55While I knew there are some gaps in the fence, the yard is huge with lots of room for multiple dogs to run and play, there’s a hose for water and lots of tree coverage. The host was spectacular at accommodating my time out there and providing us with a great experience. Larger dogs will get more out of this spot or dogs with excellent recall. We will be back!

55The yard was very secure for the pups to run and play. Easy access to the very clean backyard from the side gate. Both pups got some exercise and enjoyed running around the shed. Very nice and quiet neighborhood. We'll be back. Michael R.

55Jordan’s spot was great! Accessing the space was easy and once in the space, I immediately noticed how secure it was. It’s located in a fairly quiet area which makes for a peaceful visit. I highly recommend this spot and will definitely use it the next time I’m in town again! Bianca S.

55Great yard for the dogs to run around in and sniff. Fencing is secure all the way around (just keep in mind spacing of fence posts if you have a very small dog). Hose and water bowl provided. Maybe bring some bug spray. Melanie G.

55Loved being here. It was such a peaceful spot for my newly rescued pup to run free and safely without much distraction. Such a pleasant and quiet backyard- I myself enjoyed being there as did my pup! Clean, quiet, and perfect.
Noteworthy- there are both gated fences and wood. So smaller pups might be able to squeeze through parts of the gated fence. Lauren M.

55What a great yard! Super clean, nicely manicured, and a great place to run (or so say my three littles)!
My little ones (all under 18lbs) could fit through the wrought iron parts of the fencing, so if you're bringing small dogs just keep an eye on them.
All in all a great place to bring your pups!Brandi H.

55Great backyard! Very clean and neat and comfy chairs. Pretty quiet too… only heard a couple of dogs barking and lots of room to play fetch. She tried to get out through the wire gate with her head so I’m not sure if she would fit bit she stayed in. :)kimberly b.

55This spot was great! First time doing a sniff spot and I loved it. I will say the neighbors dogs did come out and start barking at the fence but that wasn’t an issue for my two. The space was very well maintained and there was shade to sit in while the dogs played. Would go back!Kaitlin M.

55Olive and Whisky had so much fun! Tons of space to sniff and run around. Hosts left such a cute welcome message for us and lots of toys and treats to. Enjoy while visiting. Olive gives the splash pad a 10/10! Elisabeth Z.

55My sweet girl loved this place! First time trying Sniffspot, I will absolutely be back. She’s not friendly with other dogs so this is such an amazing option. The backyard is decorated so nicely, owners have everything you’d need. From insect spray to drinks to dog toys, although we brought our own because my dog likes these specific ones there were plenty of different types of toys to choose from. Amanda S.

FAQ about our Ennis 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.
