55Pool area and water are very clean, considering that dogs use it often:) My two pups and I, esp my senior dog (13yrs) enjoyed the pool and patio. There are toys, water for dogs and humans, and poop bags provided. I was able to enjoy the warm pool water with my senior dog, whose favorite activity is swimming. She is not able to go in the ocean anymore, so this was a wonderful find!Candice S.

55First time getting our pup to swim and although he didn't like swimming so much it was a great spot to learn how. We felt comfortable and safe. Very tall fencing which we appreciate for more privacy. Next time I would bring a body board for him to stand on so we can both enjoy the water together. Thank you for sharing your space with us and the life jacket. We will be happy to come visit again. Heidi H.

FAQ about our Alameda dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
