55Can't say enough about our experience with Lois and Pups-R-Us! Lois went above and beyond to make our pup and ourselves feel comfortable and ensure we had a good time. She had a puppy pool ready to go, as well as a sprinkler, a towel, toys, treats, cold water (for all of us!), poop bags, bug spray and sun block, along with a very welcoming note and seating. The yard is big and fantastic, where our reactive, large, middle-age boy could roam freely and safely. Couldn't recommend Lois and Pups-R-Us more for any dog owners looking for a spot for their doggo to explore! We will definitely be back. Thank you Lois!Bryan B.

55Lois is the best host!!! We brought a dog from our animal rescue for his birthday. She set up a pool, sprinkler, table with human goodies, as well as birthday decorations and a sign wishing him a happy birthday! The property is amazing and is a very quiet, peaceful & private. We will definitely be back!!! Kerry M.

55We all (humans and dogs!) had the best time at Lois’ Sniff Spot! Lois is such a warm, friendly, FUNNY, and extremely gracious host. Our dogs were so warmly welcomed and provided with anything and EVERYTHING they could possibly want. Lois went above and beyond to ensure our dogs had the best time. She provided toys, treats, water (for humans and dogs), bowls, bug spray, sunscreen, kiddie pool, sprinkler, and more. The yard was safe, beautiful, very clean and well-taken care of. There was a lot of mowed lawn for the dogs to play fetch on and some areas with longer grass and rocks for them to sniff and explore to their hearts content. We truly appreciate the care, love, and attention Lois put into ensuring our dogs had a wonderful experience. We can’t wait to come back! Allison C.

55Lois is lovely. She let me leave my dog in the running car while she gave me the tour since my dog is not great with unfamiliar people. She also left us sunscreen, bug spray, water and treats! The yard was spacious enough and we even saw a deer in the woods on the other side of the wire mesh. It is near an airport so there are some planes flying overhead but my pup did not seem to care. She had a great time! Definitely give Lois' spot a try! Jillian C.

55Our host Lois was very accommodating, providing water, toys and biscuits for the dogs and water for us to drink as well. It is a great open property with just a little wooded areas for dogs to explore, which was perfect. Our two girls had a great time. Theresa G.

55Amazing run at this sniffspot! Lois was very communicative and thoughtful and accommodating even though we were running late. She came out to greet us and left out a bunch of toys, water and even a towel. The grassy yard was large and completely securely fenced in. Fun rocks to climb up and the downhill/uphill slopes were great too. Betty C.

55Our hostess was generous and gracious, setting out a table with amenities for the dogs and water for the humans. The area was immaculate, on a rolling hill backing up to a wooded area with many exciting things to explore. I'm now listening to two snoring, exhausted and very contented pups! Highly recommend!Theresa B.

55Lois is an amazing host and very accommodating! GoGo and I showed up in our rain gear and felt right at home. Her property is spacious, secure and private - perfect for any pup who might struggle with reactivity or a multi-pup playdate. When we arrived, she greeted us and had arranged treats, water, toys and a towel underneath an umbrella. We only had to cut our visit 15 minutes short because my dog was tired from sprinting up and down the hill in her yard. He had a blast! I look forward to coming back in the warmer weather to explore more of her property. I highly recommend any dog owner bring their pup to play here!dinah B.

55This is our first Sniffspot experience and I couldn’t have asked for a more seamless and perfect one! We were greeted by the family, who gave us a rundown of the area and a heads up that some areas that might muddy, which was very appreciated. There was a spot to sit, a towel, treats, toys, water, and a handwritten note welcoming my dog, Zuko. Zuko played fetch and sniffed all around the perimeter of the spacious, grassy, fenced area. Needless to say, he slept soundly for the rest of our car ride and had a great birthday. Thank you Lois for being so generous with your space! It gives dog parents like me an opportunity to treat my best friend to a special birthday. Susan N.

FAQ about our New Windsor 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the New Windsor 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 181 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 50 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.
