55Big open yard. Fully fenced in, but be warned the fence is chain link. Your dog can see everything going on in the neighboring yards (we didn’t see any other dogs) and the fence isn’t the tallest if you have a dog that can jump. Overall we would visit again, no complaints.Benjamin S.

55Frequent flyer here with 2 dog-reactive dogs. It’s a great spot for fetch and sniffs! There are usually other people and dogs out and about on the street, but my 2 aren’t too bothered! Great city space. Meghan M.

55So much fun for our two dogs! One is dog-reactive, and this property offered a great space for them to play safely without another dog in sight. Yard was large and clean, access was easy, and we had a great time!Sydney R.

55This was the perfect place for my dog to run around! We live in the city and having a place where he can run is hard to come by. This was perfect, clean and even had a soccer ball to play with (which my dog loved!). We will definitely be coming back!Nicole Y.

55We loved this space. It was a safe, clean, fully fenced and lovely yard with grass, trees and flowers. We enjoyed playing here with our puppy and also just sitting outside. And it’s very convenient to get to from the city. We will definitely be back.Jill R.

55Perfect yard, totally fenced in and the hosts, if you have the pleasure of meeting them, are excellent. Our little beagle Leo loves to sniff and run and play and with no yard ourselves this place is ideal. Definitely plan on booking this spot more often and you should too!!brian p.

55The description was spot on - we did not hear or see any other dogs in the area, which was great for our highly reactive pup. Plenty of parking made it easy to get to. And our pup loved the toys we found in the yard.Breanna Z.

FAQ about our Newton 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.
