55Such a beautiful spot! My dogs really loved exploring and playing fetch in this giant space. As mentioned previously, there are dogs next door that share a fence and are reactive - my dogs did run right over there but we had long lines attached so managing them wasn’t too tricky. Overall, pups and people had a blast! Alex B.

55We had so much fun here! Plenty of space for the pups to run around and explore. We loved all the toy choices scattered around the yard. Nice shady spots to cool down and plenty of open space to play fetch.
There are some neighbor dogs that ran along one side of the fence barking if we got too close, so just something to keep in mind if you have a reactive dog. Maddie S.

55Beautiful property. Tons of fun! A fenced in wooded area with small trails? Sign us up! We had an absolute blast exploring and playing some recall games, unfortunately I didn’t get many photos but Gideon loved everything about the place, including the fact that while a water bowl was provided, the water spigot also had a “self serve” option as you can see 😅. We would absolutely love to return! One of the best spots we’ve sniffed so far! Brianna M.

FAQ about our Norfolk 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 Norfolk 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 231 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 32 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
