55My boys had a great time exploring the wide open space. It was easy to find and the owner was there to greet me and give me the scoop. He even had the fire going on this chilly day which was nice. My one guy is dog reactive so i am happy to have found this private fenced in space. The owner’s dogs were slightly visible from the backyard and vocal at times but there was enough distance that it was not a concern. We will definitely return. Sandy M.

55Very open, spacious, and clean. Nick was there to greet us on arrival and had a fire going, which was great to sit around on a chilly day. There are paths cleared in the deep snow, with a loop around the park. Our dog is reactive to other dogs and this spot gave us peace of mind, our dog left tired and happy. Lauren J.

55Bear park was great! Willow had a great time getting to freely run around and play fetch without the worry of other dogs. Nicks park was clean and fully fenced. Nick was polite and made sure we had everything we need. We had a great time and would highly recommend this spot!Jade P.

55It was wonderful! Went with my friend and our dogs, we walked and chatted while they played, and we brought a picnic lunch to share. The on site chairs are lovely! It was a gorgeous way to spend the afternoon. We went for three hours as we have very high energy breeds, and it was perfect! Her and I both went home with tired and satisfied boys. Olivia S.

55We just had a wonderful walk at Old Yellers. Our dogs loved the smells and wide open area to run and chase each other. For us, it was a 20 minute drive from door to door so that was ideal. Brilliant info provided by the host to ensure you know exactly what to do / expect when you get there.
We will be back for sure to this little piece of doggy heaven.

55Beautiful acreage, clean and lots of open space. I just really needed somewhere secluded and private with minimal distraction to work on a tandem leash for the first time with both dogs, this was perfect for that. I’ll likely book again soon for training purposes as one of my dogs is a working dog and comes with a lot of liability so a spaces like this are great for us. Only downside is the driveway to enter is a little rough and muddy and some of the grass is long enough to lose your dogs in for a brief second but otherwise loved it! Gage J.

55Beautiful acreage with tons of scenic views. So much room for the pups to run around and a lot of variety in the spaces for them to explore. Janice was also extremely accommodating to our family’s needs which was very much appreciated. We will definitely be returning! Marta C.

55The dogs loved our most recent vist! I'd recommend bug spray and if you have water dogs be ready to ride home with some wet dogs!! Our boys found some puddles and they loved every second of it!Daryene S.

55Really lovely spot! It was easy to navigate to, the sniffspot logo signs were super helpful. Janice went above and beyond providing garbages, long lines, bug spray etc. I was comfortable with the fencing, but my dogs have solid recall, I definitely wouldn’t rely on it. Can’t wait to go back (maybe after mosquito season though - haha) Shae M.

55I cannot wait to come back! Janice was so welcoming and provided all of the information needed leading up to and the day of our appointment. There were long leads and bug spray available which was just above and beyond. The property itself is beautiful and a dogs paradise. Different heights of grass and so many smells. It was such an amazing experience.Jenna C.

FAQ about our Fort Saskatchewan dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends 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. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
