55great yard! my dog had a blast. I went in the morning and it was very quiet. It was sunny out but there was plenty of shade for my dog to relax in. There was a bucket of balls and a bowl of water. Very clean. Will definitely visit again.Alisha K.

55The space was as described -clean, safe, room to roam and play fetch for a small or medium sized dog (my dog is still learning the rules of fetch, lol), and a good area to practice recall while off leash. I'm new to sniff spot and it felt a little weird to just walk into someone's backyard but it was a good first experience and we'll come back here again.Danna B.

55This home has a nice sized backyard space that is completely fenced. There's a nice little patio as well! If you're visiting during the summer or a dry month and have a dog with longer hair there are burs and some foxtails here, so I would recommend to check your dog for them every once in a while while you're there and after your visit.Rebecca C.

FAQ about our Hickman 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 Hickman 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 63 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 6 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.
