55I too have a greyhound who enjoys playing by herself in the horse arena. It is more suited to her personality. and I know she loves all the farm smells. The clean, sandy surface is very safe for her to race around like she does. We love coming out here in the country and then dropping by old town Sherwood for a cup of coffee and a scone afterwards . Very fun sniff spot!Jane L.

55 **huge open space** is a dream for dogs who love to run. Whether your pup enjoys zooming across vast fields or leisurely sniffing every corner, there's plenty of room to stretch those legs.Tracie S.

55My retired/rescue greyhound loves this place, it’s the perfect spot for her to run and romp in a safe environment without any other distractions. The arena is always clean and well maintained and the bucket of fresh water is really appreciated. We love coming here and are so grateful this space is available as a private dog run. Anne L.

55This place was amazing! Super kind hosts, the biggest fenced in spot I’ve been to, some good hills and view plus the sheep kept my boy well entertained. Remember to bring your own water/bowl and enjoy this gorgeous spot! Laura H.

55Large field. Some grass was about 2’ tall and my dogs loved that. Most grass was short. The two little French Bull dog type on the other side of the fence were awesome. My dogs and those dogs ran the entire length of the fence several times and enjoyed each others company. This spot is going into my favorite list.Chris S.

55So glad we were able to get out here before it closed for the season! My dog had an amazing time running, exploring, and hunting for moles. At one point he got too interested in the sheep in an adjoining paddock and he was very politely rebuffed by the guardian dog, who immediately started wagging its tail as soon as I called my dog away.

55This was a great spot! So big and open, my dogs had the best time. The owners were so nice, and their border collie showed us how she herds the sheep. Sam J.

55Really great spot! The space is really large and the gap in fencing is relatively small. We had no problems keeping our dogs contained. The neighbor dogs made an appearance but my dog was THRILLED with that and got some extra zoomies in!brit h.

55This is a wonderful spot! The pups have all the room they could want in the indoor arena while protected from the weather! There are all kinds of items provided from chairs, to balls, to steps and pylons.
The outdoor area seems nice as well, though I didn't use it but can't wait to try!
My pups had a wonderful time and we will certainly be back!Kim D.

55We had an incredible time. The weather was extremely wet, but we stayed for over two hours sniffing and playing. Meeting the goats and rabbits and turkeys and chickens was also fabulous. I couldn’t have asked for a better trip (with the exception of the downpour). aj k.

55We loved this spot! My dog had tons of room to sprint and explore. The fencing is secure and the field was clean. There are farm animals that they can see nearby, but they are separated and fun to see.Sara M.

55A great place for my very active dogs to just be dogs! Sniffing, bouncing, running and playing. We practiced recall, looked at and listened to the menagerie of farm animals, and had an enrichment-filled walk. Hosts gave a friendly greeting and orientation to the ranch. Bonus getting to see day-old baby goats 🥰 We’ll definitely be back! Julie M.

FAQ About Sherwood 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.
