55My dog and I had a fantastic time running and exploring Tony's place! We even got to try some of the agility equipment which was awesome! Location is quiet and the trail path is blocked by a screen if your dog is reactive like mine. We will definitely be back!Hannah G.

55Excellent. Plenty of parking. Giant lot for my big dog. Fun toys and agility training devices. And a host that was over and above.
My 10 month old puppy would not come back to her “master” she was having such a good time. Tony devised a plan to corral her in. Thanks again. Chris R.

55This was an excellent first SniffSpot visit! To see the joy of my reactive dog running, sniffing, exploring off leash gave us both a huge smile the entire time. My shy dog was more confident, even using the agility equipment. Beautiful, natural yard decked out with dog friendly balls and equipment. Loved it! Thank you!Sally S.

55Absolutely amazing. Olive had a blast with the provided toys, we completely forgot to bring some with the excitement of our first ever SniffSpot! This place is HUGE and beautiful. Lots of space and toys and things for your pup to do! One day we hope Olive will have interest in the agility equipment in the yard as well. Water and poo-bags provided! Will be returning as often as we can! Also a wonderful swing that we had a ton of fun with while Olive took a break and a great picnic-table to sit at and watch your pup enjoy!Abigail L.

55Hank loved his time here! So many balls and toys, and lots of water. Although he was a bit too nervous to try out any agility/training equipment, we’re hoping as he grows more familiar with this spot he will become a pro. My partner and I even saw a deer (though Hank was too into all the scents to notice). Will definitely come back.Greta T.

55This yard is perfect! Tons of room to key your dog run and explore freely. The obstacles are a fun option as well. The almost complete shade cover keeps you and your dog cool. The extra toys water bowls and water are super helpful too! You should definitely book this spot for your next playtime!!Tyler S.

55Loved it! They made water available and we love that we get to use the agility equipment. We’ll definitely be returning.
For the herding/chasing dogs: the only thing of note is that there is a bike path adjacent to the yard. There is some black fabric along the length of the fence, but my dog could see people heads flying or bobbing by, and she is obsessed with chasing cyclists and runners, so this gives us a great and safe opportunity to work on that.Tina M.

FAQ about our Apple Valley dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
