55We had a fun time at this spot. This is the first time our GSD actually swam in a pool instead of just splashing around. The pool has a longer shallow entrance, which made our dog more comfortable entering the pool. The yard is large and has plenty of room for full out running. The setup is really nice and as listed/reviewed. Thanks Ned T.

55This sniff spot is the BEST we have been to! Every star is well-deserved! The spot is beautiful- pictures don’t do it justice! We felt so welcome with water bottles in a mini fridge for us, toys for our dogs, and signage was clear everywhere. Thank you for opening your home to other pups! My girls had a blast and their humans did too! Carmen M.

55This spot was delightful! There is a shallow platform that lets your dog get used to the water before they jump in. It was very cleaned and well stocked with everything you need for your dog. Toys, water, shade, and a good amount of grass for running as well. Tammy C.

55What a great place. Everything was marked for entrance and use. Our dogs had a great time. Pool is great, the ledge was the place where Koa would make sure we could not get him out of the pool. He would live in water. We will come back. John O.

55Amazing spot to bring your dog. The hosts have left amenities and supplies specifically for Sniffspot visitors. The yard and pool are clean and spacious. Swimming brought out the puppy in my boy again and I will be trying to frequently come back.Nathan R.

55Perfect spot! Clean, quiet, nice area to run and gorgeous pool. Great signage and amenities. My dogs loved swimming there, and my older pup loved lounging in the shallow area once he got tired. We loved it!Clemmie J.

55One of the cleanest places we go to. This has been a fav for our boy Enzo since last year. When we’re in town we make sure to add it to our list. When we arrived today he started whining to “GET OUT AND LETS GOOO” and then it became a full on scream 😂😂. Greatly appreciated the cold water for humans. Thank you. Liz B.

55This was our first Sniffspot experience and it was wonderful. I have a reactive dog so it’s difficult to find somewhere that is fun and safe and away from other dogs and humans. This was so perfect. There is a huge, well kept yard where my dog could run and explore. He also absolutely loved relaxing in the tanning deck area of the pool under the shade of the umbrella. Thank you so much for sharing your space with us! Kim P.

FAQ about our McKinney small dog parks
Are small 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 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot 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.
How much do Sniffspot small dog parks cost?
Small dog parks in the McKinney area range from $3.0 and $35.0. The least expensive small dog park is Shauna's Private Dog Park In Mc Kinney. The most expensive small dog park is 🫧Hot Tub 🛀 🥰 🐶 Pet Swim 🏊♂️ 🐾. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
Can I have an event or party at a small dog park?
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties 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. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
