55It is so great to have a Sniffspot not too far away from Portland! Thank you Bud for sharing your yard with those of us not fortunate enough to have one of our own. The dogs are unable to see through the wooden fence so it minimizes the level of distraction. We could hear neighbors, including kids playing basketball, which usually triggers my dogs but they were okay with it. There are a couple of Adirondack chairs where we could relax while the dogs sniffed around. Bud provided water, a bowl and poop disposal items. The dogs had a great time. The only thing I’d note is that there’s a short segment of fence where a dog could crawl under. Mine didn’t attempt this and they have good recall so it wasn’t an issue for us, but if you have an escape artist, just be alert. Kristin H.

55We had traveled to Maine from Florida, and our Eddie is a high energy whippet. Needless to say he needs to run. Buds backyard worked great for Eddie to have fun and wear him out. Easy check in, very accommodating, clean yard, with dog toys. Would certainly go back again. DianaKen G.

55Thank you so much, my dogs are so worn out and happy! The host provided toys and water (which was definitely needed —we did a lot of running around!) I had to keep an eye on my little dog because she’s an escape artist and there was one small spot she probably could have squeezed herself under. But other than that, perfection! 😁Shayna O.

55My dogs had the best time at Bud’s backyard! We loved that there was water available and plenty of tennis balls. I brought two balls from home but my dogs wanted nothing to do with them & really enjoyed the tennis balls and frisbee there. Bud’s yard is beautiful, fully fenced, and well kept. We can’t wait for another visit to Bud’s yard!Colleen Y.

55Had a great time here again today. Bud fixed the part of the fence that might serve as an escape route for some dogs. This is a terrific spot. Thanks for sharing your yard! Kristin H.

55Finley loved Bud’s back yard! There were plenty of tennis balls and lots of space for Finley to play as well as water, poop bags and nice seating options. Finley got all of his energy out in a safe, clean and well fenced environment. We will definitely be back!Chiara B.

FAQ about our Gorham fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
