55Absolutely lovely! My dog had so much fun frolicking and exploring. Saw some animal scat (wolf?) in the middle of one of the trails further back which spooked me but other than that a perfect visit. Hosts have many thoughtful touches. Emily M.

55Been here many times. The owners do an amazing job of taking care of the property and providing the best experience for all of us. This spot is especially great on hot days because the trail portion is completely wooded and stays nice and cool, which is really important for my dog who doesn't do great in the heat. I'll continue to visit Black Pond for as long as they continue to offer their property as a Sniffspot. Sang K.

55Well kept fairly flat trails lead to a clearing to play or relax “club zoomies”. Probably not a great spot for anyone with no verbal control over their dog, but the boundaries are clear and easy to follow. We loved it. Spot is well equipped with water, poo bags, and seating.Lindsay B.

55The description and signage made it easy to find. We had a great stroll through the woods and would've stayed longer, but one of my dogs gets real tired in the heat quickly. Will for sure be back. Amy L.

55Such a fun spot! We started by exploring the woods and visiting Club Zoomies. This spot is perfectly set up, with tables and chairs in key places so the humans can take a break too. We finished in the pond, and OH MY DOG—the pups had a blast running through the water. Our puppy even swam for the first time 😊. We’ll be back!Rachel P.

55This place is epic! It took us a bit longer to get there than expected but the drive was beautiful. We went on a sunny Easter Sunday and were met with Easter eggs filled with dog treats - so cute! Nice trail leading up to the open area, felt like we were on a hobbit adventure! Signs are everywhere which helped make the adventure more enjoyable. It was peaceful and just what our pups needed. The zoomie area is great with chairs, balls, water and bubbles! If your dog has recall issues wouldn’t recommend off leash since only partially fenced. Could hear dogs and gunshots in the distance but didn’t bother our reactive dogs much since they were busy exploring! Lovely getaway from city apartment life - Can’t wait to come back again - fun for humans and four leggeds!Lara T.

55Such a well-kept, beautiful space to explore trails and play with the pup. We had an awesome time! Everything was well explained. When we first got there and started walking to the Zoomie area 2 German Shepards ran towards us barking, but they were behind a fence, maybe being walked in the adjacent DNR land. Our dog isn't reactive but maybe for those who are, that would have been triggering. Something to keep in mind, there are parts of the property that back up against publicly used land. We would totally come back here any day!Sarah S.

FAQ about our Bonners Ferry dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are 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 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 in the Bonners Ferry area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 2 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
