55A very beautiful area with lots of surrounding fall foliage. The fence is secure and easy to open/close. The grass seems like it used to be a spot where animals grazed, as it is a bit uneven. Not a big deal and I think it will slowly become more even over time.Eisha L.

55I am so stoked about this sniffspot!! Great location close to where I live, easy access and such a huge place for my pups to play. We brought our own toys, but need to remember water next time! The views were so beautiful, and my dogs had a blast. We will be back ❤️Suzanne V.

55This place is wonderful!! My pup isn’t exactly an athlete so he didn’t use it for the whole hour but he got some great sniffs and zoomies in :) the fence is extremely sturdy, parking is easy, there were two neighbor dogs we could see/hear in the distance but it wasn’t a big issue at all. Will definitely be back!Grace B.

FAQ about our Richmond 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.

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 16 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 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.
