55A HOT Day—Pink Pony was able to switch us last-minute to an earlier, shorter time so our girl could still get some exercise and sniffs before the heat set in—easy in and out and now SHE’s been out all day as a result . . . success. Rick W.

55This is our all time favorite SniffSpot to. Ring our two dogs! They have the best time and come home exhausted and happy!! Our host is soooo considerate. There was a huge dog pool as well as a smaller one with crystal clean water as well as a few pails of clean drinking water. As for the four legged guests, there are comfortable rocking chairs and chaise lounges in the shade, accompanied by two cold sparkling flavored cans of water. The grounds are safe, free of debris, and totally fenced in. If we could, we’d bring our fur babies all the time to the Pink Pony. Thank you so much!!Debra H.

55My dogs loved to sniff around at all the different animal smells and were tired out before the end of the hour. The toys and treats were perfect. The pools were great as well! My big dog wasn’t sure about the donkeys and horse but it was easy to keep him away from them. I thought they were sweet as can be! Very curious about us and not at all bothered by my dogs. Winter T.

55The pool is great! My dogs loved it. The availability of toys and treats is wonderful! There were some foxtails but we understand that they’re pretty bad this year. Thank you for being an option for us to take our dogs off-leash so they can just be… dogs! 💕🥰Sherry L.

55We went for the first time this afternoon. It was 95 degrees and my pup still had a great time sniffing all the wooded area and saying hi to the horse and donkeys (who are securely fenced and unbothered by a friendly greeting). There was fresh water, toys, treats, and a pool. More importantly there was plenty of shade for us both so we had a great time without overheating. Ill definitely make this a regular visit!molly h.

55Our first visit to Pink Pony Ranch; Annie & Cisco, our Scottish Collies, loved it! There’s a cool, forested area to explore; a big, grassy pasture for running & chasing balls; a pool to cool off in—tho’ I couldn’t persuade A&C to climb the stairs into the pool. They cooled off by stepping in a small basin the owner had thoughtfully filled with cool water for the pups to drink—or wade in. A great visit—we’ll be back! Fencing is secure, too!Virginia L M.

55This place was beautiful and my dog had a blast. Finding it and parking were super easy. Lots of shaded grass. Very good fencing for anyone who is worried about dogs getting out. Horses on property but there is wire fencing around the pole pens as well! Will definitely be going back. Maria L.

FAQ About Jacksonville 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.
