55I recently visited this new SniffSpot between Brantford and Cambridge and was thoroughly impressed. The location was convenient, and the field was much larger than expected, giving tons of room for my 2 dogs to run and play. I’m so glad I found this one! I parked in front of the red barn then just walked over to the gate (access is from the road). I highly recommend this SniffSpot to any dog owner in the area.Whitney H.

55Great little private spot. We enjoyed playing fetch, and walking the property without worrying about seeing other dogs! There was enough foliage to provide shade along the side for my dog to rest in during our afternoon visit. We heard a dog next door, but couldn’t see it. We brought our own water and bowl. Enough plants were along the fencing that she wasn’t interested in chasing cars like she normally would. Host was available by message to help my dumb self find the parking spot (it’s easy to spot). Will be back, thank you! Ashley D.

55We had a great time here. If your dog likes sticks there’s a bunch by the gate. My girl did get through the gate but I was aware of this at booking and kept her on a drag line because of it she was fine after the start (aka once she was comfortable) and she tried again at the end (she wanted me to know she was ready to go home for dinner lol) the spot really is lovely and private!

55Easy to find and convenient parking. The dogs loved running and sniffing. We have two small (under 20lb) dogs so there were a few spots they could have gone under the fence but our dogs recalled fine. If my dogs didn't have any off lead training I might use a long line as a backup. Overall we loved it and would definitely return!Shannan J.

55Our dog loved this field and was exhausted for hours after. He had so much to sniff and so much room to run. The instructions for parking and getting in and out of the fence were clear and Jessika was lovely to communicate with. We will be making this a regular place to visit with our pup. Tanja C.

55Ours dogs loved this spot. Lots of room to run and play! There was one spot they could escape through the fence ( but was mentioned in the booking) so if you have an escape artist be cautious. Otherwise it was amazing and our dogs are tired!Rachel H.

55Our two dogs loved the spot! The gate was not a problem with my dogs but may be a problem with really small dogs. We couldn’t find a garbage can for the poop bags (we might have just missed it though).
Will definitely come back. Grace B.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot, and I was highly impressed! Super private, and lots of space for my 3 dogs to run and play in. I booked last minute with no issues, which is always a bonus for the busy lifestyles! I do have to say that I would not bring an escape artist here, as there are some gaps in fencing, however my dogs stick quite close to me so it wasn’t a problem for me! Will book again :)Caitlyn N.

55Easy to find and plenty of space. It’s a long linear space great for throwing a ball or stick. The fence was fine for our large dog but might not contain smaller dogs that like to run away. Ben H.

55I went to this location as our first sniffspot outing! It was just what the doctor ordered for my very active bordoodle who desperately needed to run but I get concerned in public off-leash places as his bark is loud and he tends to jump up on people.
As others have said, one side of this wire-fenced lot is entirely aligned to the road. The other side is tree lined. If you're size challenged like me, you can see the majority of the whole 2-acres at all times.
I will definitely be back!Jennifer C.

55This was our second visit to this spot. Can’t wait to go back. So much room for our boy to run around, play and explore. The gate does have an opening if you have an escape artist, however I find it’s out of the way from the open field. We will definitely be going back :) Nancy S.

55Beautiful spot , our dogs had a blast! It was very easy to navigate. We do have an escape artist in our pack so with the help of other reviewers we brought along a 45ft tie out leash and it worked out great. Our 2 dogs roamed freely and loved exploring and playing & our escape artist still had the feeling of being free while still being safe. The area is clean , well kept , easy to find , lots of space to explore and the garbage bin is located right beside the gate which was great. Thanks so much for having us! We will definitely visit again! Denise K.

55Great spot, lots of space for the dogs to run. My dog did find a small hole in the fence (luckily she’s always leashed) so for dogs who are known to escape I’d use a long lead! Samantha D.

FAQ about our Ayr 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.
