Dante's 3.08 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Malabar | Sniffspot
55Great place for dogs to run and play. The island, with the gazebo, was perfect for Biggie to go to when he was chasing the ball thrown into the lake. He was exhausted after doing his belly flop and then swimming to retrieve his favorite toy. Hunter checked out the yard behind the house. Not where I wanted him to be. He also checked out the horse's paddock, another spot I did not want him to visit. He needs to continue his training, listen, and behave, but the big grassy area was just too much for him to control himself. Eventually, with lizzie's help, he returned and stayed with me. He had a good run and was nowhere near the horse.
I am handicapped and the walkway was perfect for my scooter. Had no need to go to the island and walk up the steps but could have.
Dante's was clean and safe for the dogs. Great communication from the owner. Beautiful place to take the pups and let them play.Sharon W.

55We are traveling for the winter and Sniffspots have been such a great way to give our dog some extra adventure and fun. This was a great spot with plenty of yard to roam and explore and access to the pool. Minty LOVES to swim so finding a safe place for her to have some swimming time was really nice. The fencing was fine for us (60 pound dog) and we had a really great time. The resident dog did bark a bit, BUT the property is so big that it wouldn't be an issue to avoid the house area if you have a dog that might be sensitive to that, and it wasn't an issue at all in the pool area. Totally happy we booked here and if we travel to this area again we will be back!Amy W.

55This is our 2nd time using this place and is probably going to be my go to as long as it’s a Sniffspot. We stopped going to dog parks because of the low quality of dog owners and this is a great place for my dog to play with her friends 1 on 1 . This place is always clean and private and easily accessible. I recommend it to everyone I know. Angel D.

55This is a beautiful property and I’m so glad Barbara is sharing it with Sniffspot guests! The pool is awesome and my dog got further in than he has in the past. Plenty of room to run in the yard and nice shade trees in back. Gerry-Anna J.

55My 3 dogs had an absolute blast, clean environment and the pool was so much fun for my labs. They ran around the big yard the second they got out of the car! This place is also small dog friendly which was perfect for my Pomeranian.

55What a wonderful space. My dogs loved having room to run in the grass, flop down under the big oak trees, and investigate all the exciting smells. The gates wouldn't contain a small dog, but they were fine for my dogs (60 lbs). The fence was in good shape as well. Thank you, Barbara!JoLee P.

55It was very peaceful. Just you and your dog. Grass was green and well kept. Two big oak trees in the back for resting in the shade. Pool was nice, my Jack loved it!
Barbara’s is not far from me…but, when there it feels like you’re miles away. Good for your dog and it’s human. Dionne J.

FAQ About Malabar 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. 26% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Malabar 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 160 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 223 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.
