55My dog and I loved playing in the big open yard. The fence is very secure and I was not concerned letting my reactive and very athletic dog off leash. The neighborhood was very quiet and the price is very reasonable. We will be back for sure. Thank you for sharing your yard!Dagmar K.

55Great yard! So much space. Oscar loved running and fetching. The fencing is superb, massive yard, great scenery, and lots of toys to play with. Walkers and their dogs, on the path along one side of the yard, offered great training opportunities for training my boy. Rebecca L.

55Hands down the best sniff spot! They have set up their HUGE backyard to be dog heaven! Poop bags line the fence, water bowls are laid out, and there is an abundance of available toys. My dog had a BLAST!Caitlin D.

55My dogs had a great time exploring this giant sun-dappled yard. Diya investigated every inch of the perimeter, and the yard held her interest for the entire hour. Wiley, who is 12, found multiple nice spots to relax after he finished making his own rounds. A really pleasant space, with secure fencing all around. The location was easy to get to as well.Michelle O.

55A great spot! Huge yard that’s big enough to let the dogs run all-out with a nice mix of shade and sun. If you have a dog who explores the nooks and crannies, there are some burrs, so watch out! (For most dogs that won’t be an issue at all). Already looking forward to our next visit.Charity P.

55We love this spot! So much room to run around and sniff. And the owner always leaves fresh bottles of water out for the pups - even when it’s freezing. Really appreciate this as most places have taken away their water source now that it’s winter. We come back every week!Betsy H.

55Wonderful space. It’s huge and there are poop bags available throughout, plus a station near the entrance with water and various toys. The host is also quick to respond and was very understanding/kind about a last-minute change.Kathi H.

55My mom took me here so I could practice my off-leash recall. There was so much space to stretch my legs! I got to play hide and seek behind some really cool big trees and play soccer and fetch too. There was water when I got thirst and so many places to sniff. I love sniffing the fence line and boy did this place have a lot of fence to sniff! I hope I get to go back soon! Mom said I did pretty good listening to her...even when I was distracted by the traffic noise or people riding bikes on the trail. I even got to see my aunt and uncle at Forgotten Star Brewery afterward. Sue M.

55Appreciate that the host always leaves out jugs of water and stainless steel bowls for the pups (and has bag dispensers along the fence in case you need). Leanne S.

55Wow! This place is fantastic, and Tony thought of all the details--a water spigot that runs when the dogs put their heads near it, bowls, waste bags and receptacle, and a gloriously huge fenced-in, shaded yard with toys and agility equipment. We'll definitely be back. Cheryl G.

FAQ about our Scandia 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Scandia area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 196 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 20 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
