55Great spot to let the dogs run and play without worry. A lot of people had comments about the style of fence and that it was broken. We had no issues with any of the fence being broken but it is a farm style wire fence (pictures can be seen if you click through the images on the site) so if you're not comfortable with that type of fence I would check out the pictures before booking.
The only thing that would be great is if there was a parking lot as right now you have to park along the road but we already knew that before booking so it was fine.
Overall we had a great experience and would definitely book again. Shouldn't have to state the obvious but we booked in April. There are puddles. There is mud. IT IS SPRING. So if you go in the spring be prepared for a dirty happy dog after your visit. Taylor H.

55Southridge Dog Spot hosted by Clayton M. was fantastic! We were first-timers, so had no idea what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Spot was easy to locate and seems to be managed really well. The area was big enough to allow the pups to run around but not big enough that I couldn't keep my eye on them. I was also re-assured that the fence was, indeed, secure. Therefore, I could enjoy my visit with no stress. Will be back for sure! Terry D.

55Great spot to have a walk around with my girls! Was introduced to it through the rescue I'm fostering/adopting from and even the rain couldn't stop us!

55I visited the spot on May 2nd with my 2 aussies, and we had a blast. The spot was clean and everything was in perfect condition, as always. Tip: remember to wear rain boots - this is is a big open field, and we are in the middle of spring! Catherine D.

55Great updated gate to get into the park, love it! It is still well maintained. If you have a long coated dog avoid the little hill, there are some burrsMaëva L.

55Our dogs had a great time! It was clean, fully fenced and lots of room to sniff and run. There was some noise from the traffic on the road nearby but it wasn’t too loud at all! Would definitely come back! Téa B.

55This is a great, large, safe space to let your dogs run! After an hour and a half running with her bestie, Dottie has been sleeping the last 6 hours! Just make sure you wear rain boots in the spring :)Jessica G.

55Our dogs had a great time! We’ve had a couple of negative experiences at the public dog parks so we haven’t been going, but it means they don’t get a lot of opportunities to run. They loved running and sniffing without limits today. Thanks!! Madeleine G.

55We had a great time at this Sniffspot. It was the first time in a long time that my dog reactive dogs have been able to be off leash. They looked SO happy to be running through the field and cooling off in the muddy “pond” (more like a big puddle). Will definitely be coming back. But to anyone going - bring towels if your dog likes water because we went during a DRY spell and there was still a decent amount of water there. Hayley I.

55This spot is lots of fun! Really wide open space in the back part, beautiful country scenery. Pretty easy to find, just had to park on the road which can be a little busy, but there’s a big sign to indicate the entrance. No disruptions throughout the visit. Mary H.

55It was our first time, and my dog Bear had an absolute blast! He loved exploring the pond, the hill, and chasing his ball in the huge field. Bear is reactive and doesn't get along with other dogs, so we will definately be coming back to this spot!Rachel P.

55Great space. There is a field section with mowed grass, a mountainous section with longer grass, rocks and trees and a small pond- a win for my 2 Cane Corsos. The car ride hope was peaceful with 2 smelly but exhausted dogs😁Nancy A.

FAQ about our Nepean 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Nepean 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 22 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 6 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.
