55We’ve been here so many times and I can’t say enough good things about it. So much space, all of my dogs favorite toys we’ve originally found here. And she loves to observe what’s going on on the ranch - for my reactive dog this is a great training opportunity in a safe space. Sadie B.

55Today I took my dog for the first time. I hoped for being able to see my dog running freely without worrying about others. The experience was better that I could had anticipated, and I wish I would have discovered this place sooner. It is so clean and harmonious. Great for dogs and great for their owners. We will be back for sure! Isabel S.

55This was our first time using SniffSpot and our first time having somewhere safe and secure and private to let our reactive cattle dog pups run free in a large space. It was wonderful to see them run and play and explore freely off leash without worrying about them getting to strangers or other dogs. We were beyond pleased and our pups are beyond tired from all their fun! We even discovered a few new toys that our pups enjoyed from the selection available. Definitely will be back for more play and to check out the hiking trails! Thank you for having us!!!!Sammantha v.

55This place was so perfect! Achilles is a retired Military Dog (Belgian Malinois) who is so protective of me and his first parent, my husband, that taking him around other people and dogs makes us feel uneasy. Here we could privately and safely let him run full force, run with us too, in way more space than our yard at home has. It was quite windy but had Jennifer kindly given us a heads up (the wind out there gets cold). We opted to go for it anyways and bundled up perfectly. Achilles wore himself out in no time lol. Great way to spend his 6th birthday! The place was easy to book, easy to find and everything we’ve been looking for. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back!Sunny T.

55Dex had an awesome time here! We did all of his training and it was amazing being able to challenge him more without having any anxiety about him escaping or running into another anxious dog. Easy to access, totally perfect spot for some low key socialization for Dex too. It’s not often he gets to hear dogs and horses while safely exploring or doing place work. It is also roomy enough that it feels nothing like the yards he is used to — so an added challenge to relax in so much space. He wasn’t able to fully relax and play yet, probably because of the other dogs he was hearing, but I’m confident he will next time and that’s exactly the type of safe exposure I’m always looking for to train him. He’s from Ridgeway, CO, and it kind of felt like a mini-trip back home. So grateful for this spot! Will totally be back. Shanta L.

55We've been coming to Sunny Day Acres for almost 2 years now. We love it!! It's a drive for us, but the only SniffSpot where our two GSDs can truly be their happy selves--sprinting after balls, jumping in the pool, and tipping over the water bowls (then sprawling in the mud). ❤Abby V.

55It was a nice fenced area. When we arrived there was a dog in th agility area and I didn't have enough signal to contact the host. Luckily a few minutes after, they took him out and we spent the rest of the hour playing and just resting :) Yenifer R.

55We came out from the city to enjoy some open and secluded playing area for my dog. He loved the doggy pool and the abundance of tennis balls found in the enclosed area. It was his first time seeing an airplane fly so close to the ground and he was ecstatic when one flew right above us. Over all the spot was clean and the hosts assistant was friendly. I was curious about wether or not we could use the agility area, but hopefully next time we can use it by asking in advance. 5/5 would come again!Kevork M.

55The space was perfect for our dog to run around and smell. There was water and some old tennis balls to toss and a beautiful tree by a table/bench to relax and get some shade. They had a pooper scooper which we had to use cuz our doggie pooped almost immediately! Our dog doesn't get along with other dogs and even though there were dogs in other areas they were all kept in their spaces and our dog didn't seem to mind. It was worth the drive just so our dog could run around.Misty A.

55If you’re looking for wide open space, this is it! We loved the big fenced area and meant to go for some hiking, but had to leave early since it was close to 100 degrees and our pup was getting hot. We will definitely be back on a cooler day!
Just a heads up for potential visitors: our dog is a recovering reactive and doesn’t mind the sight/sound of dogs barking in the distance anymore, but if yours is stressed by that this may not be the spot for you. All dogs were securely contained or on leashes, so we had no problem!Mariana R.

55Absolutely wonderful! Very hot but the large tree offers some great shade! And there’s a picnic table! The dog pools are wonderful and 6ft fence is awesome and agility area as well with a 5 ft fence. Fresh water and there’s some artificial turf down when you enter which is awesome. Dogs had so much fun. So thankful this is here!! A hidden gem! Everyone that works there is super nice! Kerry L.

FAQ about our Lancaster dog parks
