This place is great! Highly recommended. In addition to the sturdily fenced in yard, there are seats for the humans, a cool pee spot with a repurposed fire hydrant, fresh water, poop bags. It's really well set up. Our dog doesn't know how to use the agility equipment, but it's great for just running around and fetching a ball too.

Jennifer was an amazing host! She chatted with my fiance and I got a bit when we arrived and was so kind. Provided water, poop bags and chairs for us to relax while the pups played. Copper and Chief are brothers and they are "Black and Tan Counhound mix puppies only 10 months old, they absolutely love playing together. This was our first time here and the dogs loved the area to run and play and Copper actually was confident enough to use some of the equipment which was pretty awesome. We will definitely be back for more playing!

Great little spot, perfect to tire out our 2 energetic pups. Enjoyed trying the playground equipment. Last-minute booking, worked well.

Jennifer's space is an absolute delight. There's a great agility course for your active, athletic pup in a super clean, well kept, and beautifully fenced yard. Chairs for humans, shade, and water for your dog. The price is very reasonable, too. Visit this gem in Athens, NY, your dog will thank you!

We had a great outing, a little overwhelming for the pup.. his first visit. The yard is well groomed. The obstacle equipment is in great shape. There’s room to run around as well as to play on the equipment. The fencing is heavy duty and the latching system is great. The yard is in a open area so it was sunny. We had a great trip and are looking forward to returning soon.

FAQ about our Athens 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.
