55We had a great time playing and doing a short training session in the dark. The arena lights are nice for switching things up and getting desensitized to the different sights, sounds, and smells that happen later in the day. Thank you for another great visit!Jessica D.

55Wow, what a fun location! We aren’t sure if the fur child or human child had more fun! Large, totally fenced in play space did not disappoint! Place to use the restroom for the humans, fresh water hose, plenty of toys (we brought our own balls and what not), tunnels, agility structures, and a giant mound of dirt! That happened to be our pup’s favorite spot to lay when he got tired lol. Definitely booking a sniff here again!!Nathan M.

55This spot is just the right size for my whippet mix. He loves to sniff all over and get in some good runs. I enjoy the peace and quiet and relaxing in the bench swing while he explores. It's secure with both sun and shade and places for humans to sit, even a space that is covered in case rain falls. Everything you need to have a fun hour with your pooch. Soon we will find Oscar a pal to come with so there can be some good playtime. Visitors may appreciate the agility equipment, supply of balls and chuck-its, water supply, double gate, even an umbrella in the covered spot. This has been a lifesaver in my adopting a young, active dog at my not-so-young age. Thank you!Melody G.

55A well crafted field for dogs to have lots of fun! Balls + chuck-it, tug rope, agility apparatus, giant dirt pile, and a ton of running room. My only complaint was how dirty everything was. (I understand how our winter rains help propel dirt everywhere but our dog actually avoided mouthing anything.) The “human” seating was really too dirty for sitting. The water dish & hose were greatly appreciated. We even had a short lived hailstorm but were comfortably sheltered by the giant fir & cedar trees! It was extremely well constructed for security & safety.Bobbi R.

55Great little area for pups of all sizes! The spot was clearly marked with signs from the street so it was easy to find, and the parking area was also clearly labeled. I loved that it was a double gate to get into the area similar to a dog park. Plenty of different items, and spots to sniff to keep your dogs entertained. There is a hose and a bowl set out for water, which I appreciated! Hope to come back again soon. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe.Ashley A.

55A fun sniff spot! My 3 Greyhounds had a great time running around investigating. This spot is fully fenced, clean, and has a covered area with chairs. My dogs loved the big dirt mound. Great place to dig. There are lots of fun agility equipment for all the dogs to enjoy. We’ll be back for another visit soon. Sorry we don’t have any photos we were busy playing. Marta H.

FAQ about our Tumwater 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 Tumwater 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 188 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 31 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.
