55What an amazing property and hosts! So scenic and relaxing and so much space for the dogs to run free. They even had fun meeting the horses. It was very relaxing sitting on the hill watching them run around and explore. Could not have been a better afternoon with the pups! And Roy is a gracious, highly communicative host. He was leaving as we were wrapping up and the whole family waved on the way out. We'll be regular visitors. Highly recommend to anyone with active dogs that just want to run free.Michael X.

55My 1st "Sniffspot" This phenomenon is all new to me, leasing your yard ... lovely concept. This is spot is nice, spacious, and well kept for the most part, still lots of poop around. My pup enjoyed sniffing out the scents. They did mentioned the un-fenced pool in their post, I did not remember. My pup was curious about the pool to the point of my concern. There were plenty of toys scattered throughout the yard. We did bring our own, but did come across a frisbee that she enjoyed. This spot is a little over 20 minutes from us. I was a bit scattered brain with the entrance, parking, and exit (with coffee). Not sure if entrance is motion sensored, or monitored, gate swings outwards, the exit does however, have a remote button hanging from keypad box. Follow instructions, when entering swing to the right, into the circle, see sign "guest parking" I would visit again.Teasingly T.

55Very clean, and so peaceful and spacious. I was having such a great time I completely spaced on pictures of my pup (I know, I had one job) but she had the absolutely best time! No gaps, very secure fencing. My baby enjoys sniffing the shrubbery on the fence line, if yours is overly curious of plants and nature - do beware of any thorny plants or cactus. There wasn’t a concerning amount at all though, and we had no issues at all with letting our baby explore. The host was quickly responsive and kind, and made the whole process easy and very enjoyable. :) Heaven B.

55Beautiful, fully-fenced spacious property. Mary was very kind to leave us water, poop bags and toys to play with. My two pups had a blast running around and chasing each other and husband and I sat by the pool, took in the views and read our books :) Will definite return soon! Anastassia S.

55Mary’s home was perfect for our 3 boys! So, so much space for them to play fetch and explore. No other dogs seen or heard so it was 10/10 for us. We will definitely make plans to return soon. daniela k.

55We scheduled this last minute and the host was responsive. We enjoyed the open space and found multiple balls to play with. Very quiet and peaceful. The pond was dry this time of year but we played in the bottom. We also enjoyed the horses that happened to be there. Rebecca K.

55MJ's was great! Very communicative property owner. We were running behind and it was easy to keep MJ looped in about how far we were from arriving. Once there, the place was perfect for our two active dogs to roam free. One of our dogs is reactive and we are working on it but in the meantime it is wonderful to let them roam off leash. Great Sniffspot experience and we will be back. Amy G.

55We had a wonderful time at the Sniffspot. The host was incredibly communicative and our pups had a blast! There was a nice tree for shade when they needed it.
As you pull through the gate, after the driveway opens you’ll take an immediate left to park. We walked up to the pond and it was a great place to keep an eye on our 4 pups as they frolicked around.
We will definitely be back! brittany M.

FAQ About New Braunfels 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.
