55When we arrived the owner opened the garage door for us to enter the yard through.
It was a nice, large space and my dog really enjoyed exploring the area! He also liked to see the resident dog through the window, and the neighbor dogs when they were let outside.Chelsey E.

55A little bit of old field fencing helped corral our four overly excited doggos while we tried to teach them the perimeter we needed them to stay in. That was super helpful. They had a blast chasing each other through the open field in back of the house, and sniffing the terrrain around the mown pathways. This was a great adventure for our two too-reactive-for-typical-dog-parks pooches. They all got to cut loose, run, chase each other and explore. We will definitely book again soon. Thank you for opening your home to needy pups!Hilary S.

55Perfect chunk of open field even in the winter. Host is super kind. Once you get up past the house the fear of being by a busy road diminishes. Kayla E.

55Met Greg as we arrived - really kind hosts. Talked us through where to walk as the snow covered some of the natural paths there in the summer. Our girl loved the space to run, sniffing for critters in the snow banks and playing ball back by the fields! The road isn’t a concern once you’ve walked a bit. Recommend!Helen P.

55My dog loved it here and so did I! It's not gigantic, but plenty of room for ball and zoomies. There are several trees, so has sun and shade. For a first time sniffspot user I am very happy. I will go here again! Michelle L.

55This was a great spot for us! We stopped in Madison for a rest day in a cross country trip and this was a nice break for Ziggy. It was an easy drive from our hotel and Zigs loved spending an hour sniffing and watching kids have recess at the elementary school behind this SniffSpot. The spot was clean and lovely!Marilyn S.

FAQ about our Waunakee 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.
