Leslie's 12 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Ann Arbor | Sniffspot
55Owner was very friendly and it was easy to understand where to park, the property boundaries, etc. Very nice spot for trained dogs to be off leash. My older dog has lost her tolerance for meeting new dogs so this was a great safe space for her. Plenty of room for my younger dog to run around and get tired, not too much room for an older dog to still make it around the property a time or two. Madelaine O.

55This is a great spot for dogs to run and explore. There's so much for dogs to interact with around the property; scents, objects, platforms, different terrains, it's a sensory wonderland for dogs!
We saw one dog 100+ ft away on a neighboring property but was no issue to avoid by simply going the other direction. I didn't explore the entire area because I was worried about accidentally wandering off property but my dogs had a blast in the parts we did explore. Lillian I.

FAQ About Ann Arbor 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.
