55Great yard. Good fence that feels private but still able to see through. And the extra touches like poop bags and wipes were very thoughtful. John B.

55Nice, fenced in yard for our dogs to run! It was really nice and convenient that they included wipes, towels and cleaning for our dogs as the yard was a little muddy in some areas. But of course - we can thank our Minnesota weather for that!
Would definitely come by again!Rebecca L.

55Such a comfortable place to take our dog in a pleasant neighborhood. The inside dogs were totally invisible to us in the backyard.
Very secure fencing. There is some gapping in the fence and it's on a heavily walked road but we used it to our benefit as we've been practicing "quiet" with our animal-aggressive boy. He did great. At the end of our visit an off leash dog even came to that side of the fence and they sniffed each other for about five minutes. It went excellent. We were really pleased that we were able to be put in that position and had a positive result with it. We will absolutely come back again. Diana W.

55This space was amazing! Lots of space for our dogs to run. We brought our 3 dogs and they had a blast sniffing around and exploring. Having a hill to run up also helped wear out our Aussie. We'll be back - thank you!Jenny G.

FAQ about our Prior Lake 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.
