Top Public & Private Dog Parks in Palmer, TX

This is a really cool spot with access to two creeks and ample area to hike around. We brought three poodles and they had a blast swimming and running. Fair warning: there is livestock all around this lot, so your dog needs GOOD recall. My boys have good recall and came back quickly, but at one point they jumped through the barbed wiring into the neighbor’s yard bc there was a mud pit. It was fine, but another dog might get stuck over there if they ran in. The owners have great communication and have a hose you can use as well.

This Sniffspot was excellent! The creek was beautiful and the host is responsive and accommodating. Me and my dogs will definitely be back!

Nice quiet place for pup to run off leash, peaceful and secluded. We enjoyed our down time there and will come again. Lots of great dog friendly restaurants in Waxahachie too! We went to Omar’s for Mexican on the patio afterwards- added surprise! 😃

Many accommodations and mowed paths very secluded. Host was very attentive. Great place to run free for a bit.

Loved our time here! Great brush for retrieves, walking paths, and plenty of space. The host was incredibly kind when I had questions about bringing my toddlers and even left out some dog + kid toys for us. We can’t wait to visit again, highly recommend!

I love this place!! Definitely need leashes and I need to work on recall but my dogs had so much fun

My dogs loved this spot. It’s a large open field with grassy paths, a few small wooded paths, and a large creek. Finding the spot was easy, the driveway was pretty rough and bumpy, parking was simple, and complimentary items were provided in the parking area. We forgot a water bowl but were thankful to see that a collapsible bowl had been provided for us. We enjoyed walking around the grassy areas before playing a game of “find it” where we threw a bumper toy into the tall grassy area for the dogs to search for. This was an excellent confidence building exercise for my insecure cattle dog puppy. Happy to report they came out burr free. We didn’t go into the creek but it was very large with some stone platforms. We could see cows in the distance past a barbed wire fence. The sniff spot itself is not fenced in as of 2/17/25 so I would only recommend bringing your dog here if they have a solid recall. There were chickens present at the spot, so if you know your dog has a prey drive I would alert the host so they can make sure to put the chickens up prior to your arrival. We were pleased with the amount of land as there are not many large properties available in the area and we usually have to drive at least 45 minutes to an hour.

Great area! My dog enjoyed being able to sniff around and tired himself out real quickly! Host was kind as well.

We absolutely LOVED this spot! :) plenty of stimulation for the dogs! And such nice and gracious hosts 💚🙏🏼 10/10 will be back again
