55The Sniff Spot was a life saver for my dog & boyfriend - they both got in some "off leash" time, and the dog could decompress from a car commute up from Monroe! Very thankful!! Margie F.

55A great spot for my pup to run and play! The yard is fully fenced, with views of the surrounding yards. This was perfect to help expose my puppy to other sights and sounds while still having an enclosed space to keep her safe. We had a great time and will certainly be back!Jordann M.

55Great space to let the dogs run around! There was water, a place to put the used dog bags, and a bin of toys and treats. Thanks for hosting us!Kelsey R.

55What a lovely spot!! The yard was clean, with plenty of room for a good doggie romp! 😁 Toys, water, treats, and poo bags were available, and it was so peaceful. The little shelter dog I’d brought just loved it!! The wooden fence is solid, with gaps in between the slats, so it is possible to see another dog, and it’s 4’ tall. My own dog would’ve been just fine, as was this shelter sweetie; but I didn’t want to bring one of our bigger dogs, on the off-chance he/she might try to jump the fence (probably would never happen, but I’m extra-cautious with shelter dogs, whom I don’t know very well). Overall, I highly recommend it!! It’s such a nice yard, and Emily, the hostess, seems so very kind!Carolyn G.

55Fantastic spot that is easy on/off from the freeway in Madison. Great host who leaves out water, toys, and poop bags for use. We will use this spot whenever we are in the area. Thanks again!Matthew K.

55We both had a great time (I very much enjoyed the hammock). A neighbor's dog did come out for a while, causing mine to go nuts, but thankfully that passed after 10 minutes or so. We will definitely be back! Molly P.

FAQ about our Monona 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?
