55Such an amazing Sniff Spot! Even with the rain creating a little bit of mud, our dog had the best time! I loved that it was fully fenced, so we could just let him run around and chase the toys that were provided. We will definitely be back again! Madeleine B.

55Loving the changes made! We were going a lot as the ground was wet. The new toy drawers keep everything dry and that is so much more enticing to my pups!! Stacy K.

55Our pups loved this spot. Lots of room to run and long grasses to sniff. They were too excited to play with the toys but I appreciate them being there and the water for them to drink. Excited for the pool this summer as one of our doggos loves to swim. Great spot! Thank you! Mikey L.

55I’d wanted to visit this place since I first found out about it. It was better experience than I had imagined. From the time we entered the gate, my dogs were nose to the ground and soooo excited! So much to sniff and explore. Of course, there are complimentary toys. But they were having so much fun sniffing and running around, they didn’t even want the toys. They were so worn out, it was naps for the rest of the afternoon!! Thank you, Adam for a safe and private place to play. It was a nice change from leash walks and normal dog parks!! We’ll be back!Heather B.

55Our dog loved it! We have a fairly large yard but not this large of a space to let her run until her heart’s content. She was safe and happy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kya G.

55Great spot! Tons of toys, fresh water available, and the fence felt secure all the way around. 2 dogs were visible from the space - not an issue for our girl but something to be aware of. We will definitely be back! Katherine B.

55Your Spor never fails to provide a great experience! We have been coming for awhile and watched the Spot flourish.
Sam has become so comfortable and loves the spot so much he now has two favorite “resting” spots and will occasionally spend a lot of time just sniffing, decompressing and enjoying the Gardner way.
Always an ample supply of balls, toys, bags, and things to sniff. Sam gives it a five paw and it’s another 5 star for Adam and his kiddos for providing such a refuge!Brian C.

55Perfect place to practice off-leash commands with a pup - large, but not too large. Ours had fun, grass was mowed short in places and longer in others. Lots of toys. Water. It was cloudy and later in the day when we went, but I can see it would be hot in the summer as there's very little natural shade. Was worried I would come home with ticks and/or bug bites, but didn't. Fairly quiet, but does side with a busier 2-lane country road. While we were there, the trash truck came, so there was briefly people within sight/earshot and other dogs barking. Obviously can't be avoided, but just a heads up if you have a very reactive dog. We would definitely go back.Ashley S.

FAQ about our Gardner small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Gardner?
There are 72 small dog parks in the Gardner area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
