55Excellent, large fenced-in backyard for our Aussie to run in! Beautiful space including a picnic table if you want a place to sit while your pup plays. Michael even includes a shed of toys, and other supplies to make your visit awesome. Signs make it very clear where to park and enter the yard. Thanks so much, we had a great time!Mallory R.

55This yard is amazing! My pup loved getting in the pond, her first time in water and it was a great way to introduce her. The dogs played their hearts out and there was so much space to explore. There was a box of toys and a large water dish provided. Thanks for sharing this with us! Sarah S.

55Beautiful property! My dogs loved the pond and being able to jump over the little stream running through! We will definitely be back!
We saw lots of critters- chickens, fish, a duck that landed in the yard, and also a deer. My dogs enjoyed that as well!
If your dog is sensitive to other dogs, would want to stay in the front of the property as there was a dog in the yard backing up to this yard. katherine e.

55We had such a fun time checking out this beautiful property! The pond is absolutely beautiful - I was curious to see how water savvy my doberman would be, and she seemed to be pretty comfortable with wading. Will have to visit again and try to see if she'll swim one day! Michelle R.

55Beautiful spot with so much space and so many things to explore! Our dog did get pretty focused on the chickens, but the space was large enough that we could get away from them and still get in a lot of fun rounds of fetch! The hosts were also so lovely and thoughtfulAlyssa M.

FAQ about our Canal Winchester 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Canal Winchester 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 106 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 17 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.
