55My senior pups had a great time running around at the Puppy park. There was lots of room for them to run. The neighbor dog was somewhat visible but I was able to redirect their attention. We'd love to come back!Oraly S.

55Lovely and quiet place to hang out with my dog, my friends, and their dogs. The place is clean and the tall trees blocked sunshine from us. The host Jessica was communicative and helpful.Paul Y.

55This was a great SniffSpot. It was quiet and wooded. It was not unbearable to hang outside in the unforgiving summer heat due to all of the trees! Water for the dogs is available. There’s a chair & bugspray for pawrents. My girl had a great time exploring. My escape artist tried to find gaps in the fencing but she didn’t find any! She was able to get under the deck, she found the spot that wasn’t covered by chicken wiring. I struggled a bit to get the fence gate open from the inside, but I eventually got it. Star loved the pool provider as well. This spot was as it was described. I wanted to check out a SniffSpot because I don’t feel comfortable going to dog parks. Here I could relax knowing my dog was safe to run around & explore. Thank you! Maggie A.

55This is the first place that has been actually conveniently located to UNC campus and such a helpful find!! She was super accommodating with my schedule. The spot does have a bit of a slope, but other than that it was a great place to play and has a “private” gate entry. Will definitely be back! Joline T.

55This was a great little space! There were lots of places and things for my dog to sniff! I also felt very safe in this location if you’re going there alone! Thanks for a great place to take my dog! ❤️Danielle H.

55Had a great time. It was much too hot to run, so the visit was more about sniffing than playing. Wear good shoes as the yard is a hill. Normal debris on the ground for a wooded spot. You will need bug spray, with the rain and heat the mosquitos will carry you away. Pauline C.

55My pups LOVED it! My hound kept sticking her head through the 4-5" squares in the fencing. She could definitely jump the fence if she had a mind to, but had too much fun exploring. We scheduled for late evening and it rained right before our time. Understandably, there were tons of mosquitos, I recommend being prepared for that. Also, good to know that you cannot sit in one place and have eyes on your dog the entire time. My dog has horrible recall and I'll have to bring treats next time. Awesome place. I highly recommend it! Pauline C.

55My dogs, Buffy and Watson, had an absolute blast at this location!! Buffy enjoyed playing fetch while Watson explored and sniffed to his hearts desire. Jessica left out toys, bags, bug spray, and there was access to water. I couldn't have asked for anything better for my furbabies! We will definitely be back in the future. Kayla H.

55Had more fun the second time. Great spot for running or hanging out. We used it for recall training because there is limited direct line of sight, plenty of sniff distractions, and my pup is getting so much better. We'll be back for sure!Pauline C.

55This yard was a great size for one dog, with grassy area and some wooded spaces great for sniffing. Despite having rained the evening previously, the yard wasn’t super muddy which was great. The mosquitoes were definitely killer but the bug spray was much appreciated. Bella seemed to be a little wary at first of the space but as she adjusted she has a lovely time! Sara W.

FAQ about our Hurdle Mills 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.
