55Joannie’s place is wonderful. My dogs had the best time running as much as they wanted to and there was no worry for me about them getting out of the fenced acreage. It’s a beautiful place to hike. Will definitely be back. Lana M.

55Another perfect romp for my dogs and I at Puppy Paradise. 🖤 The dogs got a solid workout with the hill and then we had an easy stroll through Indigo Forest along the east fence line. Super well shaded and will be perfect as the weather warms up. We’ll be back!Angie L.

55Joannie was communicative and able to provide guidance navigating the property while also ensuring my reactive dog didn’t have to meet a new person in the process. We saw neighbors on the other side of the fence at one point, but with so much space it was easy to move away and our stranger danger dog knew none the better. The space is beautiful and we will definitely be back. Caitlyn C.

55I took my four fur babies that are not at all trained and it was safe enough for them to run around and do their own thing and stay safe. So much walking and space to adventure. The hill view is really nice. Definitely will be coming back! Wendy P.

FAQ about our Salado 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.
