55Beautiful clean fully fenced backyard with lots of fun stuff all around! Our dog was in such a trance running around looking at everything he paid no mind to the neighbor dogs who were quickly let out and back in which took us by complete surprise because he is very reactive to other dogs. We enjoyed the beautiful day outside today and are thankful for the opportunity! We will be back to visit again soon!Krystal S.

55This yard is outstanding. It is large enough for obstacle training, is doggy clean, mother nature is everywhere and inviting to sniffy ones.
I will be back. It is a 45 min drive for me but well worth the visit. Thank you to a lovely host🐕.Teresa R.

55I took my dog back for 2nd visit. The space is open, interesting, relaxing and clean. Trees, grasses, bushes, sticks, water, toys,
chairs, shade, sun.
Tessdog started talking in the car as I pulled around the corner. She knew where she was..."loves it".

55Julia was a wonderful host - the yard was massive and had lots of toys and even a couple of agility jumps!! She was so thoughtful and set out a water bowl and a puppy pool for our doggos, who promptly wore themselves out and had the best time!Sarah L.

55Our dogs had such a good time, especially our prone-to-escaping husky who rarely gets to just run and run off leash. The pool was also appreciated by our Shepherd. It was lovely to give them some time and space out of the city to just play in the grass!Kate B.

55Our dogs loved visiting this spot! It was clean, spacious, and fully fenced! They loved checking out the kiddie pools and using the agility equipment set up (especially the tunnel). There was a neighbor dog barking next door but there's a fenced off garden along the fence line that prevented our dogs from getting too distracted by it, perfect! Thank you again! Allison T.

FAQ about our South Elgin 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 can I find dog agility parks in South Elgin?
There are 21 dog agility parks in the South Elgin area. The most popular dog agility park is The Country K9 Cottage. You can browse all of our dog agility parks here.
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.
