55What a great space to run and play and explore! The nearby livestock provided a sniffari for my dog and gave him the valuable experience of being introduced to different animals from a safe distance. Karen had chairs set out and a bin of useful items like toys and towels. My dog enjoyed the huge bowl of ice water. The neighbor dog was friendly and the two dogs enjoyed meeting each other through the fence. It's a great Sniffspot in a beautiful, pastoral location. We'll be back!Tiffany B.

55This is our favorite Sniffspot and we'll worth the drive to the country! There is ample space to run and play, lots to sniff with the farm animals nearby, a friendly pupper on the other side of the fence to meet and make friends with and gorgeous views for the human folk. Perfection. Tiffany B.

55Mocha and I had such a wonderful experience here! We were warmly greeted and showed the area we could roam. Mocha had a blast running thru the creek. I brought a ball from home and we were able to play fetch after she fully explored the grounds. You can see goats and horses which I thoroughly loved. Heard lots of birds. Beautiful farm. Thank you so much! catherine l.

55Awesome location! Really enjoyed exploring and splashing through the creek. My fearful dog had no issues jumping right out of the car and frolicking through this wonderful SniffSpot. It’s secluded enough that I didn’t worry about random people appearing out of nowhere. Telani L.

55Loved the little slice of heaven and my dogs enjoyed every minute, stress free - No dogs, traffic or people, so they weren’t anxious and could just relax and enjoy “beagling.” We did see some goats behind the fence but no one felt threatened and they were cute! The w hosts are very nice, and there are also out houses hammocks and a small playground as well. Fabulous for the whole family!!boo p.

55What a fun romp! Beau loved the creek! It’s got lots of interesting things for dogs. I love there is so much open space where I can keep an eye on him. The owners are so sweet and helpful! Also, great that it’s almost at the end of a street no one would drive on except to get to the last driveway.Julie S.

FAQ about our Franklin 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 Franklin 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 238 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 23 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.
