55George's private dog park in Ladysmith is a little paradise. First, we were warmly welcomed by George, who even gave us a small map to help us navigate the maze of trails on his vast property. Then we explored the park with its lush vegetation and stream. The dogs loved it! I went with my Aussie, Victoria— a monster mixed with a gremlin—and her two friends, a tall Weimaraner named Hazel and Penny, a little dog from Mexico. Those three had the best hour of their lives. They got to live their doggie lives to the fullest. We, the owners, were relaxed; we didn't have to think about bikes, joggers, or motorcycles. We had the place to ourselves, and it was fantastic. Thank you to George and his wife for letting us enjoy their forest. It is truly appreciated, and we will be back.Isabelle D.

55My pup and I had such a great time here. She loved swimming in the creek and all the shade kept her very cool. This was the perfect stress free hiking spot for her as she is dog reactive. George was also lovely and provided us with a helpful map when we arrived. Hannah S.

55Amazing property! George is a wonderful host, who very kindly talked to us about his property. The map provided was excellent and a great help, along the various signs around the property marking the landmarks. My pup loved it and so did I. Gorgeous!
We stopped here to break the drive from up to down Island. Booked 2h and got to see most of it but you could easily spend more time exploring all the smaller trails. Can't wait to come back!Raphaelle M.

55This place was perfect!! It was such nice peace of mind to let my dog run and have the best time, without my head having to be on a swivel looking out for other dogs. George gave us humans a friendly greeting then gave space to my dog so she could go do her thing (which is lose her marbles and let loose in the woods). We will definitely be back.Larissa J.

55George’s nature park is a wonderful place to take our dogs on long lines and safely practice recall. George was so kind to come and meet us and give us a map and a lay of the land since it was our first visit. There were extensive trails to walk and a beautiful creek for the dogs to splash and drink. It was stress free knowing we wouldn’t run into any other dogs, as ours can be reactive. We are so fortunate to have George’s nearby and are already planning our next visit. George, thanks for all the work you’ d put in to make this beautiful private nature park and for sharing it with the larger community!Maria M.

55This was our second weekend in a row to George’s place and it is just amazing. We explored lots of new smaller trails this time- along the creek was the favourite. Our 6 year old loved it just as much as our dog so it’s an awesome place to get the whole family out for a walk without worrying about our reactive dog. We will be back!Kirsten M.

FAQ about our Ladysmith 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ladysmith 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 41 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.
