55This Sniffspot was kept very clean, and there was a lot of room to run and sniff around. Fencing is a nice height especially for my pointer who loves to test her boundaries. Toys, sanitizer, poop bags, and water for the dogs/people was left out by the host. Having the pool as an option for the dogs in the summer is super cool. Shayna F.

55We loved our visit! It was a beautiful day & this is a great Sniffspot. The yard was clean, and I was comfortable with the security of the fence.
Finn was thrilled to have both an open lawn & parts that are more “natural” to explore.Libby B.

55Bill’s property was beautiful, well taken care of and landscaped, though my dog’s did not care about that part! It was fully fenced, which was awesome, one of my dogs’ maisy is a flight risk (her nose takes over and she’s GONE) but she was secured, even if she did spend some of her time looking for openings in the fence. And it was totally free from any distractions such as other people or dogs, which was also great because one of my dogs’ max is reactive to people and dogs and lashes out as such. My third dog, maya, found a shady spot to park under after running around after a ball and smelling all the smells with her siblings. There was a trash can on site, easy parking, water out for the dogs, a basket of toys (two of them were happy to find the tennis balls!!), and baby gates up in front of the stairs that led to the main entrances of the house so that my dogs could not get near the host’s home entrances. The blinds were down on the first floor too so that was good too. The host was very nice in our interactions on the ss appEmmett A.

55So great! Really nice yard, my 2 Aussies spent 2 hours running and sniffing and playing. The pool cover is safe indeed. My one Aussie found a hole and got into the pool area and walked on the pool cover and it was perfectly safe, just some wet paws. It was perfect. We will be back!Sabrina J.

55Bill M. & Family’s spot is to die for! We enjoyed the space and it is exactly as pictured/listed. It was easy to find, get in, and had lots of beautiful landscaping to enjoy. Fence is super secure— our biggest concern due to our small pups being hounds and willing to go to great lengths to escape. Can’t wait to come back!Allison L.

55I visited this sniff spot with my dog and my foster pup, and they both had a BLAST! The yard is huge, beautiful, and very clean! The dogs appreciated the box of toys and the fresh water that was left for the them, and the humans appreciated the abundant seating. The pool was not open yet (although my sneaky foster managed to get into the pool area and jumped right in, oops! 😬), but we will definitely be back and will book the pool next time!Nikki B.

55This is a fabulous spot! The yard is complex so lots of exploring for the thinkers but plenty of open space for frisbee or ball retrievers. We opted for the pool as well which was awesome. The yard is lovely, clean, and while I heard distant barking once or twice, my dogs did not care about it. Sharen M.

FAQ about our Shelton 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 Shelton?
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.
