55My dog wasn’t to sure about the goats but they kept their distance and theirs a fence in between. It was his first time ever seeing live stock which was a cool experience to see! He loved running around and sniffing things! 10/10 sniffspot!Logan A.

55Loved this spot! Had treats for the dogs and goats! Water set out, poop bags, everything you could need! We went in the evening and there were tiki torches lit and he even offered to light a fire for us! Perfect for off leash training!! We will be going back for sure! Rebecca G.

55Thank you so much for sharing your property with us townhome-dwellers! Nova had a GREAT time exploring and visiting with the goats, and we appreciated all of the amenities for people, dogs AND goats!
There was plenty of fresh water for Nova and she loved the crunchy treats. Thank you so much for fencing off the pond area at the bottom of the property; Nova would have jumped right in there without a second thought. I can't wait to bring a group of friends here to enjoy a canine social.
FYI to lowered cars- it is a long dirt road and the route is a bit bumpy at times. The generous parking area is in a mowed area. Tanya M.

55Easy to find and great directional prompts to the Sniffspot parking and entrance! Daniel has definitely gone out of his way to welcome guests to his ranch with signs, notes, water, treats, and toys. My dog loved to run the trails and there were a few grassy areas to play fetch. Lots of spots along the trail for humans to sit and rest and enjoy nature. The goats were adorable, very curious and friendly. My dog just kept barking at them, so I kept him distracted by exploring other areas of the ranch. Great spot, we will be back.Laurie T.

55What an excellent experience! I am not sure who had more fun - the humans or the dog. Secure fence, mowed/mulched path and wooded areas for romping. Heard the neighbor dog for just a minute when we pulled up. Owner provided treats, water, toys, bug spray, sunscreen and wipes. The goats were super fun as were the hammocks, tree swing and tent. If I could give this Sniffspot a 10, I would. We will definitely be back.Cheryl M.

FAQ about our Waltham 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.
