55Excellent, large fenced-in backyard for our Aussie to run in! Beautiful space including a picnic table if you want a place to sit while your pup plays. Michael even includes a shed of toys, and other supplies to make your visit awesome. Signs make it very clear where to park and enter the yard. Thanks so much, we had a great time!Mallory R.

55My dogs had a blast running, sniffing, playing, getting in the pond. Would definitely recommend and will bring them back especially as the weather gets warmer they love to have the pond and stream to cool off in. Sophie K.

55This was our first time using sniff spot and we had a great time! Lovely place to spend some time while letting your fur baby explore. I was able to test out my dog’s recall in a safe environment, which was huge for us. Thank you!Carly J.

55Wow. Just wow. Thee most beautiful and perfect Sniffspot. Fully fenced, secure, extremely clean and well kept, PLENTY of space to run and play and the pond is just the cherry on top. The host Monica came out and introduced herself and was so nice and welcoming! We had an absolute BLAST. We did not want to leave and will definitely be back, especially since it is only 12 minutes from me. Monica H.

55We brought an adoptable shelter dog (Toast) to this sniffspot and it was beautiful! Will definitely be back. Monica was so sweet and welcoming. You can tell how much she loves the pups that visit. The property is clean and a great size - plenty of space for zoomies, fetch, sniffing, and strolling. Toast had a blast and we found out he likes to swim! There are fish in the pond and chickens on the property that Toast enjoyed watching (something to consider if you have a reactive dog). I highly recommend this sniffspot and am excited to return with another shelter dog!Allison C.

55Our pup and family had an amazing time! So much space to run and explore and a gorgeous pond area to listen to the fountain and watch the fish. Our reactive pup was in sensory heaven and was exhausted after the hour. Look forward to coming back again.! Nicole R.

55Tormund had a wonderful time at this truly backyard oasis! He waded in the pond (and didn’t bother a single fish), harassed chickens (first time seeing one), and of course, sniffed everything. By the end of the hour and a half he was waterlogged and pooped, waiting at the gate to head home. 🤣 we will definitely return on another hot day!Negesti K.

55Monica & her husband were the absolute sweetest. My dog is not great with other dogs & she went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable. Great location & our pups LOVED the pond ! null n.

55Clem had a great time today. This yard is our favorite out of all the spots we've visited. It's nice that he has the entire place to himself since he is unpredictable around other dogs. I loved that there was an umbrella to sit under today as it was very warm and sunny!Lori J.

55One of our favorite spots! The pups had a blast swimming in the pond and running around in the big yard. The neighbors dogs did bark at us when we first arrived, but settled down quickly and left us alone most of the time. Rachael Y.

FAQ about our Canal Winchester dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?

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.
