55This was an amazing first time experience! Wasn't sure what was there so I brought water as it was really humid and hot. Did not need to bring it as there was some there. Definitely will be back on cooler days Shannon G.

55This is a beautiful property and the dogs loved having a place to run off-leash. We wanted to test recall with our daughter’s new rescue dog, as we’ve been hesitant to let her off-leash on our wooded cabin property for fear she would bolt and not listen. It was so reassuring to have a private fenced in wooded area to practice this. The owners provided everything needed for a very enjoyable visit. Roxanne M.

55This was our first visit and it was perfect. We have 2 ten- month old Bernedoodles and didn't know how they would be off-leash. The area was a mixture of trees and grass, the dogs had a great time exploring. Very well maintained and a safe place for the dogs to run and play. We will be back often. Kay J.

55This was amazing! It was my 1st sniff spot experience and we loved it. Lots of trails to explore, water for the pup, bug spray for all. Very thoughtful and me and my pup loved getting to be off leash without fear of another dog interaction. Katie B.

55My dogs and I had the best time today!!! The trails in the fenced in area were absolutely beautiful! My dogs romped and played to their hearts content. Even my 11 year old puggle was running and trotting around, which is rare for her - she’d rather be sniffing non-stop. Such a great morning and we look forward to another visit soon! Thanks so much!!Sheila K.

55Wow! The property is amazing! The yard is so well kept. They have trails for your dog to explore. They have a gazebo set up for us to escape the bugs in the evening hours. Bins of toys and even a cooler full of cold water for the dogs. Stacy is so kind and great with communication. The area is completely fenced in which i appreciated so much as someone with a reactive dog. A 10/10 location. We can’t wait to book again thank you so much! Tessa P.

55The benefits of a rainy day visit -
1. Cooler temps equals 5 X more Zoomies!
2. Puddles!
3. Soft turf for full-speed fetch!
4. Better chances of extending the visits!
5. A slightly different environment adds more engaging sniffs and exploration!
6. Less human noise such as mowers, motorcycles, etc.
7. Less mosquitoes!Tess V.

55My daughter and I brought our dogs here and it was a beautiful place for them to roam around and play off-leash. We don't have fenced yards, so this was amazing and we plan to meet there again soon. It was much larger than I had expected with many pathways and trees. We really appreciated all the signs with clear instructions, along with the fresh water and all the other amenities, like different places for us to sit and visit while the dogs played together. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome green space!Lisa K.

55This place is truly a sanctuary!
It’s what every dog deserves and this family has given it to us since my dog is so reactive to other dogs . There are no words that I could ever express my gratitude.💓💓Pauline E.

FAQ About Dayton 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.
