55Our dog loved this Sniffspot! She had all the freedom to run and play which she rarely gets at our apartment. You can hear the neighbor’s dogs from time to time but you can’t see them so our dog paid no attention!Nicole M.

55This would be great for anyone with active dogs that love to run and chase balls! An open, 1.5 acre field, level, well-maintained and securely fenced. Water, bowls, bags, scooper, toys and trashcan were provided. There is not a lot of shade so on a hot day, early morning or evening would be best. Much better than a crowded dog park!!!Deborah C.

55This was my first visit with my Lab. There were no other dogs in the fenced area, we were there by ourselves which I LOVE! We entered the gate with my pup on her leash. When we first arrived my Lab and I walked most of the perimeter (for me to make sure the fencing was secure) and worked on her “heel” commands. The fencing was perfect with no issues. We worked our way back to the gate, to get her a drink of water that I had brought. After that we enjoyed some ball throwing and she got to go explore on her own. Which didn’t last long. LOL She was already tuckered out after 10 minutes. We will have to work on some endurance. We did some more walking and exploring before her water bowl was empty. I thought I read that there was a water faucet on the property but I did not see it.
There are lots of ant mounds on the property, that would be my only negative. All in all our experience was GREAT! We will be back. I will bring bug spay though for myself. Karen W.

55This is a lovely spot close to Jacksonville but with a rural feel. Well maintained and clean with natural grass and a nice table in the shade. The fence is solid- trust me, my dogs checked every inch for a weakness! Great big field with shady area perfect for zoomies.Charlotte M.

55My pups loved all the room to run! My pit is a sniffer and she had plenty of room to sniff to her hearts content. My labradoodle is clumsy and I didn't see any holes for him to trip in. Very secure and well taken care of Sierra H.

55Out first visit, could not have had a better time!! My dog and I couldn't even make the full hour of running and playing. She LOVED being off leash and it was perfect for off-leash training and distance recalls...then I got my exercise just walking the beautiful area...can't wait for the fall and winter months to come and cooler dryer weather, we will definitely be back many times!! Thanks again for providing many great supplies and an excellently maintained fenced-in area. See you again soon!roger f.

55Great space for dogs to run around and get exercise. This location as toys and water as well as a waste container should you need it. There was a place to sit, which was lovely. It also has a dedicated gate to the area which is nice. kyron w.

55Absolutely beautiful. We've been coming since day one and it's never disappointed. It's quiet, it's large, and it's secure. Yes there are ant mounds, but it's Florida. The entire state is an ant mound lol. There are plenty of spots to stand that don't have ants. I personally choose flips flops because the idea of an ant crawling into my shoe is terrifying lol. The owner is wonderful and so kind. Absolutely wonderful spot. Donna F.

55If u have a pup that loves fetchit and runs like a demon, this is the place for ur pup. The table under tree for shade was perfect, such a tranquil setting. U do have to keep an eye out for those pesky fire ants tho cuz ur exhausted doggo will just plop down in exhaustion anywhere after that much running!Kara W.

FAQ about our Hawthorne dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
