back to the grassy area by the start of the driveway. Our dogs LOVED all the smells and space to run!
The only other animals we saw were the chickens mentioned in the description, and they were in their coop and not close to the path. Jami P.

55Great location, lots room for the pup, lots for him to smell. The parking is almost immediately right or left of the mailbox. We didn’t notice at first. Keep an eye on the ponds to the north and south, of the trails. Also if your dog does not have excellent recall I would skip this site, or leash them for a bit, there is a relatively busy road near the parking location. Amy N.

55Nice, private spot with lots of grassy areas to run around in! We played a lot of “find it” by throwing the ball in the tall grass and having our girl try and find it. She loves using her nose! Definitely check yourself and your pup for ticks after. Overall it’s a great space and the mowed paths make it perfect for walking around the property. Jenn R.

55My pup had a blast exploring trails and digging in the mulch pile! We will definitely be back. Definitely recommend bug spray and a pet safe fly spray for your dog too. And as the host said, have your dog up to date on a flea/tick preventative. But my pup is happily exhausted from his visit! Sarah K.

55Such a beautiful spot! We were able to do about 4 laps in an hour. The dogs loved it - they enjoyed chasing the ball up the path. The host had some poop bags and toys when entering the trail. The property is very well kept. We will definitely be back. Lauren V.

55I don't know if it was my imagination or if there were additional mowed paths this time. Either way, my dog enjoyed exploring! Will definitely start a membership when the snow starts.Tracy T.

55The dogs had a great time! Always best to make sure your pups are up-to-date on flea/tick preventatives before visiting though, lots of long grass. The weiner dogs had the time of their lives disappearing in the tall grass and sniffing around for critters in there! We had a small issue while visiting, but the owner responded fast and updated quickly what needed to be fixed.Laura M.

55Love this spot! We have been many times. Just wanted to give a heads up to people with reactive dogs, today when we were there the 2 black lab type dogs that live at the neighbors all the way in the back (red house) were outside and came running/barking at us. Luckily I saw them in enough time to walk myself and my dogs far enough away that we didn't have any issues but the dogs did come onto the sniffspot property for a bit. The dogs didn't pursue us too much though and I don't know that they necessarily meant any harm but my dog is a little iffy with other dogs so I didn't want to find out. I have been to this spot many times and this is the first time we've ever had this happen and we will definitely be back. I just wanted to let people know so they could keep an eye out!

FAQ about our Anoka dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Anoka area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 180 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 19 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
