55Very cute yard perfect for a game of fetch. Only time I saw another dog was when one walked by. I didn’t realize it was supposed to rain and the host left an umbrella out for me! There’s the tiniest little space in the fence that they did a good job blocking with a stick. My dog checked it out a couple times, but couldn’t figure out why she wouldn’t fit through it lolDelia K.

55This was my dogs first experience of being off the leash and running freely and she loved every minute of it! Of course she found a spot near the gate where the fence bottom wasn't down all the way, and probably would have tried to get out if I wasn't there, but all in all it was a very good first visit! Besides checking everything out we played fetch with a ball and before you knew it, it was time to go. I didn't see a water faucet, but I wasn't looking to hard, next time I would like to know exactly where it is and if I need to bring our own bowl. Chrys A.

55we got lost on our first visit, OUR FAULT for not paying attention to the given advise. Don't plug in the address and expect to get there! But our pups were over the top happy to have new, cool, places to explore. And the chickens were accepted by the pups. No problem there. Carol M.

55The owner was very nice. She had opened the gate prior to our arrival. I just didn't notice and couldn't figure out how to make the yard secure! A quick message and turning around cleared that up. The chickens didn't care about our dog at all. There was some balls to play with and a lot of wild areas to sniff at things as well as some open areas for running and ball throwing. Our dog had a lot of fun.Sonja S.

55The spot can be hard to find but well worth the effort. It's important to secure the front access fence given the nearby train tracks. That said, this is an awesome place! It's really great for both small and large dogs. There is plenty of room for your pooch to run and safely wander. There is a chicken coop which at least our medium sized dog found very amusing. We will definitely be back! Joseph W.

FAQ about our South Saint Paul 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.
