55I always love coming to Katherine’s sniffspot! The amenities are so handy (toys, hose, poop bags/scooper) and there was plenty of fresh water when we arrived (3 different bowls!). Clean yard with tons of space to play and for both dogs and humans to relax. We’ll be back!Christine N.

55We are visiting Dallas for a dog show. We have four GSPs and a Dalmatian that needed to run off steam. This place was just the best remedy for their restlessness. They ran in the yard and swam in the water. We should have tired dogs for tonight’s hotel stay. Bonus: The washing station! Loved being able to clean them up before putting them in the van!Cassandra A.

55This was our first time trying SniffSpot with our two hound doggies and it was absolutely perfect! Our dogs were able to walk into the water (they’re nervous about jumping in) and they had the best time! The property owner was very communicative and had everything you could need for a great day with your dogs— toys, water bowls, a hose to wash them off, etc. will absolutely be back!Brooke M.

55This spot was amazing! Safe, enclosed, and came stocked with everything your dog could need. The water is easily accessible and offers a good swimming spot if your dog likes that. There is more than enough room to run around and wear out your dog. She offers a hose as well to clean your dog off before leaving! Sydney S.

55Our dogs had a ball!!!! We were concerned that they may jump over the fence to get into the lake and thankfully, the run they had going down to the area and around was enough for them. We'd booked 2 hours and they headed back to the fence to leave after a half hour lolSheridan G.

55My dogs loved this Sniff Spot! The yard is large with plenty of running and sniffing areas. It is set up very nicely for dogs and their hoomans. I was really impressed with all the amenities and they even had some safety and first aid information posted. 🤗Ginger G.

55Sosa was recovering from a traumatic incident. Her sitter lost her on lake Texoma, where she was stuck in the water lost for two hours before a passing boat found her. She loved water more than anything and i was devastated this traumatized her. Bringing her back here it was like nothing happened. She loves and trusts your home. Thank you so much Katherine!!!!

55Our dogs had the best time playing in the big yard and lake. The hosts have the perfect set up and provide water bowls and toys! Worth noting that the lake portion is public and not fenced in. Will definitely go back! Vicky B.

FAQ about our Lake Dallas 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Lake Dallas 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 314 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 36 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.
