55We had an amazing visit this morning! Very private and had lots of space for my pup to run and play fetch! She even got into the tunnel and was able to use the agility equipment very well! Didn't think she'd go in but after much coaxing she got her nerve! Lol, yard was very clean and had extra toys which is always helpful and poop bags in case you forget them. I will definitely be booking again, thanks for having usTina G.

Frequently asked questions about Greater Sudbury dog park
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.
