55As usual, a wonderful experience! I'm blown away by how much maintenance and care are performed on the field, fence and trails. There are some muddy areas, and I wore boots, but it was dramatically better than I expected. I cannot emphasize enough how much I appreciate being able to take my dogs (one who is deaf and has limited vision and the other can be people reactive) to such a large, fully fenced area where they can run, sniff, fetch and explore safely. Worth every penny. MARY A.

55We absolutely love this location!!! Best place to bring our rescue dog. He has quite a bit of anxiety from loud noises, which makes the location perfect for him. The area is out in the country away from loud noises - which makes it perfect. We love the open field, the trees and trail in the back. There is even has a water station for dogs!!! We’re able to walk our dog around unleashed and unbothered. Best place I’ve seen so far. Well worth the price. He’s already been twice this week!!! Looking forward to the next visit 😀Sola C.

55We have visited twice, and look forward to going again soon. There is both a large field, and a wooded area with trails. The trails are rugged but we'll marked and fun! There are trash cans, benches, lawn chairs, a water station... Really a fabulous place to bring the dogs. Thanks!Michael N.

55Awesome spot! My dog loved chasing her ball farther than I have ever had the space to throw it! And being able to let her run around on trails off leash in the woods was a rare treat. The field and woods were muddy (as stated in the description) but I didn't mind and my dog loved it. Barb did a great job at introducing us tp the property and pointing out the dryer areas of the field. I also really appreciated all the little bridges the she put up in muddy spots in the woods. Looking forward to our next visit!Adam O.

55It has been years since I've been able to enjoy a stress free off leash walk with my girl Prudence and that is exactly what Nature lovers, frisbee & chuck-it paradise provided! This is an ideal spot for fearful or reactive dogs. We did a warm up lap of the fully fenced field before heading into the wooded, fully fenced, trail system then back to the field for a cool down lap.
Barb was a lovely host, met us as soon as we pulled in and gave us a quick over view of the property, pointing out the best areas in the field for playing fetch, and the entrance to the trail system. Chuck it, water station, and poo station are provided by the host. The trail system is nicely marked with maps and flags though it is easy to go off the beaten path and find your way back.
There is a dog across the street that you can hear bark but you cannot see him. My reactive girl didn't have a problem with it until we tried walking the fence line along the street. She was easy to redirect but if you think it may be challenging for your dog to not engage in the fence barking I would avoid walking that section of the field.
There were 3 marked parking spaces for this sniffspot making it easy to meet up with others. I'm excited to make this a regular walk for my pups as it's only 7 minutes from my house. But even for my dog reactive clients in Bellingham it is well worth the adventure!Amber T.

55This sniffspot is huge and obviously well cared for by the host! We came after the week of nonstop rain, and were well prepared for it to be a bit wet (hiking boots, towels). Fun was had by all, and our pup loved the big field and running around the trails. Great place to practice training! Host was super quick to respond to messages and greeted us for our first visit. Absolutely worth the road trip and looking forward to visiting again (especially after some snow or in the summer!) The fencing around the field was well enforced and honestly the property is so large I didn’t see the plastic snow fencing on the sides of the woods but the host had walked it recently and seemed to often be checking it for any small rodent holes (reassuring to me as my dog is not reactive but is a bolter!) overall, loved this spot! A side note for any dogs that are noise reactive - there was a ‘shooting range’ in the distance that you could hear but my dog didn’t mind at all. Nikki T.

55Beautiful quiet space for my reactive dog. Awesome spot to wear out my dog with the frisby or ball. Great directions to be clear about where to go/park. The shaded benches are a nice touch and it’s nice to have water available. Pony and I will be back, thanks Christy, Noah, and Cooper! Robyn C.

55Wonderful fenced in grass yard with ample distance for our dog and his best friend to get a good sprint while playing fetch. All the dog amenities we needed were available. Tennis balls, chuck-it, a bowl with fresh water, kiddie pool, nice shady spots to rest, poo bags and sanitizer were all there and ready to use. Good parking and benches with shady umbrella to sit and watch. Host even offered a beverage to cool off. Definitely going back again. Ivan S.

55I visiten with my two little dogs and we had a great time. They loved running up and down the trails, checking out the creek, and sniffing all the ferns. The location was easy to find and well marked. Grace was friendly and welcoming and showed us around before it was time to explore. The goats were really cute too. Erin W.

55Very nice and clean area with some trails. It was nice to walk and see the cabins. The dogs had tons of fun. The host was super nice. If you forget your bug spray, the host graciously has a basket with it provided, as well as dogs toys, poopbags, and water. Jelan L.

55Grace was very friendly and met us outside to show us where to go. The property was great - rustic, lots of places for my 2 beagles (and dachshund mix) to sniff to their hearts content. They have never had freedom to safely explore and follow their nose for their natural instinct, so having somewhere big and open with tons of places to explore while being safely in a fence was so nice. Its just the stimulation their brains needed and we will definitely be back! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful land!Marissa C.

55This was our 2nd time here and we had a fun day. The dogs went even further back into the forest this time but with the fence all around we didn't have to worry. Don't forget to wear food shoes because there is definitely a lot of space to explore. Can't wait to come back! Nicholas Z.

55A beautiful and peaceful spot! We loved strolling around exploring the trails and seeing our newly adopted dog run safely off leash and try out wading in the creek. She really enjoyed the freedom and so did we, knowing we had the place to ourselves. There were lots of places to sit for a picnic and even an outhouse. We'll stay longer next time!Sara B.

FAQ about our New Westminster 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.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the New Westminster area range from $12.0 and $12.0. The least expensive dog field is Bell River Ranch. The most expensive dog field is Bell River Ranch. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
