55Lots of space. Fully fenced and private. They were good about accommodating my foster dog who is both dog and people reactive. They put out fresh water for us and they have lots of toys for the dogs to play with 😊Misty C.

55This was a great backyard, nice and clean! We will def be back to enjoy! Two things to note- the gate to the right needs a better secure option as I was worried on trusting the string available (it might of been my mistake as well!) and there is a cat oasis kennel attached to the house, my dog enjoyed sniffing it and then said hi to the house kitters when they came out- and then went right back in the house when they saw Riley 🤣.
Can't wait to come back!Alissa W.

55This is a great spot. For the 2 legs it has always been clean and cared for but as far as the 4 legged beast is concerned it's perfect for running until she drops and barking as loudly and often as she wants. She loves chasing the people on the path and wonders often about those invisible cats. Thank you for allowing us to visit your yard we appreciate you.Diane B.

55My dog loves this spot. There are people to chase & bark at, cats in a window to wonder & whine about & so many smells to explore. She was totally exhausted by the end of our time.
I liked it because it is secure & the owners are gracious & discrete.
It could have a hose to wash off poop residuals but we will definitely go back. Thanks for the experience. Diane B.

55Sami's spot was very clean and very private. There were full water dishes, lots of toys and fun agility ramps. Camilla LOVED the treats that were available. She is extremely reactive so it took a while for her to relax due to barking from other dogs close by. In the end, she was able to zoom around and enjoy the freedom!Linda B.

55This spot is lovely! Fencing is extremely sturdy and full privacy, which is always important to me as we have pups who will search for possible escape routes. Host has been fantastic with communication and had some toys and treats set out when we got there. We will absolutely be back for more zooms. 🙂Kayla & Marlin S.

FAQ About New Brighton 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. 2% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the New Brighton area are 5 stars.
