55It was his best yard visit yet and we’ve been visiting yards for years! I was a bit cold so needed to sit bundled up in the provided chairs and my usually clingy to his people dog, explored all on his own the whole yard! I realized he’s never been that far on his own from me and I was so proud of his confidence. Absolutely love how safe, clean and accommodating this yard is!  Bridget E.

55Absolutely amazing backyard! Our Great Dane was so happy to be enjoying some of this nice February weather exploring all this yard had to offer! We played hide n seek behind trees, had so much much room to run and he took advantage of all the sniffs. Can’t wait to come back. Bridget E.

55The space is really perfect. A space to toss the ball, a space to sniff curiously and a space to do picnicy hang out things. Doggo could sniff the whole fence line without a worry from us at all. 10/10 will definitely be back. Joshua F.

55My dog loved this SniffSpot! With an acre of fully-fenced yard to explore, she had more than enough room to get her sniffs in and zoomies out! A huge plus was the shade that the wooded area provided. We will definitely be back!Allison G.

55Wonderful spot! Spacious with a pretty wooded area, perfect for working on recalls and having a great woods experience in the safety of a fenced area. My pup had a ball sniffing through the trees and playing with all of the great toys. Maria has thought of everything - chairs, water, and bug spray for the people, fillable baby pools and a wide selection of toys for dogs. My dog loved it, I’m sure we’ll be back!Teri R.

FAQ About Jessup 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.
