55My overexcited pup, Grotto, loved having the ability to free roam and sniff everything. He played so much fetch and was so happy. Loved being able to rinse his paws with those hose after! Mckenzi B.

55Another great visit to Rancho Barto Play Park! The mix of pools (kiddie pool + rock pool) combined with agility equipment and a long grassy yard for retrieving balls work together to make this a perfect Sniffspot.Valerie K.

55Another great visit! Even the rain didn’t stop us from having a great time! As always the many enrichment activities and toys offered at this sniff spot make it the absolute best we’ve been to. Thanks for putting so much thought into it Jessica!
Note on the fencing- we did have one scary moment in the section closest to the road where we accidentally tossed the frisbee outside of the fence. My dog figured out how to wriggle under the fence to try to get the frisbee. We were able to scoop her up and bring her back with no problem though and it was definitely on us for not being more mindful of where we were throwing. The fence is pretty secure and if it weren’t for the frisbee she never would have even tried. She didn’t for the remainder of our time there. She’s also a small to medium size dog and very skinny so this is likely not a concern for larger dogs. Claire M.

55Our pups had a great time! Lots of fun things to sniff and play with. We couldn't find the net for the little pool so hopefully that is not an issue. We also found some glass and picked it up. We will be coming back for more fun times!Amber M.

55We loved our experience! A few things to consider when bringing a small dog:
Boulder areas were fun, but a bit precarious for little or senior dogs.
Next time we will keep our dog on leash in those areas. The open run areas were fine for our senior doggie.
The drive too is beautiful. The space had so many great explore areas!
Highly recommend & we will be back for sure :)Stella S.

55Our two dogs had such a great time! Our one dog is dog reactive so it was nice to finally be able to bring him to a larger area without having to worry. There’s was plenty of slave for fetch and new things for them to explorer. We can’t wait to bring them back there. Kelsey S.

55Our experience here was SPECTACULAR!! Our dog, Rusty, is reactive so there are times when he freaks out at the sound of dogs he cannot see. Rancho Barto is very peaceful and isolated, perfect for Rusty to relax. The space was so large with a cute rocky portion of the yard and a separated fenced green yard with agility equipment. We had so much fun teaching Rusty to jump and run through the many different agility equipment. He was very relaxed throughout the entire time, so it was so nice to see him feel at peace and safe enough to be himself and play. We will definitely be coming back very soon! Thank you, Jessica, for letting us and other dogs and owners use your Sniff Spot!Rebecca B.

55Thank you for the fantastic play area. We had such an awesome time! Our dogs loved it. It was so nice being able to go somewhere new to play without any other dogs (we have one very anxious pup and one that’s dominant/occasionally reactive). We will definitely be back to play. Kelly N.

FAQ about our Cross Plains dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.

How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
