55What a spectacular place! We have been to loads of sniffspots and Max’s playground is one of the very best! Very safe and lovingly maintained. The hosts are wonderful and really go out of their way to make sure you have everything you would need. It’s such a lovely tribute to their beloved Max. Of course the dogs had so much fun and were very tired. Can’t wait to come backTracy M.

55I learned about SniffSpot from my dog training coach for my dog who is overall anxious but especially fearful, highly reactive toward other dogs. Max’s Playground is a safe haven for all doggos- you can tell how much love and care is dedicated to upkeep such a beautiful property. Plenty of water, garbage cans, and sniffs to be had here. Thank you for opening up your yard to our furry family members. Gabriela O.

55If there were ever a time to wish there were more than 5 stars, this would be the moment. The hosts were absolutely lovely and our dog, Hank, LOVED his very first experience being off leash since we adopted him 3 years ago.
My girlfriend was noticeably worried about him being off leash, as Hank can have selective hearing, and we live in an apartment setting, where Hank has almost gotten away a couple of times.
Dog owners, DO NOT WORRY! The fencing that borders all of Max's Playground is not only complete, but sturdy, with no gaps that I could see, at all.
The hosts go above and beyond with the amenities that they provide. In addition, they donate the money from this endeavor to local animal shelters, which is very admirable and respectable.
I normally never write reviews, but Max's Playground certainly deserves the best review possible. Max's Playground is a gift to Hank, and the local community of dog lovers, in general.
I can only hope that everyone who visits Max's Playground remains respectful of Max's Playground. This will ensure that Hank (and everyone else's dog) can enjoy the memory of Max and the playground he left behind for other dogs to enjoy for years to come.
I will be purchasing a subscription for Hank to become a regular. To be honest, it is difficult to see the good in the world today, but Max's Playground, and all of the work that went into honoring his memory, makes me smile. Hats off to this project, to Max's owners, and above all, to Max.
Rest easy, my friend. Although I never met you, I am sure this is how you would want everyone to remember you. Hank will carry the torch and patrol for any rabbits, squirrels, etc. when he visits.
As for Delbert, he misses you terribly, Max. He did turn his tears into something beautiful, though. Just how any good boy would want things to be.
A+++ ONE MILLION STARS!!! Perfection achieved! I can't say enough good things. John O.

55We absolutely loved our visit with our boys to Max’s Playground. The trails were maintained and there was freshwater for them to drink. We felt our boys were safe and secure as the area is fenced in completely. There is plenty of shade and places to sit. They even had a baby pool that our dogs enjoyed. It really is a beautiful property that we ourselves enjoyed walking .
We definitely will be back.Wendy F.

FAQ about our Danville 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Danville 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 40 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 4 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.
