55Huge yard, clean, and lots of grass! Host even put a kiddie pool out for my dog to use and a canopy for shade. Fence is secure but only a few feet high if your dog is prone to jump fences. There are chickens in a coop on the property and the next door dogs barked at mine through the chain link fence which could be an issue if you dog is especially reactive. Mine didn't seem to care at all since she was having so much fun. Hannah P.

55It was easy to find and we appreciated the off street parking. The yard was easy to access and very secure. I also really like that there's a tent for the humans to hang out under. The pups appreciated that there was plenty of shade from trees to hang out under in between zooming around after all of the tennis balls in the yard. Just note that there are neighbors and other dogs around that you can see through the fence if that might be an issue for you or your doggos. Megan G.

55If your dog likes to sniff - this is the place for you! Our shepherd/hound mix spent the whole hour with his nose to the ground exploring and he was so happy! The chickens were so fun, they’re in a very secure enclosure that your dog can’t get into. A perfect spot for natural enrichment or socializing!! Emily M.

55Nice yard, fully enclosed. The chickens are good practice if you want your dog to get some exposure to new sights and sounds. Elizabeth S.

FAQ about our Halethorpe 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.
