55I’ve visited this spot multiple times and it’s great! A nice large, pretty yard with fences more than tall enough to prevent any pup escapes. Toys and agility equipment for the dogs + chairs for the humans!Kylie L.

55We love this huge yard! Not only do they offer treats and water but they have an agility course. This yard was so big that we got to throw around the football while our pups got their zoomies out. One of our favorite sniff spots.Mena S.

55We had a great time here! Our dog loved jumping the hurdles and doing the weave polls. There was so much room for him to run around and there was a lot for him to sniff. We will definitely be back. Thank you!Dee B.

55Awesome spot! The yard is MASSIVE with lots to explore. The jump and weave poles are a really nice touch as is the corn hole. The seating area is spacious and comfy. The incline wasn’t bad at all; I was able to easily run around with my dog. We’ll be coming back!Jocelyn J.

55Huge open yard with secure fencing. Nice seating area and well signed so you know you're at the right spot. Our pups had a blast. Did not have water but we booked extremely last minute so I did not expect the area to be prepared and we brought our own to fill the available bowls. The jumps and weave poles were a fun addition. We like going to different spots every time but we will probably break that streak and come here again. Definitely recommend Julie F.

55This is a great location, and would highly recommend coming here!
The space is open, safe, and well maintained. There are basically no distractions, which was perfect for our dog who feels the need to investigate everything. Daniel T.

55This SniffSpot is my favorite to go to in the area! My friend and I bring rescue dogs (one still in need of a home and the one I recently adopted) and they always have the best time. The yard is so spacious and the fence is secure/high enough that I never have to worry about my (sometimes mischievous) boy getting out. Kylie L.

55Rainy and wet (no control for the homeowner). This is our fav spot so nothing negative. We did not attend but that’s only because SniffSpot’s cancellation is 2 hrs prior (again, no control of homeowner) and it was already 1 hr prior and still raining. Cindy J.

FAQ about our Bethesda dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
