55Sherri and the staff were awesome! She took me for a tour of her place and things to watch out fore before letting the dogs go into the fenced area. For example, the horses that are on premise (fenced in) as well as the on leash trail. P.S. There is a "safe area" that separates the pool and the fenced area that we were in - our dogs were able to see other dogs that were in the pool area - we left early because the dogs got a little bit anxious because of that. Other than that, it's a very well kept place and we look forward to going back soon!Heidi G.

55Sherri was an amazing host. We had a blast there. I informed her before going that one of the dog we have is reactive. When we got to the facility she gave us an amazing exclusive space just for us and our two dogs. She was very welcoming. We went for one hour booking and end up extending it for two hours. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. Marriam A.

55We had a great time playing with our dog in the large fenced field and they even offered us a nice little bag of doggie treats for her. Our pup was quite interested in barking at the beautiful horse that was visible but the horse didn't seem to mind. Sarah I.

55This place is HUGE and my dogs had a blast. It's a massive open field, there is some shade provided by 1 tree in the front portion. There are a few more trees in the back end. The fencing is secure, and water/poop bags were provided. I had some trouble finding the place (Apple maps couldn't find it, but google maps could), and I wasn't sure where to go once I got there, since there is what looks like a 'dog park' right at the front of the property-- but its much smaller than 2 acres and shares a fence with golden retrievers. Here's a tip: You need to drive up, park, and walk through the white fence (there's a small gate). You need to walk your dogs through the white gate, and straight through to the back where the big field is. You'll know you're in the right spot when you end up in a gated field that shares a fence with a horse paddock and the dock diving section :) Alex J.

55This place was absolutely fantastic! Super cute farmhouse with a giant fenced field just for us! Easy to find and easy to park. Sherri greeted us and put out a big pale of water for the dogs. We didn't see any other dogs other than the owner's dog, which was in a separate fenced area. There is a horse in a fenced off pen attached to the field. We'll definitely be going again.Erin B.

55We had some awkward moments but my puppy loved the open area to run and the tall grass to explore in. He slept the whole way home 👍
Would be helpful to have some signage up since I wasn't quite sure where I was supposed to be going. And then we had to walk to the other end of the property to get my puppy away from the family that was moving out of the motor home and had to drive through the fenced area.
In the end my puppy couldn't run for the full hour and was very happy with his bit of freedom while we continue to work on his recall.Jessica B.

55What a fantastic spot! Large open area for our dogs to play and trails through the bush. Perfect! Lisa was so kind in offering us towels if we needed after our play and her hubby let us visit with their alpacas, which was the highlight of the day! Will definitely be back!Sheryl M.

55Such a beautiful spot in a rural area. The instructions to get here were clear and simple. Lisa made our booking easy and replied very quickly despite my last minute booking.
The property is a large family farm style with tons of wooded areas on a trail in the back. This area isnt fenced 100% so id suggest your dog be well trained off leash to have off leash time there.
There is also a nice fenced in private area that is available. My dog had a blast running around here. On the other side of the fence is an area with cute and friendly alpacas...my dog liked looking at them a lot :) if your dog is very reactive to other animals i think a 40lb or smaller dog might be able to fot under the gate to the alpacas so id keep that in mind.
i think he enjoyed a lot of mental stimulation here, well worth the price! We will be back in the future!

55The place is lovely, the host is very kind and responds fast to any messages, and oh, the adorable farm animals (alpacas!! goats, ducks, etc.) were such a delight and so well-behaved. Took two of my dogs here and one of them had such a wonderful time taking in all the sights and scents, but the other became way too obsessed with the alpacas and would not stop trying to sneak in to the alpaca enclosure through the gap under the gate (you can see the size of the gap within the photos here, so we knew to watch out for it) so be wary if the dog you're taking is hyper-reactive! The alpacas were so cute and chill throughout our visit though, and my less reactive pup was so happy here, she did not want to leave! :)Rain S.

55Great place to bring our dog-reactive pup, guaranteed to not run into other pups! Beautiful space to explore around and the enclosed area is great for an off-leash play. We kept our reactive one on a long line as he was on a mission of scaring off the alpacas (cutest most curious fluffs!) and I didn’t want him to get any ideas of going under the gate (I don’t know that he would have, but better safe than sorry!) The alpacas were indifferent about my little maniac. We will definitely be returning! Angela S.

55My dog enjoyed barking at the alpacas more than running in the fenced in area! There are 2 gates into the fenced in area, one is between where the alpacas are and where your dog runs. I had to stand and guard the gate between him and the alpacas because he loved them so much I knew he would squeeze himself under the gate. Beautful property. We walked on the forest a bit but we came a day after it rained so it was a bit muddy. Teresa B.

FAQ about our Alliston 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. 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Alliston area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 265 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 38 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
