55This was our first Sniffspot experience and it was great! A beautiful location out in the county, clear indicators where to go, and a nicely mown area.
The fencing is substantial, and the area is a decent size, but allows your dog to be in sight at all times. We had fun trying out the agility equipment and playing with some of the provided toys. There’s also plenty of places to sit while your dog runs around.
My dog tired herself out and had a blast. She also enjoyed the complementary dog biscuit. We’d definitely come back!Erin O.

55This place was wonderful! It was super clean, with fresh water, loads of toys, activities, and seating. The view is incredible. My grand puppy is shy & has arthritis. I don’t have a fenced in yard so it was nice to be able to let her just run and play. And the host have bones to take home as a thank you. Becky S.

55My boy Astro is extremely friendly to everyone and we have our own large area to play, but we still love sniff spots! I like him to be able to explore new sights, smells, objects etc,. We have never gotten the chance to use agility equipment so when I found a sniff spot less than 10 mins from me with some equipment we had to try it. I found a couple poos and picked them up. There was water provided but since it was really hot out the water was warm, but we had brought our own. I did see chickens. Astro never even noticed them 😆 There is a picnic table with umbrella but otherwise it’s fairly open, so next time we go we will pick a day that’s not quite as hot. This is only our second sniff spot, but we are loving them!Tricia F.

55Safe, clean, large area to play! My granddog loved catching the balls and watching the chickens. Very easy to find. You just follow the orange cones back to the fenced in area. Beautiful views of the countryside and places to sit if you want. Water, poop bags, toys all on site.Mary M.

55We had a great time and the views are beautiful. Area was very clean. My dogs loved playing with all the toys and then take a break in the shade of the picnic table. They noticed the chickens but were more curious about checking everything else out than trying to figure out what they were. We will be back for sure!Cindy Z.

55A lovely view, a picnic table, and chairs for humans. And for the pups- a clean, large, secure, grassy space complete with balls, a chuck-it, frisbees, agility equipment, chickens to gaze at through the fence, water, and water bowls. Plus a milk bone treat as a welcome gift! What more could you want? We will return.Teresa P.

FAQ about our Durand 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.
