55A really great alternative to taking the dogs for a walk in this heat. The yard is fully shaded (at least when I visit in the morning). We didn’t stay for the full hour today because at 80F my dogs were pretty gassed after 20 min of games, and we just hung out for a bit after that. As always, the fresh bowl of water and toys were much appreciated.Whitney M.

55Fantastic yard for dogs, especially to be this size in the city. There is a large bowl of fresh water on the patio, as well as a bin of dog toys. We played Chuck-it for nearly the entire hour. There is plenty of shade, which will be great as the temperature starts to heat up. The yard is on a slope, just something to consider if you have mobility issues. It was great for getting the dogs extra tired! The fence is VERY secure- my pit can be an escape artist. Parking is a little tight; if you drive a large car you might want to park elsewhere to avoid having to turn around as it is on a dead end. Great experience; we will definitely be back!Whitney M.

55Very nice yard! Parking was a little funky, but manageable. My dog loved it being on a hill because he would throw the ball himself!! Beautiful spot!Caroline D.

55I have a very reactive, high energy foster dog and this spot was perfect! The fully enclosed fence helped him not get distracted by seeing triggers. The water and toys provided were amazing. Highly recommend! Dana H.

55Large, well kept yard with a high, very secure fence. Hosts were very nice. Lots of open space and a few trees. Pretty neighborhood and a deck with a nice view. Our dogs are very happy. The yard is on a slope and there is an area with some loose bricks but it was easy to navigate, even in the dark. Thanks!!Amy B.

FAQ About Highland Park Southern Tip 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.
