55Our pups were in heaven!! There is lots of open space to run and explore. The area is safe and clean and the hosts are friendly and thoughtful in how they have prepared their space for you and your pets. We have been hoping to find a Sniff Spot in the mountains and we will definitely be back for more fun (and likely daycare and boarding with Darlene and Tom!!))Maria M.

55A picture-perfect Sniffspot, not only for pets… but for pet-parents as well! The grounds are completely and securely fenced. The picturesque terrain has lovely ups and downs so a good workout for pet and parent. My dog explored every bit of the area and was hesitant to leave after an hour. The host, Dani, is graciously aware of making the spot inviting for pet and parent, she clearly cares and sincerely wants the best visit for pet and parent. We will most certainly return - thank you, Dani🙏Suzan B.

FAQ about our Sonora 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Sonora 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 49 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 4 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.
