55This was just what we needed today- a safe, fenced grassy area for our puppy and the whole family to play for awhile. Host was friendly and gracious and we'll definitely be back again! Lindsay W.

55My greyhound and I had an amazing first visit today. Charissa was kind enough to meet us and bring over her own greyhound to keep my girl company and also another one she was boarding. The area was perfect for my girl’s needs, They kept a bowl of water filled for us. The grass was freshly cut and the ground was level and very clean. I’m so happy to have found this spot and to have met Charissa and especially to discover she has so much greyhound knowledge and experience. I would highly recommend and will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks again, Charissa!Shannon F.

55This is a wonderful place to take dogs! I failed to properly plan and organize which led to the host having to hurry. However, she was still extremely patient with me! I highly recommend this spot!!Bonnie L.

55What a find! My dogs worked their noses and their legs exploring one of the pastures on Michele's beautiful farm. There were areas of sun and shade on a gentle hillside. The fence was secure. Do dress appropriately for walking in tall grass/weeds and possibly manure. We passed goats, sheep, cows, and dogs in other pastures while driving to our spot. Michele is an excellent host and so generous to share her land with other dogs and their people. We hope to visit again soon.RACHEL D.

55Michele is an excellent host and has a fabulously well-fenced farm! My pup loved sniffing around in the morning, but there was also plenty of shade for later in hot days. He even made friends with a cow! Appreciated her letting us sniff around. Thanks for having us!Hannah J.

55Big open field! Note that other dogs are around. But, this is a farm and she notes there are other animals and dogs in her post. Enough space it didn’t really matter and dogs weren’t concerned. Water was left out for the dogs! Michele was wonderful directing me to the right field. Molly B.

55This is a really nice place with beautiful views. My dog had a blast. Probably the largest sniffspot we've ever been to, HUGE open space to run and sniff all sorts of things, and a great place to practice recall. The listing does note some gaps in the fence and there were some toward the bottom of the fence in some areas, but didn't feel it was a big issue, especially with how large the place is. My dog is only 20 lbs so I also probably notice them more than others might, would definitely not be an issue for bigger dogs. I think we both enjoyed seeing the donkeys, cows, sheep, goats, and LGDs. Hope to be back again.Rob R.

55What a wonderful spot! Our dog Reggie had his best day ever romping out in the field and didn’t want to leave. We appreciate Michele’s generosity as a hostess - especially after we got a bit turned a round and arrived rather late. Reggie says thanks again!Laura K.

FAQ about our Louisa 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Louisa 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 234 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 22 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.
