55The 30 acre sniff spot was beautiful. So much room to run and the pond offered a swimming experience. It's tucked away off the beaten path, but Marc left signs that helped you get to where you needed to be. The entire acreage is fenced. My three boys had an amazing adventure today. Lois I.

55Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property with us today! I truly don't think I could have asked for a better time with my pups. The signs for parking and instructions were so thoughtful and made the experience easy! Next time I am bringing boots and towels for sure! Rebecca A.

55My dog and I had a wonderful time. Would recommend wearing boots during the wet season. Highly recommend this spot for people who love to let their dogs be country dogs. We will be back.Chris M.

55BEAUTIFUL! Such a great space to just let a dog be a dog. The fence is secure, the area is scenic and was cleaner than expected for a farm. Thank you for sharing your space!Jessica G.

55Great area for your pup to be a dog! I will say if you have a smaller dog with poor recall (I have a small Brittany) you may want to look elsewhere. The large farm gates a smaller dog can easily slip out of, but my pittie Ridley did great. We ended up tethering the smaller dog (Sammie) to Ridley so she couldn’t escape. If she had good recall it wouldn’t be an issue, but just an FYI if you have a smaller high energy dog that doesn’t have good recall. It was also a bit muddy so I would recommend hiking boots and bringing towels to clean up! Otherwise, beautiful spot! It was my dogs first time seeing cows and they weren’t sure what to think!

55This spot was a lot of fun for our dogs! There were signs letting us know where to park and which gate to enter which was very nice and our dogs loved swimming in the pond, watching the farm animals (through the fence) and running to their hearts content! Great park!Mary K.

55We had a wonderful time! Marc was great to communicate with and the signs leading to the field made it easy to find. The field is gorgeous! So much space for the dogs to be run and swim and play. It’s a lovely place for the humans to hang out too. Already looking forward to our next visit!Emily P.

55I would have sworn on my life my dogs hated water. They hate rain, they hate puddles, they hate baths. They both instantly plunged all the way into the pond to go for a swim. Cannot speak highly enough about this experience. They also met a cow.Jill M.

55It was a beautiful day to play - the geese were in the pond and Teddy is getting braver and braver, trying to get to know them. The area is so big that every dog can find its own niche. My boys go crazy as we drive and get closer and closer to this dog heaven. Thank you for sharing it with us!Lois I.

FAQ about our Lancaster small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot 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.
How much do Sniffspot small dog parks cost?
Small dog parks in the Lancaster area range from $3.0 and $45.0. The least expensive small dog park is Kathryn's Private Dog Park In Blythewood. The most expensive small dog park is Aussome Place. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
Can I have an event or party at a small dog park?
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
