55I brought my 2 aussi-mix sisters, Lavender and Didi, to this wonderful yard. Well-fenced and big enough for a flat out run but not too big that I couldn’t see the dogs at all times. There was water in a bottle on the table and 2 large water bowls plus treats and waste baggies. Some stuffed toys were strewn about too! Lots of shady seating for humans. It was an absolute joy to see my girls run like greyhounds all over the place. Lots of tail wags and tongue-lolling smiles. If you have a sneaky escape artist like me, keep an eye on the gate area because it’s just possible to wriggle under. The rest of the yard is flush to the ground.
Thanks Amber and Adam!Amy D.

55A nice big clean yard. The patio area was great. When we got there they had provided toys water and a bed. Jake got to run himself silly which is all we were hoping for. As a bonus, there is a beautiful garden just across the fence. If we ever find ourselves in this area again we will definitely stop again Phillip D.

55What a great spot! These hosts are so sweet and thought of everything. They had a welcome sign for Winnie and even some very practical goodies too, along with a dog bed, water, poop bags, and toys. We have a 7 year old retired racing greyhound and unfortunately they are not endurance dogs and are known for intense speeds for a short time, so she only ran for about 10 minutes before being completely wiped. But we still got to enjoy the other 50 minutes lounging under the shaded pergola while Winnie laid in her dog bed recovering. Imagine what a full hour would do for a dog that had the stamina for it! I definitely highly recommend, and would only suggest watching the temps for heat-sensitive dogs like ours since it is in full sun, so next time we might try to come even earlier when the temps are closer to 60s. Thank you so much to the hosts for making this available to those who need it for their pups! Kristina W.

55If I was asked to design the perfect Sniffspot, this would be it. Everything was perfect: the size of the yard, the amount of sun/shade, the yard itself, the fencing, the water/treats/toys/poopbags/etc provided by the owners and the seating for humans. Parking was extremely convenient. The instructions told us everything we needed to know and communication was flawless. We loved spending time here. As with all Sniffspots, depending on the season make sure you bring bug spray.Andrea H.

55We had a blast! There’s some shade, water, a couple doggie snacks, a raised dog bed, and plenty of fully fenced yard. Plus the location is easy to find and its easy parking. We can’t wait for next time!Izzy D.

55We were in the middle of a long drive so our time of arrival was a little bit unpredictable. Adam was nonetheless accommodating with our schedule. He was also communicative and proactively let us know there are some workers at his neighbors during the time we would be there, and that they would be visible to Zuko (our dog), in case he might mind.
The yard was equipped with dog-friendly amenities such as water, treats, poop bags, dog insect repellent, and a welcome sign just for Zuko. It was fully secured with a fence (can see through), spacious, and just what Zuko needed to stretch out his legs after an hour and a half in the car. He had a great time playing fetch with the orange football and was happily tired after 45 minutes.
Thank you again for offering a safe space for our dog to run around and play! Susan N.

55What an amazing spot to let my dog run and play. Fully fenced so I had no worries. No puddles or dirty areas. There’s an adorable memorial area for their previous dog so I know they are absolute dog lovers. It was quiet and peaceful. I will definitely be booking again. I wish I could upload a video of my dog running but I hope you get the sense of his happiness from the pictures. Oh and did I mention that he was exhausted after the hour ?! It’s right off the thruway so it’s very easy to get to. Dia G.

FAQ About Highland 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. 13% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Highland 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 146 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
