55We love SniffSpot, and we love this yard! First of all, it's kept spotless, and it's only minutes from our home. There have been no dogs in the adjacent yards, and we've rarely heard another dog from a great distance in the neighborhood. The fence and gate are nice, and it even contains my 11 lb. Papillon escape artist. It's the perfect environment for our shy Australian Shepherd to gain off-leash confidence in. This is an awesome alternative to a dog park for us! Thank you for making it available. We'll be regular customers.Kristi N.

55We loved our visit! The yard was clean, well kept, and spacious. The fence was secure without any holes. The neighborhood was also quiet. There were lots of toys and a water bowl available for my dog to use. I’m so pleased and grateful to have found a place to take my reactive dog to safely get his energy out. Will be booking again and definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a secure sniff spot! Kendall A.

55What a lovely space! The yard is big and clean. There were plenty of toys and a water dish left out for us to use. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. We heard two dogs during our entire visit. Didn't seem to phase my super reactive dog. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back.Bailey N.

55Our second time visiting Cheryl’s yard and we had an absolute blast!! Tons of open space and sniffs. She loves running across the yard like a little rocket. The only difference between the first and this time was we heard a neighbor’s dog bark a couple of times in close proximity, but never actually saw another dog. My reactive girl didn’t pay too much mindSatchel B.

55We loved this!!! The girls had the best time in this huge space! The host thought of everything too; you could sit on the little patio space, they had toys for the pups, a water bowl, hand sanitizer by the poop station that had a foot pedal trash can, their dogs were put away, and the owner gave great instructions about the entrance and exit!Ashlee W.

FAQ about our Shelby Township fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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 are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Shelby Township?
There are 266 fully fenced dog parks in the Shelby Township area. The most popular fully fenced park is . You can browse all of our fully fenced dog parks here.
How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
