55Lovely, thoughtfully designed space, as other reviewers have said. I don’t know what more I can add that others haven’t said. There are all sorts of fun things to do. Little Bailey the Yorkie liked digging in the sand the best.
We’ll go back when it’s warmer to try the water activities!Martha S.

55Adorable space! My dog is very reactive to other dogs and though there was a neighbor dog nearby, he is so calm and the fence is so tall that even my dog enjoyed herself. We’ll be backSydney H.

55This place was wonderful! The property is secure with all kinds of activities, for your pooch and yourself. The host definitely loves doggos and has thought of EVERYTHING when she created this beautiful space! ❤️❤️❤️ She even has photo op spots for pictures! I would have loved to have taken some pics, but being a beagle, all he cares about are the scents 😂
Thank you Gwen! Rhett loved to sniff and sure got a bunch of new ones today!Mindy M.

55This spot is amazing! Our two beagle mixes loved taking in all the sights and smells. They were fascinated by all the plants. By the time we left, they were so tired that they snoozed the whole ride home. There were plenty of fun activities, including puzzles and an agility walk, which we’ll have to do next time when we can stay longer. We will be back for sure!Anna S.

55If you have wanted to visit the Poochie Garden but haven’t yet here is your sign to DO IT!
My dog, Louie is socially selective and can often be reactive in the wrong environment. He felt so comfortable and was able to explore a surrounding that was not his own backyard. This was so rewarding for him and many ways.
The environment the Poochie Garden provides is so fun for the pup but also so peaceful for the pet parent.

55I heard all about Poochie Garden prior to visiting, and was still pleasantly surprised by this little gem!
Gwen is an impeccable host who arranged a welcoming and inviting entry. There are tables and chairs as well as shade, and she provided water for the humans and dogs..
Most importantly, Gwen thoughtfully arranged the space in order to maximize enrichment opportunities for dogs. There are tons of nooks and crannies for exploration, a dig pit, an agility walk, a cabinet with additional options, and so much more!
It's a shame I am just passing through. If I were fortunate enough to live nearby, we would return here again and again in order to help provide for my dog's enrichment needs.
Thank you so much for letting us visit!George P.

55I brought a friend’s dog to Poochie Garden, and Spike happily sniffed for nearly 45 minutes. We both enjoyed exploring the variety of plants and walking along the paths. Spike wasn’t interested in toys; he was all about sniffing. Gwen met us at the gate, explained the amenities, and showed us around her beautiful yard. I have a feeling we’ll be back. Sarah K.

55 My pups had a blast!
I take my pups out everyday, usually to the park. Since I feel bad always having them on a leash I’ve tried taking them to an off leash doggie park, but they stayed glued to me.
At our first visit to Poochie garden they explored every inch of it. They seemed so happy and curious about all the different little details especially the sand box and the muscari.
WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL place for curious pups like mine, we will definitely be returning!Kat G.

FAQ about our Little Rock 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Little Rock area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 42 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 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.
