55Today a foolish squirrel taunted my dog and my dog climbed a tree to try to get the squirrel. So, uh, if your dog likes to climb trees (!) this is also a perfect Sniffspot for that!Bree D.

55Amazing spot with an agility course and toys. It was fairly quiet while I was there, which is good for my reactive pup. There are a couple of places dogs could see out, but the main part of the walking trail was blocked off, which really helped. Great expierence.Alisa K.

55This is an amazing place! Completely fenced in with tall & secure fences, with black tarps on the fences near the trail to visually hide any dogs/animals that might walk by. My puppy and her friends had a wonderful time running around and exploring. There were jugs and jugs of water provided with huge water bowls. The property itself is perfect because there’s an abundance of trees and plants for dogs to explore and a peaceful creek running by. I will be coming back here regularly! Eunbee C.

55Fun place to take your dog! I didn’t see how to get access to the creek. The fence doors had locks on them. Still a great place for the dogs to play. Hannah Z.

55We loved this Sniffspot! The owner has a really nice backyard with lots of enriching activities. Whoever was there before us didn’t pick up their dogs poo. I picked it up but wish guests would do better. JENNIFER N.

55We really enjoyed this Sniffspot! There was plenty to do- my wiener dog really enjoyed the agility equipment and my lab/pit mix is too timid to try any of the equipment yet but she had a blast running around smelling everything. I was very glad there is a privacy screen on the fence next to the trail- there were two groups that passed by when we were there (on Labor Day in the afternoon while it was beautiful out so I was surprised there weren’t more people around) and I was able to distract my people reactive wiener dog enough to keep him from causing too much of a commotion. My lab/pit mix loved showing off her kangaroo jumps to the people walking by. I kept my small wiener dog on a leash while we were there- when he is motivated enough he can escape from just about anywhere and there were a few spots that I was concerned he could dig his way out of quickly, but I felt very comfortable with my larger dog off leash. We will definitely be back! Gretchen A.

FAQ about our Fridley 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. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Fridley?
There are 21 dog water parks in the Fridley area. The most popular dog water park is Rice Creek Sniffspot. You can browse all of our dog water parks here.
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?
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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water 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.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
