55This place is amazing! It is so private and spacious. You truly feel like you are out and about on trails instead of in someone's sniffspot! Plenty of toys and spots to sit as well. The dogs (and humans) had a wonderful time :)Danielle M.

55I can’t do this SniffSpot justice in describing it. 3 acres fully fenced with more paths through the wooded lot than you would believe without seeing. Paths, open spaces, chairs, benches, toys, water…. A really awesome place for pups and their humans. My GSD had a blast and we will hopefully be returning soon and frequently. Scott B.

55This was our first dark outside visit. I'd say night time, but it was only 5:30p. All you need is a flashlight, and the fun continues. I'd recommend an LED or reflective collar. But, I'd recommend that for any activity in the dark. Kris M.

55Great space! Well worth the trip from downtown Minneapolis. My boy had such a good time exploring all the nooks and crannies, and having such a large area to get his zoomies out. There was a little confusion at the start, but texted the host and it was easily sorted. She was very gracious and accommodating. Will definitely be back! Patrick A.

55I’m so grateful for this spot. It’s a clean, safe, pretty area to run and play with my young dog while we work through her leash manners and over arousal when out in public. The best sniffspot around Diane L.

55Night visit at this Sniffspot was a great zooming time!
Came prepared with light up collar tags and glow in the dark squeaky balls!
I noticed that my 2 dogs ran around even more than they usually do, using their sense of smell and hearing to the fullest 😁Tess V.

55Very large space for your dog (or yourself) to run around in. The host provides toys, doggie bags and disposal cans, making it easy to clean up after your dog. There are lots of helpful notes on where to park and how to use the space, so you know exactly how everything works.
This is such a great space and so wonderful that the owners are sharing it with other dog people!Aaron B.

55If your dogs love to play chase or keep away, this spot is perfect. Lots of space, the trails between the trees/brush are nice and wide and spaced apart. My dogs were doing laps almost consistently. The host provided a bunch of toys and spots to sit. Or if you go when it is cold and you want to keep moving, walking the trails around the spot works wonderfully. Will definitely be back again!Amanda L.

FAQ about our Dayton 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 Dayton 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 216 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 23 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.
