55Melissa's place is wonderful! Very clean, not muddy (in the summer anyway) and the pool was so much fun for our dogs. So many toys and amenities. The fence was completely safe and they loved bounding around the field. Our favorite sniffspot so far. Thank you all so much!Rhiannon C.

55Wow this spot was amazing, where to start? It’s huge - says five acres but felt bigger. There are three fenced fields. The fields are all fenced with cattle fence so a dog could get through the fence if they wanted to but it provides a good guideline. We didn’t hear or see any dogs or other animals or people. Didn’t see or hear any chickens. The fields are hay fields that are currently cut short so they were great for Toshii to sniff around and hunt for mice. Soba was able to sniff and play fetch. I would recommend wearing boots and long pants if the grass is growing. I assume the host will regrow the grass so you may want to check with them on the length for the future. We will definitely visit this spot again when we are in the area!David A.

FAQ About Rochester 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.
