What people say about dog parks around Barnstable, Massachusetts

December 2023

great spot! I was a bit hesitant upon arrival with how big the property was and worried that the fence was not secure. We did not have any problems. The owner did mention a gate that a "small" dog might be able to get through, my 35lb klee Kai and 45lb Portuguese Water dog would have been able to get through if given the chance... just a warning to dog owners. but we will definitely be back!

What a great spot!! Very large, clean, open field with lots of great smells and space to run. My dogs had an absolute blast exploring and running around. Ginny found some sheep fur that she ran around with and was so proud of herself!! I was surprised at how clean it was. Being a sheep farm I expected some sheep poop but it was nowhere in sight during our visit. Reached out to Mike with some questions before the visit and he responded quickly and answered all of my questions. It’s about and hour and a half each way for us, but we liked it so much we will certainly be back.

We drove from JP in Boston for this spot and it was totally worth it to have so much space. Tons of good smells for the pups. It was pretty rainy today but no mud, which was great. We could hear dogs barking from one side and see sheep but it didn't bother my pups at all.

Lovely location! Daria my fur baby and I worked on some training, she did lots of running and just enjoyed being a dog! ☺️ Location is marked so you know where to enter which is helpful! We will be back! 🐶

Had a great time! Signs were clear. We knew exactly where to go. I was a bit nervous because my 33 pound heeler/chow chow is obsessed with squirrels and I saw comments about dogs potentially being able to get through the fence, but the big open space was interesting enough and the fence a good enough boundary that she didn't bother trying to get through at all. We played some fetch and she got to sprint around freely. It was so good for her. We'll be back.

This was my first time using this app. The field was perfect. Huge with a great fence. The owner was helpful but hands off and very good with communication. The field was clean and there was a water trough. Good parking and a rural and quiet spot. I adopted my dog 5 months ago. She lived on the streets before being brought in to a rescue group. She has excelled at obedience class and is great on a leash but when she is off leash she reverts to her independent street dog ways and takes off. She got to really run here and I was comfortable that I could get her back. Haven’t seen her move like that since I adopted her. The off leash running also helped her bond up with my other dog. I will definitely be back to Sheepdog Junction

My pup loves coming here!! We’re hesitant to go to new places since my boy is an escape artist but it was fully fenced and secure!

This place is so awesome! A huge, safe area for our pup to run around. He had the best time!

There’s so much space for my dogs to run. They had a blast and I didn’t have to worry because it’s fenced in. They loved splashing through the water too.

Allyson M.

Our dogs love running in open space so this was perfect for us! The youngest one doesn’t get too much off leash time so he had a blast. It was nice and quiet and far enough from any main roads that traffic sounds weren’t an issue.

Highly recommend this spot! A great spot to take your pups. Lots of room to roam and sniff. Will be returning

Erika M.

Our two dogs loves this place! The fully fenced area is secure and there is so much room for them to run and get all that energy out!

The space was great and Mike couldn’t have been any friendlier or easier to communicate with when I reached out with a question. We would definitely make the trip back!

My fur babies absolutely loved running around. My husky that hates water loved the biggest puddle there 😏 can’t wait to come back.

We had such a good time there, I picked a great day, and the sun was shining, my giant, Corso and I ran around chasing ball and splashing through some of the wetland puddles, jumped over a few giant logs, It was very serene, quiet and beautiful. We will be back, hopefully for some sheepherding lessons. We love it here.! I’m a dog trainer and I’ll definitely be bringing my clients dogs here

Mike’s location was great! My dog is a hound so she loves to sniff and explore but she rarely gets to do so off leash. This spot was perfect and safe for her to roam around and explore with her friends. Highly recommend!

Danika O.

March 2024

Great space! Fully fenced. I could hear some dogs in the distance, but overall very quiet and clean. Will definitely come back again!

Julia M.

March 2024

Mikes place was the perfect spot to bring my pup and his friend to let loose. They loved exploring the wooded area in the back, jumping over logs, and trying to find any mud they could get their paws in. It was easy to find and we will be back.

Could not recommend this more!! The huge fenced in area was perfect to let my pup run around!!! Will definitely be back to Sheepdog Junction, can’t wait to check out the extra services available next time. Thank you!
