*there was a dog in the distance, a German shepherd, he barked at us but he is hooked to a leash so he can’t get free so don’t worry, your pup is safe!* Morgan T.

55We had so much fun here! The pond is great, and my dog had so much fun swimming. We did see the German Shepard tied up outside the neighbor’s house, which for a reactive dog owner made me nervous, but my dog was having so much fun he didn’t even notice! There are also train tracks right next to the property so we did see a train go by, which my dog had never seen a train before but it ended up being NBD but just thought I’d mention it. Overall a great experience and will be back! Claire A.

55Beautiful property! It was really hot today, we walked around, but Bodie was not feeling like running around. I tried to get him to go swimming, but he wasn't feeling like it. We will definitely try again on a cooler day. Thank you!Dana B.

55What a wonderful place! My dog loves to swim! She was able to swim her heart out for the entire hour. She was so tired when she got in the car. It was very clean. I felt safe. I will be back again soon! Thank you so much for allowing my dog to swim in your pond! Ashlee T.

55Truly breathtaking dog oasis! There was a huge field for our dogs to run, and the cherry on top was the giant pond for the dogs to swim. Our two pups were SO happy to get to run and swim. The field was clean and the pond looked great. There was fencing to keep the dogs from exploring onto the railroad tracks to keep them safe, and the gravel road didn’t get lots of traffic so it was peaceful and quiet. Thanks for letting us come by!Mary C.

55The space was exactly described and was clean and wide-open for doggy fun! There were a few dogs in the surrounding area but from what I could tell they were behind a fence and there are areas where you dog won’t see them if it’s reactive. 10/10 recommend and we will definitely be back! Hannah W.

55This was our 2nd time here. The first time didn't go well through no fault of the host, but we decided to go for a 2nd try. HE WAS IN HEAVEN. LOL till a train. But he will get over that as we DEFINITELY plan on coming back. I don't think we will renew our dog park membership because this host offers MORE for our fun.Lisa S.

55We had a great time! We kept our dogs leashed because they don't have the recall skills yet but we wanted to explore how they would react around water, and they had a good time!Tyler H.

55This spot is very good for reactive dogs. We saw no other people or dogs. There’s lots of open space and a water feature. We brought toys and let the dogs fetch, run, sniff, and play off leash, which of course they loved. We will likely be back this summer!Zoe E.

FAQ about our New Albany 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the New Albany area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 160 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 12 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
