55It’s very clean, open, and has a TON of toys for the dogs! We had a great time running around and then lounging in the shade of the umbrella. Will definitely be coming back!Sarah F.

55This is a wonderful resource! My pup is getting older and doesn’t do well at the crowded dog park any longer. So glad to have this option!Caroline M.

55Words can’t express just how happy I am to have found out about Nola sniffspot! My husband and I live in an apartment with our Min Pin, Jerry, and we have never been able to just let him run around without a leash to have fun and play. We all had so much fun running around and learning how to jump over the hurdle and through the hoop! He also loved the tunnel. Thanks so much for providing a safe place for dogs to be dogs! Sydnie C.

55This is a great spot! Fully enclosed, I felt comfortable letting my escape artist pibble roam around. Just be careful when it rains, there’s some mushy spots and your doggo might roll in the puddles 😅 Will be taking Mudge here again soon!Erin M.

55Great spot! Big and grassy and very fun! I wish there was more shade for the doggies but the underpass was great for my two and me. Will definitely be coming back. Remember to bring water!Kerstin F.

55This is our first time using Sniffspot and I’ve got to say it was pretty amazing. We have two large dogs who aren’t always great with other dogs which is why we steer clear of public dog parks. However, we also have very a small yard which means they don’t get to run around as much as we’d like them to. It was so nice having a large and private fenced in sets for our pups to run around in. They had a blast! There were plenty of toys for them to play with and a large umbrella for my wife and I to sit under to dodge the heat during breaks. We’ll definitely be coming back often!Ryan B.

55Easy to find. There was parking as well. Gate was easy to open.
The grass was clean. Freshly cut and well maintained. No holes or dead grass patches.
There were a few chairs and the umbrella came in clutch. There is no shade except for the umbrella but it give enough for the short time we were there.
Would let my dogs pee here again Joe W.

55This spot was perfect for our antisocial pup. Thanks to Lauren for providing toys, poo bags, ample seating, and obstacle courses. Process was easy, and proof of vaccination request made us feel super safe. Will definitely make this our usual puppy play space.Alyssa J.

55A great location that's easily accessible. Being my first time here, I had trouble with the lock because I'm petite and couldn't see the numbers. Other than that Anise loved it! Michelle R.

FAQ about our River Ridge 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 River Ridge 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 65 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 9 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.
