55My sweet boy LOVED this untethered playtime!! I absolutely adore seeing him run as fast as he can and he did not disappoint here. My goodness!! lol 😆. He played so hard here that he was completely exhausted when we left. Plus, he fell in love with the red large ball onsite and play with it the entire time. I love that!! Thank you so much to the host for sharing your beautiful property. Prell and Tony t.

55This is our favorite Sniffspot! My dog has plenty of room to run around, he can lay in the kiddie pools, and they have everything we need to keep him watered and cleaned up before heading home.

55Our 2nd visit was great. I put some water in one of the kiddie pools and, between that and digging a hole in the dirt to lay in, she had a wonderful time!Meg G.

55Our 4-year old Goldador and his Bernadoodle friend had a blast. It was great to be able to give them their own private fenced in area to run off some energy and enjoy freedom. Fencing was very secure and the property is well-maintained. Loved it and will definitely be back!Mary L.

55We drive about 20mins to come here and it’s worth it! Our dogs love being able to run around and play fetch with the balls he has provided. They are tired girls by the time we leave. Kassandra E.

55After a little confusion as to which gate we could access the yard, we got in and it was fabulous! Mona spent most of the time sniffing but she did get some running time too. It's a beautiful location and super clean. We'll definitely be back!Meg G.

55I wrote a review for this sniffspot when we first went, and we can’t stop going! The babies love it. They played in the pool today and had the best time. Lots of room to run and play (and splash!) :-)Ari W.

55This spot was great! It was awesome to be able to move my pups to one of the different pastures when my older girl had sniffed the entirety of the first one we went in, then she had a whole new world to sniff while her brother kept running laps with his ball. The grounds were super covered in dew this morning so it was great to be able to rinse off their feet at the water station before loading them back in the car. Another spot I wish we were closer to so we could make it a more regular visit but so pleased to have it relatively nearby for weekends. Thanks so much!Kristen H.

55This was a lovely sniffspot! I brought my 3 dogs plus my foster to do intros in a neutral environment, and they loved the whole area. So much space, so many tennis balls and shade. There are kiddie pools for when it’s hot, and I know my dogs will love it when we go back in the hotter weather. Directions were very clear about parking, and it was easy to find. We will be back for more play time! :-) 🐶🐶🐶🐶Ari W.

FAQ About Bradenton 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.
