55I recently visited Ponderosa Dog Park. The park is well-maintained, and my dogs were able to have some fun running around and exploring.
Con:
I encountered the presence of a bunch of dogs on the property. While they were secured, their constant barking made my dog very anxious and scared, preventing her from enjoying the entire time we were there.
Despite this, I still left a 5-star rating because the park itself is great, and the issue we faced was not the park's fault. However, since my dog has PTSD, it was not the best fit for us.

55One of the best sniff spots we’ve ever visited!! Not only is the lot so lovely, covered either grass and trees scattered about —but also the agility equipment is extremely sturdy and brightly colored. Our girl has a really hard time relaxing outside, but she had no problem finding shady spots and laying down on her own to listen to the birds around her. We will definitely be back ! Emily C.

55This spot was great. My pup absolutely loved it. The space is large, the agility equipment was sturdy and they had water available along with poop disposal bins. You may hear dogs barking from the kennels in the back, but none were seen and barking was limited.
There are two driveways to two different parking areas. There is a gate to the agility park from each parking area. I did miss the first gravel drive, but if you taking a right at the curve, the second parking area is located off that road to the right. Kelsey G.

55This was my 2nd time to this spot. It is a very lovely and secure spot. Probably not a good spot for very reactive dogs though. My first visit there were 2 dogs in a pen that shared a fence with the Sniffspot (the 2nd time they removed the dogs when we pulled in). There are also a few dogs across the street that were at the fence barking. One of my dogs is leash reactive, so she was okay once she adjusted and did some decompression sniffs. There is also a table and benches with an umbrella so you can sit and have a snack and someplace to put your stuff.
I imagine I'll be going here a lot this summer. There are lots of large trees so it's really shady and nice. Tain R.

55Great place to let my dogs run! My GSP has a lot of energy and very poor recall so having a secure fenced area for her to run and sniff is a must. We will be back. Suzi B.

55Great space, our dog was panting and exhausted by the time we were done. Our pooch is dog reactive, and there were some neighboring dogs across the street that distracted him, but it was a great safe opportunity to expose him to other dogs from a distance (about 200-300ft away if you were as close as possible in the fenced area) and redirect his attention. Area was very clean, fence was secure, we will 100% be returning here.Brandon H.

55My husband takes our dogs out to the field to run ususally 2 days a week with GPS collars. I do not feel comfortable running my dogs like that so I bring them here a few times a week. They get almost as many miles walking this property as they do freely running the trails. My dogs LOVE coming here. This place is a gem :) Camie Z.

55Very nice place, a pail fresh water was waiting. It would be nice to be able to rinse & refill, tho. Nice long field with trees allowed my pup to get to top speed. Plenty of shade to cool down in as well. Matt O.

55I did have one issue, but the owner fixed it and enjoyed the remaining time I had.
The park is very big with well maintained agility equipment. The grass seemed recently cut and the area was mostly poop free. The fence was about 4 feet tall and had 2 entrances/exits. There was a combination of sunny and shade area and had a picnic table for people to enjoy along with dog poop bags and a pail of clean water.
The one issue I did have was one of the employees of the business the parks are on left his German Shepard unattended in the park I had reserved. It took me awhile to find someone who wasn’t the employee who owned the dog then ran into the employee who did own the dog. The employee who owned the dog was extremely rude and unprofessional trying to waste more of my reserved time by leaving his dog in the park even though I showed the confirmation multiple times that I had the park reserved. After reaching out to the owner, the problem was solved and I was able to enjoy the 40 minutes left in the reservation and the owner gave me a free reserved time and addressed the employee. This made me confident in reserving this park in the future to enjoy, but with knowing how that employee is there would not want him around my dog to expand my pet care to using the business that owns the area.

55What a great spot for your dog to run and play! The grounds were clean, fully fenced and well maintained. I met a worker there name Serena who brought my dog fresh water while we were there. Luke enjoyed the agility equipment and we will be back in a couple days with his friends for a playdate. I definitely recommend bringing your dog(s) here for some fun. Luann K.

55This was our first visit, and we look forward to coming back regularly! We rescued our fur baby and have been getting to know him and working on his anxiety and reactivity. We booked the regular Sniffspot adjacent to the kennels. It was good practice for him to see and hear other dogs in a safe way! Rae L.

55Good space for the dogs to run and trees that keep it shaded. I normally pick the agility side, but I wanted to try this side since I know it lines the kennels. I have somewhat reactive dogs and this was great practice to have them here and playing while other dogs are watching them or maybe barking from the kennels. I enjoy both of the Pets Ponderosa sniff spots and so do my pups! If your dog really can't deal with distractions, then this side may be difficult, but I find it good for training!Casey P.

FAQ about our Graham dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends 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. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Graham area range from $16.5 and $16.5. The least expensive dog field is Michelle's Private Dog Park In Graham. The most expensive dog field is Michelle's Private Dog Park In Graham. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
