55This was a great experience. It was our first and because the dogs had such a great time (my children as well) it won’t be our last. Our sweet host came out to introduce herself briefly and to make sure we had found where are the supplies were. Treats, towels, toys, etc., it evident that the owners love dogs! My Golden Retriever and Chocolate Lab were wore out in the allotted time slot and slept peacefully the whole 45 minute car ride home. I will definitely be back, I’m thinking maybe dusk, date night?Tracy B.

55We will be regulars with our 3 pups. Carol is a welcoming host and an obvious dog lover. The property is lovely with varied terrain, sitting benches, toys, water and trees for shade. Didn’t find any ticks either. Big bonus!! Christine L.

55My pups had an amazing time in this safe and secure yard. Lots of new smells and places to explore with amenities for pups and their people. My pups especially enjoyed the kiddie pool! We will definitively be back. Next time we may use the BBQ and plan a picnic!Claire E.

55We had a great visit at Carol’s property! It’s so nice to be able to let your dog run and be a dog without having to worry about other dogs behaviors. The place is very accommodating, with toys, fresh water, lots of shade, chairs, a bbq, and a picnic table! It’s clear that Carol put a lot of love into making such a wonderful spot. The views are wonderful as well! We’ll definitely be back! :)Ashley B.

55This is an incredible oasis for dogs! We took our dog aggressive pup here for an hour to really play and run around. We got to throw e ball, catch frisbees, run, chase and play without the worry of other dogs or hazards. The thought put into this location is remarkable and well worth the price and drive to visit! We have one tired happy pup!

55What a great private dog park! Our Marley loved it! They are setup with toys for the dogs, fresh water and even doggy treats for the pup! There are plenty of spots to sit throughout the property with lots of shade….let your pup run and have fun while you relax on one of the many benches in the shade and take in the gorgeous view! The host Carol came and greeted and was friendly and personable. We definitely will

55Carol's passion for this space is evident! She was a perfect host even with my gnarly feral guy. My dogs loved this, next time I will get more steps in too. It's beautiful! There is a grill & picnic table that would be great if you want to meet up with other dog friends or just your family...dog exercise & dinner at the same time!Tamara F.

55Nice trails- backs up to DNR land, allowing for lots of trail time.
Easy in and out. “Club zoomies” was cute- a nice mowed open field; great for field play.
Water features exist- is a pond as in the title. Don’t expect moving water.
A nice place to walk and play. D D.

FAQ about our Bonners Ferry 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 Bonners Ferry 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 2 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
