55Took my two doggos out for a swim as a treat. It was last minute but the host was able to accommodate us. Unfortunately for her she had to answer to my old lady Labrador about how the steak she was grilling up was in fact, not for her. We ended up doing extra pool skimming as well because the same old lady managed to kick a honking clod of dirt out of the planter and into the pool. The pool was fantastic, the backyard itself was lovely, and the host was great. I hope we don't get banned for the dirt maneuver and can come back another day to play again. My dogs left (reluctantly) exhausted and spent the rest of the evening sleeping off the fun. Tracy D.

55It was a nice place to take your dogs. I took three of my dogs and they enjoyed the pool and the yard for sniffing and playing. Definitely will be back soon!Alexandra C.

55Instructions on where to go and get in were perfect. The spot was AMAZING!!! Dexter has only played in a few inches of water and was hesitant to swim. Host gave me some advice on how to ease him into swimming and both Dexter and I had a great time. I had a very tired puppy when I got home! And that is saying a lot because he is a high speed playing machine. I will definitely be going back and 1000% recommend this spot to anyone!!!Shane M.

55Such a great sniffspot! The cleanest pool I’ve been to in a long time! The host sent clear instructions on how to access the property before the visit. Host left out a fresh bowl of water, treats and lots of pool toys. There is also a nice grassy area perfect for playing fetch. We used this as a pit stop on our road trip north and it was easy to access from 75. Thanks again! Michelle M.

55This sniffspot is excellent! Our dog loved the toys and jumping in the pool. We heard the dog(s) inside a few times, but it wasn't loud enough to be distracting. I don't think our other dog who is a bit reactive would be concerned with it. Overall a wonderful experience! Brooke M.

55A great backyard for your pups! A safe way to get your dog used to swimming. We had tried taking ours to dog parks with water but never felt settled with all the other dogs around. Good detailed instructions for an easy entrance and exit. Highly recommend. Tara P.

55My pup and me had a great time! The pool was just the right size for my dog to retrieve his favorite toy and swim back and forth. He also loved the pool dog float. We brought along a friend and her pup. Her pup was not interested in the pool but had plenty of green space in the backyard to run and play. I will be booking this space again and recommend this space for any person who has a dog that loves to swim!Karen R.

55This was our first time using sniff spot. We have a large, intimidating-looking dog that loves other animals and people. He sometimes gets a little too excited and jumps on people, so we don’t take him to dog parks. It was so nice for him to run around, sniff, and play in a new and safe space. This site was clean and the owners were so friendly. Instructions were clear. We would definitely come back.Rachel G.

55Absolutely LOVED this place! I have 2 dogs Nala and Atlas. Nala is a 2 yro Doberman Aussie mix and Atlas is a 5yro shepherd mix. I can’t bring atlas anywhere bc he was a rescue and is aggressive with new people and pets. He did SO good and had SO MUCH FUN! It was such a nice place to relax and just let Atlas roam with nala and be able to get out of his normal. He also hates water but he got in!!! Absolutely will be back! They had everything we could ever think of for a dog place! Anna O.

55There was an awesome assortment of toys in the bin that Fiona absolutely loved. She was a little too scared to go in the water, but she absolutely loved running around in the yard. Next time we visit the area, we'll definitely be stopping in again. This was a nice bit of unleashed fun while we're on vacation.Alyssa T.

FAQ about our Friendsville 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.
