55We brought both of our dogs to the Mountain Paradise - one is a frustrated greeter with other dogs and the other is fearful of new people. This was an incredible set up for both of them and very low stress for my husband and me. The host provided water and a poop scooper. We didn't see other houses/pets/people our entire visit. The main property is well fenced and has a decent slope, so bring hiking-type boots. It was great conditioning for the dogs. The agility area was flatter and I was impressed with the quality of the contact obstacles - they were rubberized and in great shape. The property is tucked back off the main road and requires one to pay close attention to the directions, but it's worth the trip!Kelci R.

55Awesome experience! Our new favorite place. Fenced agility course and acres of wooded areas with lots of places to sniff. Also, a beautiful patio for humans to relax. Melissa was great! Just follow her detailed directions and you won’t be sorry. Susan B.

55My husky Maya loved it! Many chipmunks & butterflies to chase on over 2+ beautiful acres of wooded land. It was peaceful, quiet and exactly what she needed. Plenty of room to roam and explore, while secured inside the fence! Just make sure you follow Host directions for how to get there and its very easy. Following the google maps app was a disaster!

55After months of desperately searching for a new place to take my five dogs to run around (baseball fields are now closed to dogs), I finally stumbled upon this place and I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner! As some of my dogs are barrier reactive, dog parks are no longer an option unless I feel like being criticized because of their energy level. So this place is awesome for reactive or under socialized dogs. They have a giant fenced in area with all the agility items you could want, and then another gate leads to an even bigger fenced in area that extends down a hill and to the side of the property. The large fence is behind a house, but the whole area is securely fenced in (although the gate by the house is a little bit lower than the rest of the fence) but still tall enough that my dogs didn’t even think about jumping it. The owner provided a large jug of water along with a clean bowl and poop scoop. She even provided a chair to relax on while having the peace of mind that my pups are staying nearby, as well as a dog bed that my 15 yr old appreciated after the hike. This place is absolutely beautiful and I will most definitely be coming back!Andrea J.

55Very much enjoyed our time with our pup at Mountain Paradise. The property is beautiful, private, fenced in and includes an area with sturdy agility equipment. Melissa had a full water dish waiting, a poop scoop station, and a welcoming info sheet. Couldn’t have been better! Stephanie D.

55This is the only Sniffspot we've visited, but have been twice now, because it's wonderful! Tons of space for doggies to run around on a beautiful mountainside. The yard is securely fenced all the way around. We did have one of our smaller dog friends try to make a getaway through the slatted gate, but he didn't make it all the way through. :) Thanks for having us! Lindsi E.

55I have a flight risk coonhound and am always scared to let her off leash. This spot made me feel so comfortable about letting her run! The fence is high with no gaps, the gates are secure and the size is enough to run but manageable. Claire W.

55This was our first time using a sniffspot, and will absolutely use again. Directions were clear, Elizabeth also offered us blankets and towels for the dogs as it was cold and a little snowy this morning. Our dogs had so much fun. Colleen L.

55Gorgeous large yard for dogs of any size to run around in! Tons of shade from a big tree, tons of sunlight to soak in, tons of seating options. Be sure to bring your own frisbee, balls and toys to play with. We had a great time and might make this our weekly spot! My pup wore out all of her energy, thank you!Autumn H.

FAQ about our Empire fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Empire?

How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
