55Fur sure was a wonderful spot for my dog Skylar. Plenty of room to throw the ball and it was quiet and private. Cherly was very friendly and communicative prior to the visit. I highly recommend! Lucinda P.

55Lovely spacious area to play. My dog takes “sniff spot” literally; she’s not interested in toys, just smells & was able to sniff to her heart’s content. The host provided easy instructions and left out some toys if needed and some water. Veronica H.

55A wonderful quiet spot with lots of good snuffs! The host Cheryl is so sweet! Great place for our dog Finn to burn off some energy in a quiet neighborhood. A+++Sally K.

55Great spot! Nice tall fencing and relatively quiet, worked well for our reactive pup (as nothing outside the fence is visible), would recommend to anyone else with a reactive dog.Naia G.

55Had a great time! Plenty of space for my active golden to romp around & burn some energy from being cooped up in a car on our road trip. We went around 5pm & had plenty of shade. Nice, quiet area! Ashley W.

55Lots of grass and shade. They left fresh water and a tub of toys. My boys had a great time just sniffing and running around. The neighbors did have a dog that was in their front law without a leash, but the dog went inside and did not approach my dogs while we left. We would definitely come here again! Meghan A.

55This yard was great for my reactive pup. The fence is super strong and tall so even when she heard another dog very briefly, she was able to continue playing. Lots of areas to explore and amenities offered by the host. This place is a little ways from my home but because I felt safe with my pup there, we will definitely be back. Thank you, Shea for sharing your backyard with us! Carlene G.

55Great place, close to home (for us)! Our two larger dogs loved running up the hill and sniffing all the plant life and greenery. We'll definitely be back :)Amanda S.

55Our dogs had a great time! There was a section of the fence that had very small hole so be careful if you have a tiny dog who is an escape artist. We had large dogs so that was no worry. It was clean and spacious. The only challenge for us is that we have a dog who is interested in eating EVERYTHING and there was a lot of bird seed underneath the deck he kept going back to. Still I’d definitely recommend this spot, it was great for our fetchers.Patrice K.

FAQ about our Thornton 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Thornton 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 210 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 24 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.
