55This was a great sniff spot! Great open grass area for fetch and wonderful woods with smells. It was relaxing knowing it was fully fenced and letting my pup sniff as much as he wanted. Definitely will be back here! Taylor C.

55Edward’s SniffSpot is absolutely amazing! There’s so much room for the dogs to run and play, and the pool was a huge hit…both my dog and my brother and sister-in-law’s dog had the best time splashing around and cooling off. The space is clean, safe, and perfectly set up for an energetic day of fun. Edward was so helpful, communicative, thoughtful, and friendly! He had water waiting for the pups to drink and had chairs out for us to use when we weren’t in the pool. We will definitely be coming back…highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic spot for their pups to run, swim, and play!Tori R.

55This spot is AWESOME! My friend & I with our 5 dogs had a BLAST! It was a perfect activity for a 97-degree day; we will definitely be back! The dogs had a blast jumping + fetching toys in the water. We did see the family/host a few times walking to their cars, & they were so polite and welcoming. This truly is a great spot - book it for you & your dog - you will love it! Lindsey J.

55Otto had a great time. He took a quick dip in the pond (wasn’t expecting him to jump in the way he did lol) and we explored the property. He was super excited running and jumping. We played tug and he loved every minute of it. I’d definitely come back again. Everything was clean and organized. Brian P.

55This is a beautiful spot with lots of interesting smells (according to my dog!). There is open space to play fetch, a wooded area to find some poop to roll in (one of my dog’s favorite pastimes), and a pond for the dogs to swim. Lyndsay was such a welcoming host. Since her profile asked that guests let her know about meeting other dogs, I informed her my dog is dog-selective. I shared more details with her, and Lyndsay said she had the perfect dog for a positive interaction. She was right!! I appreciate that so much. The dogs did a respectful sniffing inspection then were neutral to each other. Success!! In addition to the open space, woods, and pond, there is a little fenced in area with all the supplies you might need for your visit. This includes dog toys, bug spray, water, towels, and some chairs if you want to sit and relax. This is a great sniffspot and I will certainly return for more visits!! Elizabeth M.

FAQ About Glen Allen 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.
