55Laura and her family are incredible people for sharing their space with the community for dog activities. Both my rescue pups loved getting to run free and take a dip in the pool. We’ve been a few times but there is no doubt we will be back again and sharing the word about this space!Delaney L.

55Amazing spot! My dogs love the water and couldn’t stay out. Plenty of grass to run around in also. There were dog toys, water, trash can provided and plenty of seating. Couldn’t say enough good things! Can’t wait to go back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful space! Amanda H.

55I had a great time in the trail with my boys! They especially loved cooling off in the pond!  Trail was hilly and clear to walk. One of my boys was adventurous went off the trail and got stuck in a little briar bush he needed help getting out, but that’s his own fault. Trail had nice hills ups and downs, and a few places to sit and rest if needed. There was also a picnic bench by the pond to sit at and rest. I’ll definitely be back.Shirla E.

55This place is really wonderful. My dog loved the pool so much that he didn't take advantage of the 3 acres he had available to him. This was really a perfect, peaceful place. Can't wait to take my pup there again!Nancy W.

55I enjoyed it, there was a few trails that wasn't too long but still pretty enjoyable and nice to trot along.
There aren't many signs of this being a sniff spot but there are a lot of indications of this being a private property so that should do it.
The pond was as clean as can be for the slimy summertime season. It was a bit stinky but that's what we expect with a pond and honestly our dogs prefer it that way. Perfect for some nature enrichment. Priyusha U.

55We LOVE this spot.
We use sniff spots for places to break shelter dogs out and Lauren has it all! Plenty of things to keep the kids entertained, a *mostly* private fence, and a big yard!
Another plus(not that it really needs one!) is she doesn't requires hours of notice to book. That means that if we find ourselves with some free time we can reserve her spot and go break a dog out for a few hours...which is honestly life-saving for them.
The only con is the front fence. It is not private fence and you do have to bend down to enter....this hasn't been a problem for us but could potentially be for some visitors. Desiree L.

55Love this Sniffspot. Good fencing. Surrounded mostly by trees. Super peaceful. Only heard a neighbor’s goat/sheep (but view of it was obstructed by the woods so my dog didn’t seem to care) and their little beagle at the very end — like, the minute our reservation was up — and it stopped after 30seconds. Will definitely come again! Margaret P.

55Perfect as always! We are regulars at Laura’s and it’s always great to have a safe space for Finn to run and play and cool down in the pool as it starts getting warmer out! Thank you, Laura!!! Sam M.

55This was a great time for our pups! Loved that you can pull in and shut the gate before you unload the pups. So much space to run! Our dogs our not sure about water so the pool was a great way to introduce them to it and one of the pups decided to swim twice! Rhiannon M.

55Great private area, nice and quiet for my reactive dog. Water wasn't the cleanest (had some slig around the edges), but it's a pond so it was somewhat expected. Also, kinda confusing as to where the dog area is. So maybe something to help out with where we can go. Overall, a great place for dogs!Tammie B.

5510/10 recommend. I almost don’t wanna give this spot a glowing review because then it’ll be booked more 😉 Buuut I shouldn’t gatekeep. Especially since proceeds help shelter pups, and I met my pup as a shelter volunteer ❤️🩹. This Sniffspot was easy to find and enter. It was quiet and safe. We had so much fun I didn’t even take pics!! A couple reviews mentioned host dogs entering the yard - note that was when they had a dog sitter whom they no longer employ. Zero issues with that, didn’t even hear dogs barking from inside the house. We heard faint distant barking from neighbors’ dogs but it wasn’t an issue and lasted a mere moment. My dog is scared of pools but if yours likes water, the pool seemed lovely (and clean). Lots of toys and water and a bin for poo bags provided!! We’ll be back for sure. Margaret P.

FAQ About Belleville 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. 15% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Belleville 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 217 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 362 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.
