The set up for a themed picture is also a nice touch.
I pups love their time here. We will continue to bring them back.
And thank you again, Julie for seeing that our Pitbull mix is sweetheart. Michelle G.

55Julie is amazing! She greeted us, played with the dogs and gave them pup cups! My pups loved this spot! There is a seasonal photo shoot spot, toys, a scooper and bags for cleanup. Both dogs jumped the small agility course she’s put out and even learned to go through the tunnel. So much fun!Cheri R.

55Our 3 year old American Bulldog/Pitbull mix and 1 year old Dalmatian absolutely loved it. Julie had everything we needed for a wonderful visit. Plenty of water for drinking after running and jumping in all the open space. Our pups enjoyed the top of the tunnel and were very interested in the seesaw… maybe next time they will make it all the way to the other end😁.
We also really appreciate Julie giving our American Bulldog/Pitbull mix a chance where many others shy away from this breed. Julie even came out and played fetch with both of them and watched as they played with the jolly we brought.
Our pups visit ended with a nice pup cup treat from Julie.
Our pups absolutely loved it and didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be back!
Thanks again Julie!! Michelle G.

If your dog needs a fully fenced in area to run free this is a great option for you. If you have any questions about if this Sniffspot would work for your dog, message the host - they’re awesome!

55The area was great, the neighbors were nice, the dogs were friendly in the neighbors yards, and the views around the property were beautiful too. My dogs had a great time. My only worry of the day were the thorns that are everywhere. I had to pick some out of my dogs paws which were noticeably painful when they got poked. So a minor suggestion would be to eradicate those thorny plants. Other than that this was a great Sniffspot and we would love to return. Jamie F.

FAQ About Madera 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.
