55Sheila’s spot is great! A bowl was provided for water, a stand with fetch and tug toys, and a nice table to sit at while the pups play. There are a few patches of longer grass, so this time of year just have to be careful of ticks, found one on one of the dogs, but no big deal they can pick those up anywhere. Melissa D.

FAQ about our Newcastle 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.
