55Legend and I are still coming weekly. Playtime here is always a blast. Today there was one of his favorite toys, leaves. The picture on his hind legs he's catching them. The hosts are wonderful with having water and bowl for h towels or whatever else we need. Jen A.

55Legend had another great day playing. Even though it was hot he was a wild boy. The host has been wonderful and truly cares about your dog. She got out the pool since it was hot and Legend enjoyed nipping at the balls he put in the pool I think he thinks the balls are his sheep. Last review I accidentally hit yes for domestic animals but there wasn't any. Thank you for making a fun safe place to have my dog play. Jen A.

55Everything went well and my dog had a wonderful time! The yard was the perfect size for her to run and for me to be able to see what she was doing.?😊Bridget H.

55It was another great visit. I wasn't sure how long we would stay because of the hot weather but there was a pool and fan. Legend used to hate water but seemed to get over it. I encouraged him with treats and he was ok with wadeing in it. Then he really enjoyed splashing. He was so proud of himself as he sprinted on the lawn afterward. Jen A.

55Great yard! Had tons of toys, every time my dog went behind the trees he came out with a new ball! Lots of stuff to sniff and chew on.
Host provided water for my pup which was great!
Only annoying part was the neighbors dog barked at us for 15 minutes straight. But the host put up black mesh so the dogs couldn’t really see each other which was nice.Morgan B.

55My dogs love this place. My Aussie doesn’t want to leave. Today was muddy and they are so thoughtful to put out towels. My shepherd has storm anxiety and didn’t make a noise after last time we were here. This has made a huge difference to be mellow dogs for at least for a day. . Jen A.

55It was so much fun! My Aussie Legend is just coming off an injury and needed a place to test him. We played for a half an our and today he isn’t limping. So we will be returning very soon. It was very welcoming with a welcome sign and water. It was funny because Legend loves soccer balls but was overwhelmed how many they were. He was a little scared they were all together. It was hysterical. He did find one he liked and was happiest I have seen him since the injury. Jen A.

55Nikita's sniff spot is amazing for dogs. We recently adopted our dog Bear, from a rescue and he doesn't have a lot of chances to run around and do zoomies in our backyard as there's lots of distractions (other dogs, birds, cats, squirrels). This spot was great for him to be able to explore and run around off leash. He had a great time and we will be booking again in the future. Kaitlin C.

55This was our first visit ever with SniffSpot and it was amazing. The location is easy to find via GPS. Easy parking and fully and securely fenced in. The host provided some essentials such as waste bags, hand sanitizer and baby wipes which were super helpful. Lots of room for the dogs to run and sniff. Will definitely use again.Hilary P.

55Our three dogs had an absolute blast at this spot! They had so much room to run and chase each other, and they loved jumping and playing on the playground equipment. The yard was clean and well kept. The spot was easy to find and enter. Overall, we had an amazing time and will definitely be back!kaylyn c.

55Lots of fun and great sniffing place. We encountered a previous visitor’s dog poop which was unfortunate, but otherwise pretty clean. We had to keep the dogs from drinking out of yucky water that had been sitting in the plastic play equipment but I’m not sure that could’ve been prevented. Overall I would revisit!!Angie P.

55Stella and I had an absolutely amazing time as always!! It had been raining but it was honestly not even that muddy there. Stella was in love with the leaf piles too! This is such an amazing gem to take her to so she can run around and have fun outside and off leash! Emily B.

55Solid fencing with easy-use gate entry (can open even with hands full). Awesome space with lots to sniff. A bit smaller than I expected, but plenty of room for our two big energetic dogs. Loved all the playground equipment to get our dogs in, on and through! Will definitely revisit.Clayton W.

FAQ About Brighton 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. 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. 11% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Brighton area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 470 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 818 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
