This spot is great! My brother and I brought our dogs. The 2 of them had so much fun. The yard is big with loads of room to run around and they loved having a good sniff. They are both reactive so regular dog parks are out of the question, but this was a great alternative. They got to play and run off-leash in a new area with new smells.

FAQ about our St. John's 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.
