55First time at a Sniff Spot and it was a great experience. My dogs had the best time running through the woods and taking in all the smells. The area was super secure with tall fencing which was great for our escape artist rescue dog. He was not getting out! Everything in the area was thoughtfully laid out - walking sticks, seating area, trails clearly marked, very easy to find. Kathy B.

55We had a great time with our dogs. This was our first Sniffspot visit and we will definitely be back! It was a wonderful place to walk in the woods and the dogs actually had smiles on their faces. It was so nice to just let them run and not worry about how far they went. The fence was tall and secure, and the water pump was handy. Lynn H.

55Atlas had an absolute blast, as usual! Well marked trails that were easy to navigate and plenty of room to run and sniff. There is a place to water your dogs as well, so don't worry too much about them being thirsty after wearing themselves out!Raquel W.

55The dogs enjoyed it very much. Good variation in field and trail. The hill to get down to the park was a little muddy but this was mentioned ahead of time. Our small suv had no problem going through it. Rosie B.

FAQ about our Ridgeland 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.
