55The yard is a great size and very clean! The fencing is very secure except for the small gate in the front but you can pull your car close enough to mostly block it. They also offered treats, poop bags, water and a frisbee to play with! I can’t wait to bring Ellie back! Allison S.

55My dog and I really enjoyed our visit to this Sniffspot. There was ample room for her to run around, play fetch, and (of course) sniff. There were plenty of chairs for human mom to sit on; and water, treats, and poop bags available for the dogs. Everything was very clean, and as described in the listing. Would go back again.

FAQ About Albany 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.
