55My dogs had a great time exploring this giant sun-dappled yard. Diya investigated every inch of the perimeter, and the yard held her interest for the entire hour. Wiley, who is 12, found multiple nice spots to relax after he finished making his own rounds. A really pleasant space, with secure fencing all around. The location was easy to get to as well.Michelle O.

55We had a great time! It was my dogs first time with that type of equipment, so he wasn't sure about some of it. But by the end, we were all running around and having fun! The yard is long, so it was a great distance to play fetch, too! Leah H.

55Loved it here! My first time using a sniffspot, and will definitely come back to this one. Even on such a hot swampy day it’s delightfully shady! Thanks for the water and agility gear! Tara J.

55My pup loved exploring this area and the equipment…. Especially the tunnel! We brought everything we thought we would need with us but we’re very happy to see that there were poop bags everywhere for use and plenty of water ready for use at the picnic table. Very nice set up. We can’t wait to come back and figure out how to train our pup to use more of the equipment. This was our first sniff spot experience and are very happy.Dawn M.

55My two dogs and I love this Sniffspot. We’re watching a relative’s dog and this spot has been a lifesaver! Getting three energetic dogs adequate exercise is very easy with all the space and the agility equipment.Erin J.

55Better than the pictures. It was huge and the dogs absolutely loved it. There was plenty of water available. The agility equipment looked so fun and I wish our dogs would have made use of it but they were just unsure. I didn’t know that there was a walking trail along the yard (maybe it’s mentioned in previous reviews or in the listing but I hadn’t noticed), which caused one of our reactive dogs to bark when a dog came walking past. Besides that, this is a great spot :) Bridget C.

FAQ about our Scandia 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.
