55My dog Bentley and I enjoyed this clean and spacious location immensely! We were greeted by the host and he explained the many amenities. Entry from the street is sloped and there are a number of steps into the play area. Bentley indulged in much sniffing and exploring the yard and then played the 'find it' game with me - I tossed treats for him to find. We look forward to another visit at this location. phyllis e.

55Great spot for dogs to explore and roam freely. It feels like you’re in the forest even though you’re in a city. Lots of little trails for the dogs and humans to follow. The owner left out toys, water, and treats for the dogs. The owner kept in touch and sent helpful information before our visit. Wish we lived closer so we could visit more often! Andrea B.

55Our pups had a great time! The area was so fun for them to explore and sniff around. Plus it's mostly shaded which was great in the GA heat.
Anna was so nice to provide toys, treats and water. Carly S.

FAQ about our Ellenwood 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ellenwood area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 380 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
