Frequently asked questions about Madison dog beaches

Are dog beaches safe?

While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a dog beach works for my dog?

Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them.
