55First time using Sniffspot and this location is great for both owner and pet! I was able to sit in the chairs that were provided with a good amount of shade while my dog did his thing! Was very peaceful as well, some toys were made available as well as dog bowls and filtered water! Would absolutely recommend Aaron F.

55First time trying Sniffspot and we loved the experience. Especially loved the dogs next door who were sweet and fun for my dog to see and interact with through the fence while she did zoomies around the yard. We will be back with friends soon! Greta P.

55We had a great time. Parking is right out front and the gate entry is easily accessible. Fence is high and well maintained and I had no worries about my 90lb dog escaping. Yard was well kept and nice and flat. Chair in the shade for me and a water bowl for Lady made for a great time. No other dogs to distract which a big plus for us. 10/10 Would recommend! Heather F.

55Ali’s yard was a perfect size to tire out my English Bulldog. Instructions were clear and easy. My pup enjoyed the time spent here and we appreciated the water she left out. We will be back! Thanks Ali! Emily L.

55Allison was very helpful and accommodating of a last minute visit! This was my first time using SniffSpot. Ren loved all the open space to run around, and there were fantastic smells to smell! Allison had a ton of toys left out, there is seating for humans, and she even left out some bug spray since the mosquitoes do come out at night this time of year. Hope to visit again soon!Victoria C.

55This is exactly what my sweet dog needs in her life!! Tinley absolutely loves new smells and to sniff but is shy and gets overwhelmed at dog parks sometimes. She had the BEST time sniffing the grass and running around! The host has a very well kept yard (no weeds or hazards at all!) and even left a bowl of water, some poop bags, a trash can, treats and a bottle of water for us which we definitely took advantage of! Tinley is trained to not go potty in yards so I took her for a short walk around the neighborhood before coming back and it was so nice to have the trash can out there so I could discard her poop from the walk before getting back in the car. We live in a high rise so this is such a God send! I will definitely be back! Christi P.

55Los Locos really liked this spot. There is plenty of space to stretch out and run and even a bit of jungle to explore in the back. There is plenty of shade too. There are two Black Walnut trees. We have these in our yard too and Los Locos never play with the fruit but those with chewers should know they are not good for dogs. I think dogs naturally avoid them. There are lots of hackberry plants and Los Locos LOVE these. They are healthy snacking and if your dog gravitates towards eating the leaves no worries. I posted pictures of what they look like. The fencing is secure. Lots of fun was had!Gina C.

55It was such a nice spot! My dog loved running around and sniffing stuff and chasing the birds. The fence is super tall which is great because our dog is a jumper. Would definitely love to come back, our dog enjoyed it so much she was tired out after only 30 minutes. It was big enough to throw the ball and play fetch too! And lots of nice seating for the humans 🙂Kelley M.

55Very cute, clean yard with lots to sniff!
The neighbors and host both have dogs so keep that in mind if your dog is especially reactive. Though the host is very kind and said she’ll try to keep her dogs away from the window moving forward! Nothing anyone can do about neighbors, so it’s just something to keep in mind.
Overall this yard was great! Though my reactive dog struggled with the other dogs for a couple minutes, this yard deserves 5 stars :) Heather D.

55We're working on our dog's reactivity to sounds and this was the perfect space for it! Just enough space for her to discover new-to-her scents and sounds, but secure enough to give her a bit of leash to explore on her own.Kristine C.

FAQ about our Nashville 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 Nashville?
There are 106 small dog parks in the Nashville 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.
