55We were a party of 8 (!) dogs, five rescue dogs that are owned and three fosters working on confidence. This space is super secure and there are no hiding spots so we had line of sight on all dogs at all times. The fence is super secure, so none of the dogs even thought about jumping it or crawling under it. There is some shade under some trees, and lots of toys and water. This is a really great, safe space for all dogs, even the shy ones!Jennifer F.

55This is our new favorite Sniffspot! The hosts put out poop bags, water bottles for the humans, water and a bowl for the dogs, dog treats, and a bucket of toys. It’s big and the dogs get to run and play with no distractions.Kaitlin W.

55The space is always clean and organized. My dog loves coming here and running around with her frisbee for an hour! The mountain views are beautiful from here and there’s always fresh water available! Brooke J.

55Poppi’s park was so much fun for my pup! There was fresh water (for dogs and dog owners!), treats, and toys to utilize! They even had a herding ball, which my little Zoe loves! Very clean and very quiet, definitely recommend and will be coming back again. Thanks!Sam R.

55Perfect spot for our pup! She’s a very skittish puppy so this place took a minute to warm up to but she ended up loving it! Very quiet, a few people walked by and some barks from fellow neighbors but nothing our brave girl couldn’t handle! We brought some our own toys/water bowl for her comfort but they provided toys and water aswell!! Definitely will be back :)Paula A.

55Clean spot, lots of really nice amenities for pups and humans! Peaceful too.
You can see the neighbors dog across the street, so if you have a reactive dog try and steer the other way. Fence is low enough for tall dogs to get up and over, so we use a long drag lead for extra security. Mallory S.

55Nice, level spot with beautiful views. Fencing seemed secure and was perfect for our puppy who’s still learning to keep close. Lots of amenities and helpful instructions to find the entrance easily.Jessica G.

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.

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.
