55This Sniffspot is like your own little private oasis! It is so quiet and peaceful. We have a GSP and he had a BLAST sniffing all around. Eric’s property is clean and he provides you with easy to follow instructions in regards to the property lines vs. the state forest if you so choose to journey into it. Overall 5⭐️!! Our pup had a great time, and since we are local it was a wonderful way to spend an evening while letting him do what his does best, sniffs!! Mikayla K.

55Zoey and I have been here a few times and she’s getting so much out of it. She’s started to use the obstacles and actually jumped over some today! It’s a great place to play with and teach your dog. Jessica G.

55Absolutely wonderful spot for doggies! Clean and orderly, the agility equipment is a bonus. First visit, it was great to let my dog run freely once he determined it was allowed. I will reserve again!Janice W.

FAQ about our Ellington 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 Ellington 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 136 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 25 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.
