55Shelly is a great host - kind, personable, cheerful, overflowing heart for dogs - and a big believer in dog rescue. Their farm is a perfect run for an hour for my two young coonhounds, breaking up a ten hour road trip in a way that ensure fun and the right kind of tired in the car.
Highly recommend. Mike K.

55Very friendly host. Lots of gated areas that are fully fenced in and slightly different. I have a reactive dog and it was great to let him burn energy stress free of other dogs and people. My other dog (hound) loved all the new areas to sniff. They both loved playing seek with us in the hay field (lay in the grass). We will definitely be coming back!!Amy M.

55This place was great and our dogs loved it! Shelly was also very nice. They have different pastures but we stayed inside of one and it was more than enough for our dogs to run around. They saw some horses for the first time and liked one of the dogs the owner has! Alicia T.

55Absolutely LOVED Shelly's place!! She was very accommodating and EXTREMELY nice 😊 My grandpup celebrated her 2nd birthday here today and Shelly not only had a pool out for her but she gave her & her mommy a party gift AND made her a doggie cupcake!! So very thoughtful of her! Her yard was absolutely wonderful and there was so many areas to explore and let lilo run.. very safe to! Your pet can wonder her yard or you can take your pet to numerous areas which are all gates and fenced as well. We loved the pond area, very 😊 We look forward to bringing lilo back, that's for sure!!

55Shelly was absolutely amazing! Our dog had the BEST time. Everything was so secure and easy to navigate, and Shelly provided water, toys, literally anything we could have needed. There were poop bags located in several spots attached to the fence, which was great. Cooper didn’t get bored, there was so much to explore and and SO much room to roam. This is a great spot to work on recall with younger dogs who are still learning. We’ll be back!Nissa R.

55If I could leave 10 stars I would. By far the best spot for the dogs to run. A beautiful drive out there and the property is gorgeous. Sherry and her husband are very nice people. They gave the dogs a goodie bag which they loved. Awesome place!Heather R.

55My dogs thought they got a preview of Heaven! The property is entirely enclosed, (they cannot get out!) with different areas sectioned off but open to each other. The entry area where the house is located, A HUGE field, another large area with a chicken coop, and a winding path between the workshop and other storage buildings. Enormous trees! I mention these b/c the dogs were allowed to run and explore thru all! They had such joy running in the open field, checking out nooks and crannies by the workshop, smelling the incredible country air. Their excitement and happiness was over the moon. Shelly is also one of the attractions, extremely knowledgeable about dogs and a great hostess. From the minute she greets you, you feel welcome and at ease. She loves dogs and they can feel it. Mine want to see her again soon! She has created a very special place and we feel lucky to have experienced it, dog and human alike. Can't wait to go back!Jean H.

55My dog and I had such an amazing time! Within mere minutes of exiting vehicle the peacefulness of the property washes over you and we both relaxed. Really, the property and hostess Shelly deserve a separate category of awesome :) The fencing is so secure and I have never felt comfortable with my dog exploring off leash and out of sight until our time here. I was concerned when pulling off of the road to entry road when seeing horses in adjacent field, because I thought if I can see them my dog will surely react when seeing or smelling them. But she did not exhibit any acknowledgement, which indicated how secure she felt in the environment. Was a delightful respite in our travels. There was ample water available and my dog took the liberty of quality testing each bowel lol. Will absolutely return, thank you Shelly!Lexie L.

55This was such a great experience! Shelly is so kind and welcoming and even gave us the cutest gift bag. My dog had a great time exploring all the different areas. The fencing was secure and I felt comfortable letting him run free. There were horses, dogs, and chickens all safely behind fences that added to my pups enrichment. I’ll definitely visit again.Roni I.

55Shelly is a great host! There are lots of different environments for dogs to check out - open fields, barns, flower beds. Your pup can totally relax off leash and sniff to their heart’s content. Well worth the hour drive for me and my anxious dog. Elizabeth L.

55Absolutely loved it! Couldn’t be more happy. We live in an apartment, so Asher doesn’t get much off leash time. Being here was the perfect way to tire him out and give him loads of freedom! Shelly was extremely nice and welcoming, she even gives you a gift bag on your first visit! We will definitely be back in the future. Thank you, Shelly!Kelly D.

55What a great experience! An abundance of room for my Dane to stretch his legs and sniff until his hearts contentment. Lots of toys about to play with, his favorite was the tug rope. Kingston absolutely adored Mrs. Shelley and was not very interested in leaving.
There were other dogs on the property but they were secured inside the house and were not a distraction during our visit.
I really enjoyed it as well. I felt at ease to let him roam free without having to micromanage everything like I do at the dog park. It was an hour drive for me, but so worth it. I will be returning every chance I get.
P.s Shelley provided us with a welcome bag with lots of goodies!April C.

55Shelly's Sniffspot Space is so amazing and I did not think it possible to appreciate more, but after our last visit am sooo appreciative of her safe, secure and just absolutely wonderful property/layout. Completely fenced property, gate access (no surprises pulling in unannounced 👍) and multiple fenced pastures are such peace of mind. Have been here a few times with my spezial GSD and completely trust the experience, care and consideration of Shelly with the safety and comfort (threshold levels) of dog, and really all.
This visit brought my new dog. Has been a few weeks of working with him and three weeks ago welcomed him into home. My little 'wild man' :) As he is adjusting to new schedule and environment, it has been very structured and managed. We definitely play many times in a day, but until yesterday he has not had freedom of off leash to explore and play. And did he ever lol. Few agility equipment pieces he loved, the tunnel and, not sure the term but, a-frame. Evident he blew off some steam, as that evening and still this morning he is sleeping with a doggie grin. Look forward to visiting again!Lexie L.

55Took our grandpup lilo here again to enjoy the wide open space! She even got a gift which was very cute & useful. We have been coming here for a couple of years now and absolutely LOVE it! The owners are always friendly and lilo loves the huge fenced area where she can release all her extra energy 😊 I highly recommend this spot 👌 Mandi L.

55This spot is incredible! So many different places for dogs to explore and it’s so open! Our husky wore herself out within an hour running up and down the fields. The host, Shelley was so friendly and provided us with everything we could ever need. If I could give this place a 10 out of 5 stars I would, it’s just that great!!Kara W.

55My dogs had a great time today! I loved how there were different fenced off areas so if we needed to shift around to get out of the way we could. They were so happily tired when we got home they conked out for most of the afternoon. Alison M.

FAQ about our Suffolk fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?

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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
