55The big yard was perfect for a nice game of fetch - plus plenty of things to sniff around and explore. There was a nice spot for me to sit and a clean water dish for my dog with a spigot to replenish. The yard was clean and it wasn’t even muddy despite having a bunch of rain that morning. We will be back for more fetch!Larae B.

55The space is beautiful. It did seem like we came at a bad time because the neighbors were doing yard work, so it was a bit noisy. Louis still enjoyed sniffing around by the water. We will definitely be back.Mackenzie F.

55It was nice to finally see a new Sniffspot in Detroit so I don't have to drive as far to find a worry free place where my dog can roam and play with her toy. She was very accommodating and we had fun!Mikala C.

FAQ About Detroit 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 Detroit 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 412 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 660 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.
