55Such a beautiful farm! We almost had as much fun sitting and relaxing at the pond as the dogs did playing. We did have an e-collar on them to make sure they didn't bother the horses, which they never even noticed because of the large amount of land and fun at the pond. Highly recommended for any dog!Mandy H.

55Great hosts, amazing spot. I was a little worried about the horses since my herding dog has been known to try to herd livestock. They are friendly and a couple walked up to us. I kept her on a long line to start. Luckily, the horses just ignored her when she pranced over to say hi, and their ability to ignore her made it easy for me to call her away from them before she got started. I even was able to let her off the line and she had a blast running full speed across the field and jumping straight in the pond.
100% would recommend. Melissa M.

55Our host was super friendly and accommodating. She came out to tell us how much access we had which was more than we would ever need. Our 2 pups had a great time. Be prepared to wipe down the dogs before they go home when they find the pond. Paula S.

55Michele is a fantastic host and the farm is amazing to visit. We had so much fun exploring. Guests may want to bring a change of clothes to go swimming in the pond with their fur babies. The farm is gigantic and there is a lot to see. My dog and I cannot wait to visit again!! Sarah G.

55We had such a blast today! This sniffspot is perfect for letting dogs let loose and decompress. We always felt safe knowing they’re fenced in, but there was so much to explore it felt like the world was their oyster! We will definitely be back.. again and again. Tiff S.

55I wasn't sure how my dogs would behave around horses, but they both did great! My bigger dog really enjoyed swimming in the pond. There was so much property to walk around and explore. Lots of new smells for the dogs! We will definitely be back again and again!!Tammie S.

55Visiting Silk Purse Farm, was a fantastic experience for my two dogs and me. The place was exquisite and picturesque. The hosts were friendly and kind. My pups (especially my Aussie) had an incredible time playing and exploring. Although we are just passing through the area, experiencing Silk Purse Farms will
be a forever cherished memory for myself and fur babies. If you are fortunate to be able to attend every day, I truly recommend doing it, your fur babies will be eternally grateful, plus it is safer and healthier than a dog park. Carol P.

55This spot was wonderful! I wasn’t sure how the dogs would do around the horses so we stayed further away from the barn, but it was so much fun! Cari C.

55Was a little tricky to find the entrance, but the host was very helpful and responded immediately. We loved our run around with the pond and the dirt mounds. There is livestock around but they're very neutral to dogs - just keep your own pups under control and you'll have a blast!Laura G.

55We had so much fun! The pups enjoyed all the new smells and really had room to get their zoomies out. They also discovered a new breed of GIANT dogs (horses) that they were not so sure of 😂 would definitely come back!Kandace N.

55Our pups had so much fun! We kept the escape artist dog on a long leash, some of the mesh in the fence is just big enough that he could slip through.
And my dog definitely needed a bath after rolling in the horse poop, but with his happy smile, worth the extra layer of shampoo 😆.
The other animals where fun to watch, horses, goats and I think I saw a donkey.
Small pond is great for cooling off after running around (or washing off all mud).
Host is quick to respond and very nice.
We will definitely come back!

55What a cool Sniffspot! It is truly beautiful with more than enough mental stimulation for any pooch. Valerie was welcoming & patient about explaining the safety rules, which gave me the confidence to let my dog check everything out at her own pace. There are farm animals around but they steered clear of us and only added to the fun of smelling new scents for my dog. Other dogs on the property stayed in their own enclosure and didn’t bother us at all. There is a very nice shady place with chairs for humans to relax under a canopy and some beautiful wind chimes but frankly I was too excited to sit still as my dog ran amok in unfettered joy. This is the perfect place for training and hands on pet parents who enjoy exposing their dog to new experiences and challenges. Really looking forward to coming back for some playtime in the obstacle course! I highly recommend this place for anyone to visit. Thank you so much for making it available and so affordable!!Sarah G.

FAQ about our Aberdeen 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Aberdeen 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 75 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 11 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.
Can I rent a field for my dog to run near Aberdeen?
There are 17 Sniffspot dog parks that offer fields in or near Aberdeen where dogs can be off leash. The most popular field is Pups Play Pasture at Silk Purse Farm.
