55Perfect yard, totally fenced in and the hosts, if you have the pleasure of meeting them, are excellent. Our little beagle Leo loves to sniff and run and play and with no yard ourselves this place is ideal. Definitely plan on booking this spot more often and you should too!!brian p.

55We loved this space. It was a safe, clean, fully fenced and lovely yard with grass, trees and flowers. We enjoyed playing here with our puppy and also just sitting outside. And it’s very convenient to get to from the city. We will definitely be back.Jill R.

55Love this space! Clean and securely fenced. Perfect size for my Whippet to sprint back and forth and he loves the assortment of balls and toys, which means I don't have to bring my own. Very convenient.Vanessa C.

55The description was spot on - we did not hear or see any other dogs in the area, which was great for our highly reactive pup. Plenty of parking made it easy to get to. And our pup loved the toys we found in the yard.Breanna Z.

55This was perfect for us! Just big enough to have plenty of zooms and playtime. The yard was well maintained and we had many different toys to choose from. There was some taller grass and plants along the fence which the dogs LOVED sniffing in as well. The Shibas had a great time being able to get some off leash playtime and I appreciated that I could easily see them anywhere in the yard they were to make sure they weren’t getting up to mischief!Nicole S.

FAQ about our Newton 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 Newton 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 229 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 30 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
