55Our boys had a wonderful time. Lots of space for 2 big labs to run to their hearts content and we appreciated the water snacks and little shelter. We highly recommend and will definitely come back here again. Jen G.

55We had an excellent time at this lovely spot. The fencing was top notch and there were several special touches: double gated entry, water and towels for muddy paws, trash can for poop bags as well as comfy chairs for the humans. Would absolutely recommend and I'll be taking my dogs there again! Christin H.

55We visited Madra Training Field for the first time with our dog, Skye. The video on how to find the field was a helpful idea and appreciated. It was an absolutely beautiful day and Skye had a great time running around in the field chasing balls. The field was on a hill so he was tired out by the time we left. The shelter with chairs, water, dog treats and toys provided were great amenities. Thanks again!Jean D.

55This was absolute heaven for my city-dwelling beagle! Lots of space to run, trees for shade and wonderful scents for him to follow.
Rebecca’s instructions were spot-on and she also shared a YouTube video of how to get to the SniffSpot within the farm. There were water bowls and fresh water, as well as an enclosed area in case the weather turns and various handy items (bug spray, sunscreen, balls, treats, etc.). The fencing was secure and the space was very clean.
The play area is on a gentle slope, so it provided stunning views of the surrounding pastures. Highly recommended! We definitely will be returning! ♥️Michele A.

55We had a great time! Tons of room for the dogs to run around, plenty of water In the shed and a few balls for them to chase. The hill was great to tire them out a little extra too :)Aaron E.

55The field was large and completely fenced. It had been mowed recently. The dogs enjoyed all the toys and the freedom to roam and explore. I loved watching them have a great time. The area was equipped with human seating. It is just a lovely place for all.Gail P.

55A fantastic location that was definitely worth the drive! The field was clean and it was a great weekend autumn escape - everyone in the family loved it. My dog sprinted up and down the hill the whole time and is now fast asleep! The host also left great treats, toys, and water :) Rona Y.

55The best place! We have rescue dogs in various stages of civilizing and this beautifully fenced area offers a secure place for some serious leg-stretching. Also some stimuli from other dogs but at a safe distance. Field was mowed, gates secure, water provided. Just a brilliant outing. Also pay for use of hot water wash stall and the 80# lab actually gets bathed.

55The perfect spot to let your pup roam. It’s well maintained, very scenic, spacious enough to have room to run but still able to keep an eye on your pup. The amenities are a lovely touch, and the fence is high and secure. Will definitely be back with my husky and other pups. Mackenzie C.

55My puppy loved exploring this sniffspot and was exhausted for the rest of the day, she refused to go back in the car and Aron was kind to help me get her in the car haha. My puppy doesn’t like the heat but there’s plenty of shade from the trees and she enjoyed laying on the grass after getting her zoomies out and would of slept there if I didn’t wake her up to go! Safe, fenced area with plenty of space to let your dog run/ explore, waterbowl was left out and friendly people Roseann E.

FAQ about our Boyds 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Boyds 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 364 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
