55This is a wonderful spot. There are several large fields and 30 wooded acres with trails. My two dogs played in one of the fields for 2 hours and we did not see or hear any other dogs. We did see some cows who mooed at us but they were far enough away that my reactive dog was not triggered by them. We walked briefly in the woods but the trails are currently unmarked so we decided to wait until they get a chance to map the area. There was mention of bear cubs in the area so I had my dogs wear their bear bells. We will definitely return-this is a great spot for me to get away with my dogs in a way that is relaxing for me and fun for both dogs. The owners were very friendly and quick with information during the booking process. Sharen M.

55Barry met us right on time and we had a great experience. The property was large, private and well-maintained. Barry was very friendly and helpful. As a bonus, it was much cooler in Union than in other places in CT so on a hot day it provided a nice respite. We'll definitely go back. Thank you!Kristin H.

55We had the best time at Nancy and Barry’s farm! It was a magical time in the forest with moss, stones, trails and hillsides. It was so convenient on our way to Boston, just minutes off 84. They are prepping it to be a “super sniffspot” so there was a bit of mud to the trails so you may want to wear hiking boots. Plenty of space for us to feel safe with our dogs off leash and the trails are away from other animals, but no fencing that we saw (except the fencing enclosing their domestic animals). I think more fenced areas are coming. Thank you Nancy and Barry, you two are a delight!David A.

55Owner greeted us warmly and seemed genuinely happy to host us. Space was perfect-shade/sun, grassy/flat, interesting areas along edge for good sniffing, water/pool for pooch, poop bags although I brought our own, poop bin outside play area which I liked. Dogs loved it and so did I. Our first Sniffspot experience and definitely not our last. Beautiful way to start morning (9:30a-10:30).Tamara R.

55This is an amazing Sniffspot! It’s the best one I’ve been to, in fact, and I’ve visited several in New England. There’s a lovely, well-maintained area for just running around and playing. It includes a hose, a kiddie pool and poop bags. The pool was much appreciated on the warm summer day we visited. The entire space is fenced, and three sides of the yard are additionally buffered by thick vegetation so it’s nearly impossible to see any neighboring properties or their pets. We didn’t hear any other animals while we were there except for a couple of barks from the owner’s dogs when we first arrived. There’s a separate agility field (also completely fenced) which is great if you need a place to practice or don’t have your own equipment. Jessie was responsive to my messages and I had no issues finding her place. It’s a gem! Thanks Jessie! Kristin H.

55We visited JJ's yard today and the dogs had a blast! They chased toys, ran all over, and jumped in the kiddie pool to cool off! The yard was immaculate and the fencing super secure. My smaller dog has escaped from other parks, and explored the entire perimeter without success! It was so nice to let the dogs run and play without worrying about other dogs like when we go to public dog parks. We can't wait to come back!Lori S.

FAQ about our Union 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Union area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 165 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 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.
