55My dog and I were embarking on a long road trip together, and I needed a safe spot to exercise her before our long drive.
She had so much fun at this spot and was able to run and run and run!!
We come here weekly. And every time my dog has a blast.Atlee J.

55This was our first time and we will be back for sure. Our rescue is very reactive and this spot was great for him. There were some geese and maybe chickens visible from the parking spot but they were behind fences and far enough away that it wasn’t an issue for our dog. Once we got to the Sniffspot everything was just as advertised. A nice shelter for the humans and a watering station were very nice to see. The spot is well maintained and provided a fantastic day for our dog. Thank you for providing this lovely spot.Gabe H.

55This was wonderful. I have a six month old puppy who does not have recall. To have a place where my puppy is safe but can have the best kind of fun is perfect. She loves the snow and loves to play in the snow, today was pure magic and I had one happy dog. All fenced and toys are available. We needed none because my pup’s toy was the snow. We will be back but also are looking forward to spending time there in the other seasons...thank you Stacy...could not have been better!Faye H.

55This sniff spot is flawless. Great mix of grass and wooded areas. Thoughtful additions like toys, potty bags + trash, and bug repellant. Our 4 yo and puppy absolutely loved sniffing, chasing and exploring together. A lovely change from our small “postage stamp” city yard. Will definitely visit again, and would love to make it an every-weekend thing. Alena F.

55This was the best place to walk through trails plus some open space to play with toys. Options for shade and sun depending on needs. A great place to train my puppy, work on things in a new place but without distractions. Great for reactive dogs if you need to decompress yourself and your dog and feel the freedom and safety of letting them run off leash. Quiet, Private, Well cared for. I did not see any other people or dogs other than meeting Stacie on our first visit to get the ABCs of the place. Highly recommend.Heidi F.

FAQ about our Nisswa 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 99% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Nisswa 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 12 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
