55My girls had so much fun roaming around this large play area!! My beagle would not even eat any treats or play with any toys because she was so distracted and fascinated by the large area of land she could run on!! Samantha T.

55The property exceeded all of our expectations! The fence was secure with no gaps and the yard was very clean. Both of our dogs had a blast chasing tennis balls, eachother, and exploring the very large field. The host happened to be outside when we got there and she was extremely nice and understanding of our rambunctious but sweet pups. We will definitely be back! 🙂Chelsea B.

55The absolute best! Upon entering the field, my dog stopped, gazed forward and, no exaggeration, she turned her head to me and flashed the biggest doggie grin I've seen yet. And the happy expression lasted the entire visit. The fence is incredible and lends such a feeling of security, mainly it's height and strength. It was so peaceful and pleasant and so cool to be able to do such long distance recall :) Lexie L.

55I was staying for a few days in a nearby area at a place with very limited walking/exercise options for my dog, so looked for a local Sniffspot and found this one. I initially had a few problems finding the entrance to the field (my fault for not following directions!) and Megan was very kind and helpful in pointing me to the right place when I reached out for assistance. Charlie enjoyed some great sniffing and trotting around the large, open field. I liked that it was easy to see upon entering if everything was clear and that there were no outside distractions like traffic, neighbors' dogs, or other animals. We are back home now so too far away for a return visit, but if I were in the area at another time I would definitely use this spot again. Donna S.

55This is a great, safe space! It’s huge so my three large dogs could all run around freely and there seemed to be a LOT of good sniffing. It was wonderful after a long car trip. The space was clean and had a nice sheltered area for humans 🙂. Sharen M.

FAQ About Emmitsburg 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. 4% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Emmitsburg 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 292 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
