55This was our first SniffSpot and we are 100% happy and will definitely be coming back! It is on a hill side so both pup and I got a good workout in, but there are flat areas. There is a toy bin in the center and bowls through out so if you forgot any of those, you’re able to use. My pup definitely enjoyed the toys! The chickens mentioned are on the way to the yard, but very well contained and were not distracting at all. We are very happy with this experience and very grateful! Esmeralda P.

55Dali’s Desert Oasis is the most fun our dogs have had in a long time! The small trail down to the play area was a little steep so not necessarily recommended for people with disabilities, but if you don’t mind a little trek it’s ABSOLUTELY worth it. Mia S.

55This is a wonderful spot to take your dog. One of my dogs is super reactive and he never gets to run free. When we unclipped his leash he was so confused and then immediately started to do zoomies. josey m.

55There was plenty of space, toys, and water for our pup! He had a blast however he is a tad clumsy and hurt his leg running up the hill as the yards on a slight grade!Adrianna B.

55What a beautiful place! The landscaping was a treat for both humans and dogs. We took their advice to wear sneakers because of the terrain, so walking down and back up their little hill was fine. Thanks for having us!Cris L.

55My dogs are in love with this spot. The iceberg plants allow balls to be hidden which exhausts my dog who had a very sharp sense of smell and likes to pick one ball. While there is a cactus plant, it’s easily avoidable. The dogs love to romp through the bushes and will be very tired for the next week for sure. Bring sturdy shoes and be ready for dusty dogs Emely A.

FAQ about our Joshua Tree 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.
