55This is one of my pups’ favorite Places to play. Lots of room to run through a woodsy area and also through lots of grass. Plenty of places to sniff and explore. We were even able to visit briefly outside with the owner’s dog. Places for humans to sit and relax and lots of water for pups to drink. We plan to return. 🐶🐶😊Joy M.

55The location was spacious and had lots of different areas for sniffing, exploring, and running. There were sitting spots for humans, toys, and a trash can for poo bags!Erin G.

55Expansive well kept lawn plus some lightly wooded area. This was the first time my reactive boxer has been able to run and explore off leash and she loved it! We'll be back.Stephanie D.

55The space was a fantastic place to change up my pup’s routine with plenty of room to run and sniff! The yard was very clean as well as the sitting area and we took full advantage of both. Plenty of waste bags were provided as well as a station for water. A great experience overall and can’t wait to be back!Anna B.

55Great spot! My dog is reactive/easily distracted so we stuck to the end of the yard farthest from the house to avoid hearing or seeing any possible dogs. My dog enjoyed running in the grass and sniffing around! It’s nice that there are trees which provide a shaded section in the yard. Alison M.

55The property was easier to find than we thought. It was very secure and we didn’t have to worry about our guy getting out. There was a great mix of flat grass for running and woods for sniffing around. We’re working on some weight loss and don’t love the uncertainty of dog parks. This is the perfect solution. Will be using again! Kathryn C.

55Huge yard with high fences. Great for my big dog with springs for legs. She got to fence fight a bit with neighbors but since she couldn’t see them it wasn’t distressing.
Mine didn’t poop but I cleaned up after 3 others. Hmmm Kathryn M.

55Great place. Good combination of open area and cleared wooded area. My reactive dog got to run off leash in a large area and the dogs barking in the owners' windows were great for training! :) Barbara N.

55This spot offers so much to sniff, to run and then relax afterwards. Plenty of shade! My Sumi sniffed and ran to her hearts content! This would make a great space for a doggy party 🎉Z. I.

55Fantastic spot! The dogs really enjoyed running in both the open grass and rooting through the woods. It was a lovely fall afternoon, and it was a great way to spend an hour with Alfie and Frankie. I will definitely be back again, maybe with some doggie friends for a playdate!Amy S.

FAQ about our Midlothian 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Midlothian 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 114 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 20 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.
