55It was our first time using sniff spot so was unsure about it.. when we arrived there was a sign with my name on it and welcoming us there, that little gesture made all the difference! It was a quiet area, plenty of room for the dogs to run around. 10/10 will rebook! Thank you!!!! Carleen B.

55Lovely welcome sign with fresh water, sanitizer, bags, and a few toys. The yard was fully fenced and had sooo many smells for my 2 guys to explore. It was a beautiful sunny day and I have 2 very tired pups. We will definitely be back!Kim W.

55Although my boy wasn't very interested, I appreciated there were a couple of doggy pools with fresh cool water for him. It was a hot morning and is a great feature for those pups that want to splash around! Thanks again!Kim W.

FAQ about our Penticton 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Penticton 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 6 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 1 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.
