55What a wonderful host! Even had a coffee ready for me when I got there! Host was so respectful and understanding upon arrival with our reactive dog so we were able to enjoy a comfortable visit for our pup to run off some steam. Fresh water available, a nice place to sit in the shade and a large lot made us all happy.
We'll be back :)Carly L.

SafeK9 Private Dog Park & Trail - NEW DAYCARE OPENS NOVEMBER 4th. Closing Sniffspot on October 27th. | Sniffspot
55We had fun! Great little trail, and a pretty spot. It was nice to walk and practice some off leash skills without the fear of another dog coming along. Huck loved the sugar shack :) \The only down side to it was when we arrived, the dogs at the training facility were out in the fenced in year barking quite a bit so it concerned my pup in the beginning. But once we got onto the trail you can't hear them. So just be prepared if your dog reacts to that. We would definitely go back!Erika E.

FAQ about our Barrie 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Barrie 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 134 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 22 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.
