55The Pool is amazing! It was a great start to teaching my puppy to swim and the pool design
Made it very inviting to my puppy. My dogs got to also play and run around on the turf.
Thanks so much Shayla! I definitely want to come back. Christina R.

55The Gulch pool allows for a nice little get away with your dog for the afternoon or (summer) evening.
The pool is safe for dogs and the yard is clean. The fencing is safe for most any dog.
Beautiful view! Watch the sunset while your pup swims!

55Nice spot for my dog to learn how to swim her first time. The yard is very spacious with turf for her to do zoomies and play catch. The pool was perfect for the hot day. I was shown where everything was and felt very welcomed. Happy to have such a great experience and time here. Minnie H.

55Wonderful pool designed for dogs with a gorgeous view! Both dogs enjoyed the spot even though the humans were the ones in the pool most of the time. Even though neither dog spent much time swimming, they both loved running and playing fetch on the turf!Eryn V.

55We had an absolutely wonderful time. Very clean, beautiful pool and yard. Ivy is not good with other dogs, so we can't let her off leash or go to dog parks. So wonderful to watch her play and splash freely. She is one tired girl! Highly recommend! KAREN S.

55Shelly had a great time and plenty of room to do zoomies in the yard and play in the pool. She is new to pool swimming and was nervous to get in so the shallower ledges were great for her to ease in to the pool. Reese H.

55The Gulch pool is stunning and the grounds are very clean! My pup and I came with her bestie and both pups had an amazing time playing on the lawn. The pool was great with the small step that even my corgi was able to dip in without fully committing. 10/10 would come back!Lindsay R.

55The pool was very clean and the yard was spacious, my dog had a blast running around! It’s great that there are steps of different heights into the pool for the dog to have time to adjust to the water. Be aware there are visible dogs and chickens, my dog enjoyed watching the other animals but it would be difficult for a reactive dog to be here. Andrea M.

FAQ about our American Canyon 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the American Canyon 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 158 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 22 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
