55Coming back to the Pink Pony Ranch after a month out of town was a real treat. Sammy ran and played to his heart's content. If you don't yet have this place on your SniffSpot radar, you should check it out!Paula M.

55We had so much fun during our visit. Wide open space to throw a frisbee, plus plenty of trees for pups to sniff. My two ran and ran the whole hour. The fencing was perfectly secure for my small corgi. :) Happy, tired dogs and we’ll certainly be back!Ally F.

55What a perfect spot this is! Our dogs LOVED all the room to play and explore and were very curious about the "big dogs" (horses). Can't wait to visit again! Jesse B.

55AMAZING. The owner messaged me to let me know she sanitized everything for the dogs before we came (because of that dog virus). Everything was so beautiful. My dogs had the best time running around and seeing the horses and donkeys. There was a nice fire going that was super toasty and nice to be next to. Directions were easy and entering was just as easy. I will absolutely be returning. She also had tons of amenities (poop bags, water, toys, etc.). There was even a spot for my husband to sit and watch the game on his phone. Lol. Thank you SO much!! :) Mufasa and Kylaren had a BLAST! Janae E.

55Our pup had the BEST time racing around and exploring the huge area ! The host was so thoughtful and had a sanitized chuck it toy and fresh water and towels available. The highlight for our pup I think was checking out the donkeys and horses (in a contained area) who were all very sweet! Will be back for sure. It’s a great place!!Susan W.

55This is a really nice spot. Open space to romp and a small clump of trees to explore. The was a nice rubber trough for a hot border collie to jump into and clean water for the more civilized dogs. A paddock of lovely horses and donkeys were not at all bothered by the dogs running about. This is a good sniffspot.H L.

55We loved this place, it was nice and clean, only a couple minutes out of Jacksonville. They had fresh water out for the dogs. The dogs had plenty to do but mostly enjoyed trying to play with the horses. We’ll definitely be backTravais D.

55I loved this dog park. It was really cold, wet and rainy today but Texas and Lexie had a lot of fun running around. For the last 15 minutes or so we had a great time doing some obedience training in the indoor area which was warm and dry. I would definitely recommend Bella W.

55Oh my goodness, what a wonderful spot! Shade, sun, critters, plenty of running space for my leggy sighthound mix. Fencing is perfect for keeping my little troublemaker dog out of trouble, too. The host is responsive and kind, and we look forward to coming back for another visit!Liz S.

55This beautiful Sniffspot was beyond our wildest expectations! With plenty of grassy space to run and play, our little dogs had the time of their lives off leash. We were able to practice non reactivity with the horses and donkeys, at a close but safe distance through fencing. By the end of our hour, the reactive ones had made friends with the donkeys. I’ve truly never seen my dogs so happy. It’s rare that we let them off leash because their recall skills are poor, but we got lots of practice with that today and made huge progress in training.
We highly reccomend this gorgeous spot for any and all dogs. There is literally something for everyone there.
Can’t wait to come back again!

FAQ about our Jacksonville 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. 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Jacksonville 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 11 fully fenced dog parks in the area. 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 nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
