55I have a Newfoundland and a Saint Bernard. We drove 3 hours to play at this sniff spot for my younger ones 2nd birthday! 😀 It was everything I hoped it was going to be, I booked for an hour and a half but after an hour they were both exhausted - $9 WELL SPENT. They had an amazing time. If we lived closer we’d come back a few times a week! Space was large, doggie bags were provided and there was a bench and a swing to sit on. Very nice spot!! I’m grateful they have decided to use it for doggos who need a safe space to run and play!Britny J.

55I brought my pit Bull Teja here on a beautiful sunny morning and she loved it. I loved it 🥰 It was in a quiet area, fully fenced with treats and a spot for myself to sit and relax. I will definitely be returning! Nina N.

55This spot was perfect! The fence is in amazing condition, there was good safe ground so I felt good seeing my dogs run at full speed knowing they won’t roll their ankle in a hole. So many things for my dogs to love and explore. We left with happy tired pups! I can’t wait to return!Onna F.

55I love coming here, my dogs love coming here! It’s kept very clean compared to every dog park I’ve been at and I don’t have anxiety about other people’s dogs being aggressive because you get the whole place to yourselves!Laura T.

55What a wonderful place! There is everything you need for a run at the dog park - water, toys, shade, places to sit in the shade. It was a warm morning and the dogs didn’t care, they had a blast sniffing and running. They left tired and happy - what more could you want!Janet D.

FAQ about our Park Rapids 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.
