55Perfect space for our foster dog to get off leash, have some fun playing, and work on her training! The yard was easy to find and although the gate stuck a bit when opening/closing, I just consider this extra security! Lol we could see and hear other dogs from the spot which was helpful in working on her reactivity training, as they weren’t close to us. There were loads of toys available and a raised cot that we borrowed to practice a place cue. There were lots of good sniffs for our girl, and nothing in the area that posed any risk to her at all. We loved it and will definitely return! Torin F.

55Super space! Extremely nice, grass was cut nice and low, the fence was nice, tall, sturdy, and safe. I didn’t feel afraid once about my puppy getting into trouble.
The ONLY thing is, if you’re going around this time bring bug spray! The area is really well maintained but the mosquitoes were out in force. Besides that, an amazing space. Max A.

55We loved this spot for off leash play and training time! The yard is secure and I love that it has a privacy fence to minimize outside distractions for my reactive dog. There was some construction going on, dogs barking, and a bit of garbage at the spot. But all things to be expected in a city sniff spot, and they didn’t affect our experience at all! Would love to visit again!Torin F.

FAQ about our Pittsburgh 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.
