55I went to Mary’s fenced backyard and has a really good time there with my 2 dogs. They could run, sniff around and get some fresh air.
There were a bowl and plastic bag to pick up after the dogs, I also saw toys there. We didn’t use any of those, but it was nice to see it was available.
I’m sure my dogs got plenty of exercise and a good time there!
For sure we are going back to that place, thank you Mary!! 🐾🐾Larissa L.

55This spot is huge! Corey is super nice, communicative, left water out, toys, very clear directions. My dog and my foster dog had a blast running and exploring. My foster girl especially, as she is a hound that lives with her nose to the ground, or looking up a tree for critters. I'll be back, just wish it weren't so far from me or I would go every week!

55Biscuit and I have been enjoying this sniff spot for almost a year. The yard is clean, spacious and provides lots of running space for fetch and foliage for exploring. This is by far our favorite place to play.Terri K.

FAQ About Wilmington 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.
