55It doesn’t get any better than this! Our Golden Retrievers were in seventh heaven with the pool and the fully fenced yard. Allison is a wonderful host who provides towels and balls for the pups. Really a nice visit. Thank you,

55Alison was kind and helpful for getting us oriented to her spot. It was a great place to run around, play and explore/sniff! Unfortunately, it was too hot and my pup mostly just wanted to hang out in the shade (and was uninterested in the pond). We will likely be back though on a cooler day.Carmen S.

55Had a great time this spot definitely lives up to the hype…. Sniffspots with water features are far and few….. so glad I made the trek to visit this one, and will return!Calone N.

55Alison's Private Dog Park never disappoints!! Her place also never fails to provide the very best, most fun experience for my dogs and all the friends who join me there for a fun-filled afternoon of playing, running and swimming. I try to book several times a week to keep my pups happy and in good health ;-)Bette V.

55My dogs had a blast running around and swimming. I really appreciate that Allison and her husband allow us to rent their backyard for an hour or two. They are very sweet and accommodating. I will be back very soon Chantal B.

55Absolutely wonderful. Allison and her husband were very welcoming. My water-loving GSD enjoyed fetch in the pond, and our friend's dog discovered he actually could swim! We also enjoyed the large surrounding pasture. Plenty of distance for the Chuckit to send the ball far, far away. Great exercise for the dogs in a welcoming environment. KAREN S.

55The dogs loved splashing around in the pond and running in the field. And it’s always convenient to be able to park inside the fenced area so I don’t even have to leash them up to walk into the space. Thanks for having us!!Aryn H.

55Alison’s sniffspot was so much fun! Our two dogs had the best time running around and playing in the pond. With one of our dogs being reactive, this was the perfect spot to let him (and us) have some freedom and fun without worrying! Alison was very communicative and welcoming as well! We’ll be back :) Kary K.

55Amazing spot! Very relaxing, lots of room for pups to run around and play ball. Nicely equipped, the process was very easy and had a great time with our foster dog. Definitely our favorite spot in the area now. We are canine professionals and would highly recommend, would visit again very soon!Saharai S.

55This is a wonderful Sniffspot. Our dog can be anxious in new surroundings, but she was relaxed the entire visit. Lots of room to run around and explore. There were lots of balls and a few chuck its to choose from. The sitting area by the pond is comfortable and located so we could keep an eye on our dog while she was running around exploring. We will definately be going back. Sarah K.

55Completely secure and worry free. My dog is reactive and always on leash. He had an awesome time running to sniff everything and explore. Watching him have me so much joy. He loved it. We'll do it again and look forward to the day when he can have other dogs with him.Tula G.

55This location was pawfect for Nalu’s 2nd birthday party. All the dogs had something to keep them entertained. Some chased a ball the whole time, some swam and some just watched while basking in the sun. The water wasn’t too deep so even new swimmers felt comfortable getting the ball out of the water.

FAQ about our Briones 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. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Briones?
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.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water 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.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
