Woofies Play Yard

Fully Fenced
1 acre

UPDATE: Our winter hours of 8 am - 5 pm are now in effect. We remain open year round, but during the winter months all the amenities are put into storage. Please bring anything your dog may need during their visit (water, toys, bowl, etc). ————- We look forward to hosting you and your furry pal at Woofies Play Yard! Our 1+ acre spot has an open area for throwing the ball around, and a small wooded area for the pups to wander through the trees. A few obstacles to check out, and a picnic table for you to sit and relax. Located at the end of a dead-end road you’ll have privacy as you can barely see any houses from the Sniffspot. The spot is located in the front portion of our property and is entirely separate from our home area. You may occasionally see our neighbor whose driveway you’ll pass on the way to the Sniffspot. #woofiesplayyard Please refrain from using alcoholic beverages, or smoking/vaping on premises. Anyone using these on our property will be banned from this Sniffspot.

Meredith's Private Dog Park In Lake George

Unfenced
10 acres

Hello! I just found this app while scrolling and decided to make a profile. We live out in the country and there is a stream right on our property that my lab loves to swim in! We do have 2 labs here so it would be preferable to know when yall are coming so we can make sure everyone has a good time! There are plenty of trails around here as well. It’s a truly beautiful place with lots of space for your pup to run around or play fetch or swim or whatever! We can coordinate play dates with ours as well or just let you enjoy the space alone.

Frequently asked questions about Akeley dog parks

Are there dog parks in Akeley for reactive dogs?

Yes! Akeley has 23 private dog parks specifically designed for reactive, anxious, or dog-selective pets. Unlike public dog parks where unexpected encounters can trigger your reactive dog, Sniffspot offers completely private bookings. That means only you and your dogs will be there. We enforce 30-minute buffers between visits so you won't run into other park users when arriving or leaving. This makes Akeley Sniffspots perfect for reactive dogs who need safe off-leash exercise.

How many private dog parks are in Akeley?

Akeley has 23 private Sniffspot locations ranging from cozy backyard spaces to expansive properties spanning 60.99+ acres. You'll find small dog parks, fully fenced dog parks, and dog fields options, each offering complete privacy during your reserved time. Browse listings to compare sizes, amenities, fencing, and reviews from other Akeley dog owners.

Are Akeley dog parks friendly for all dog types?

Absolutely! Akeley Sniffspot locations work for every type of dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer away from large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space to run, and yes, reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. Because bookings are completely private, you can customize the experience to your dog's specific needs—whether that's careful puppy introductions or stress-free exercise for nervous dogs.

Will there be other dogs at Akeley dog parks?

No, that's what makes Sniffspot different from public dog parks! We only allow one booking at a time, and host dogs must be kept away during your visit. When you book a Akeley dog park, you have the entire space to yourself (plus any dog-owning friends you invite). This privacy is crucial for reactive dogs, puppies in training, or any dog who needs space from other animals.

What makes Akeley dog parks safe for anxious dogs?

Akeley Sniffspot locations provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. There are no aggressive dogs, no inattentive owners, and no unexpected encounters that could traumatize anxious or fearful dogs. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers), and hosts maintain clean spaces. 93% of Sniffspot reviews are 5 stars, with many highlighting how safe their reactive or anxious dogs felt.

Can puppies use Akeley dog parks?

Absolutely! Akeley dog parks are ideal for puppy socialization because they provide controlled, distraction-free environments. Puppies can practice recall, build confidence, and explore without the overwhelming chaos of public dog parks. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting any Akeley Sniffspot.

Are Akeley dog parks good for small dogs?

Yes! Many Akeley Sniffspot hosts mark their spaces as "small dog friendly," meaning they're appropriately sized for toy breeds and small dogs. Unlike public dog parks where small dogs risk being overwhelmed or injured by larger breeds, Akeley private bookings give your small dog the entire space to themselves. Look for secure fencing with minimal gaps and hosts who understand petite pup needs.

What are the requirements for Akeley dog parks?

All dogs must have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. Each Akeley host may have additional requirements listed on their booking page. Most welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit traditional public dog parks.
