55Awesome. Just amazing. Ten paws up! High five the hosts Chris and Christina! So great - clean and lots of space to run. Shade. Small essentials to clean up any small accidents and they even left some sparkling water for us in the fridge! I'd give 10 stars if I could. Tiffany H.

55Christina’s backyard was the perfect reprieve from the Texas heat for my two dogs! It is fully fenced and very well taken care of. There is plenty of room for zoomies, lots of smells to take in, and the option to cool off in the pool. I was able to enjoy watching my dogs frolicking from the patio which is entirely shaded and breezy. There is a pooper scooper and trash can visible upon entry, and a fresh full water bowl ready to go when we arrived. Highly recommend visiting with your dogs! Anne-Marie F.

55Very happy to be the first Sniffspot visitor to Big Oaks Private Dog Park in Buda. Both my 9 yo and 2yo Pharaoh Hounds loved it. The Park was the perfect size for them and always found something new to keep them occupied. I met the owner, Elaine, while I was there. She is very nice and hospitable. I'm very impressed with her and what she has going on at Big Oaks. As you can see in the last pic, the 9yo was ready to pass out and the 2yo was worn out. It should be a restful night for all of us.

55Elaine is an absolute delight and the big oaks dog park is perfect for new smells and play! The agility equipment is in great condition and water and poop scooper is in the park. Plenty of chairs to relax in under the tree in shade. If you’re looking for a new spot for your pups to enjoy I would definitely recommend!! The dog park is very close to a daycare/training facility so you can hear the dogs there and see them being dropped off. However it’s far enough from the actual park that the dogs don’t interfere with your visit. The park and facility overall seems very organized and professional.Ari L.

55Awesome spot! My dog loved it. I personally loved the agility equipment. There aren’t many places for rentals that have dog walks, a full A frame and a totter. If you need a place to brush up or practice on some agility equipment this place is a great option.
Even if you aren’t interested in that there is plenty of shaded space for dogs to hang out around and enough space to play frisbee or fetch. Latania F.

55This is just the most amazing spot to have found and I’m so lucky to live close by! It is serene, quiet, shaded with plenty of seating to relax, great equipment for the pups and tons of room to run. The water/hose was clutch in the summer heat. Will definitely be back! Sarah B.

55It was great! Very clean. The directions were super difficult on Google though. It kept taking me to a gate on the other side of the property so just be aware of that. Also you can hear some of the neighbors dogs barking so if you have a super reactive dog be aware. My dog and I had an amazing time otherwise. The equipment was great and the fence was secure Maeghan H.

55My boys always love coming here. Very nice size for them to run at full speed. There are also a lot of things for them to sniff and explore. I wish I could get them to use the agility equipment that's available, but they are too occupied with running around for me to get them focused... LOL. Marc S.

55Nani had such a fantastic time running around this sniffspot. There's so much room to run around and play even if your dog won't use the agility equipment. Will definitely make this a regular stop for us. Emory W.

55I loved this Sniffspot! It has a nice big yard and as someone who does agility with my dog, I loved having the full size agility equipment to practice with. We had a great time, but there were a lot of sticker burrs in the yard. I know it's starting to be that time of year again, but just something to be aware of. We would definitely visit again!Kelsey T.

FAQ about our Buda 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 Buda 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 212 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 26 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.
