55My friend and I brought our dogs to J&J’s Sniffspot and had such a great time! The space was thoughtfully set up—there was a cart with water, treats, and toys, which was such a nice touch. The highlight for our pups was definitely the mud wallow—they had an absolute blast playing in it! We left with two very happy (and tired!) dogs. Highly recommend for a fun and safe off-leash adventure!Cheri K.

55Our dog is very reactive so it’s hard to take her to public parks and trails. It was so nice to be able to let her explore and get some energy out without worrying about running into any other dogs! The spot was quiet, clean, and beautiful. Leah S.

55This place is huge! More than enough space for my dog and definitely left her tuckered out for the rest of the day! Extremely clean and well kept. We did run into some wild birds but I was expecting she'd stumble onto something out here! We arrived to a fresh bowl of water and stocked treats which was a super nice touch, as well. This is roughly an hour from me and is definitely worth it. Oli and I would love to come back! Brooke B.

55Wow! This was our first visit to a sniff spot and it sure set the bar high! This is a beautiful, clean, and large property with tons of field space and trails. The trails are grass, dirt, and/or wood chips. I didn’t see a single pile of dog poop and we walked all over everywhere multiple times. Epic fetch/frisbee field! My dogs even enjoyed exploring the small piles of wood chips along the woods. There were plenty of areas to remain in shade while walking the field, too. The host came out to greet me upon arrival and was super friendly. So glad we went! Meagan C.

55J & J’s was fabulous! Just as advertised, and we were very lucky with the weather. They have signs to help guide you to the right place, and the property was maintained beautifully. It was so great to have an option to go off-leash & let the dogs explore.Megan R.

55My shepherd absolutely loved getting a chance to stretch his legs in the massive open field! The trails and grass were all nicely kept and there was a bowl full of fresh water waiting for us as well. Will definitely be back with some of our other dogs 🤗Alyssa H.

55Can’t recommend John and Jodie’s place enough! Tons of both open space and wooded trails for your pup to run around and explore. Our dog happily rolled around in a mud puddle to cool off, so we really appreciated their offer to use their hose! :)Courtney W.

55Milo had a blast running in the giant field and getting to sniff all of the plants! The wooded trails were also very nice as it added some scenery to look at and some new smells from all of the wildlife. Safe to say we will be back! They were also kind enough to leave out some treats and water for my pup :)Sofia K.

55Great private spot that is huge! We were looking for a spot to watch the eclipse with our 2 dogs - 1 pup who is quite fear reactive. The owners set up a little seating area on the far, far end of the enormous field, with an ice chest that had cold bottled water, a citronella candle, some dog treats, and a water bowl. It was absolutely perfect for what we were looking for. We didn’t encounter a single other person! Thanks John and Jodie for your thoughtfulness and allowing us use of your terrific property!!Barbara K.

FAQ About Thompson 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.

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.
