55Such a sheltered spot among all the trees. I little wet, which is to be expected with the spring melt this time of year, but they had sawdust down and little wood bridges which were great! And of course our pup loved it. Plenty of space to run and explore.Andrea B.

55My puppy had the best time running through the trails here! Pretty sure he'll sleep like a rock tonight. Trails and yard are a bit wet with the spring thaw (to be expected!), but the host has spread sawdust in places to absorb some of the wet. Towels to dry off my pup were provided, which was really appreciated, as well as drinking water. It was puppy's first time seeing chickens and ducks, so a little extra socialization for the win. 🙂Stephanie J.

55What a great spot! Nash loved exploring the trails in the backyard and checking out the ducks and chickens. It was a bit muddy - to be expected for this time of year, and the host put boards and saw dust down to help, and had a bucket of towels to wipe down before going home which was a very nice touch. We will certainly be back! Jessica Q.

55What a great spot! Our guy loved having both woods and open spaces to run and explore through. Grateful to Valeria for the sawdust in the wet areas and for having water and towels available. Rachel M.

55My three pups had a blast. The area was fully fenced off so we didn’t have any worries. We went on a sunny spring day when the snow was melting so the pups got dirty with mud but Valerie left us some towels. She was most thoughtful. Will visit again.Violet V.

55First time there and the dogs had a blast! Muddy dogs are the happiest dogs. The host was very responsive and answered all questions promptly. The chickens and pekin ducks are visible so if your dog has high prey drive, keep that in mind. I asked the host to put the chickens in a coop because I wasn’t sure how my dog would react and I felt that the fence and the coop was secure enough to give me peace of mind. He enjoyed looking at them but also wanted to eat them, haha. Gurleen M.

55This was my first ever time using this app. The place in Oxford Mills was everything I hoped it would be, my pup had the best time in a well laid out and safe area! Am going back soon and will go many times after that. Highly recommend Sniffspot to anyone who has a dog that loves to run but either doesn’t have 100% recall or like me, just doesn’t have that kind of space. Thank you Valeria for Hosting!Al A.

55First time here with our dog and our dogs best friend. Brought my 9 month old daughter and sat in the shade with her while the dogs ran and played in the water/mud! Great spot and will be back again for sure! As you can see from the photo they are pooped!Taylor H.

55This was a wonderful place for our two dogs to romp around. There’s a large yard great for playing catch, and there is a gate which leads to an amazing wooded area with several trails winding about. They enjoy their selves fully. There’s fresh water available. I would highly recommend for a wonderful off leash experience.

55Great communication, nice location with lots to explore. The dogs enjoyed their time and tuckered themselves out before the hour ended. We appreciate the water and bowl left out as well as the towels though we didn't end up using them it was still a thoughtful touch.Barb L.

55My dogs had a BLAST here. I have a reactive dog, and it was so nice for him to be able to run and play and go for a walk in the woods like a normal dog and I could relax and not worry about his anxiety (and mine). He had a smile on his face the whole time as you can see in the pictures. My Chihuahua was fascinated with the chickens which was hilarious. We had a fun time and will be returning often. Thank you for sharing your refuge.Rhonda M.

55This was a great spot and the perfect size for our two dogs to get a good run and also do some exploring in the woods. The fencing was great and I love that you drive in and then close the gate so even the front is secure. It wasn’t very muddy at all, but Valeria still left out some towels and the hose in case we needed to rinse the dogs off before getting back in the car. We will definitely visit this spot again!

FAQ about our Canton 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Canton 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 14 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 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.
