55Awesome, awesome place! We brought our two dogs (Greyhound & Bullmastiff x) to play indoors on a rainy day. The barn is very clean, and there is tons of space to run around and play. Stephen was a friendly, gracious host who met us when we arrived, and showed us around. He provided clean water for the dogs and a Bluetooth speaker.
We have been looking for a place like this to bring our city dogs for some freedom and fun. We will definitely be regulars here!Tara F.

55Stephen is an excellent dog trainer and a great host! We have 3 dogs, 1 of which is reactive, and his enclosed space provided the perfect opportunity for them to run freely, be dogs and do what they wanted. One chased the ball, one took in all the new smells, and the third loved jumping through the agility hoop! They also appreciated the water Stephen had for them. We will definitely be back soon!

55Easy to find . Great directions. Love the facility and amenities. My dog was so busy on this first visit , sniffing and exploring. We used the outdoor space as well with a long lead but indoors he was free to explore. This is close to home, clean and convenient. We will use again . Barbara M.

55I have two large dogs who one loves to play fetch and frisbee and the other loves to sniff around and just explore freely. The inside barn allows anyone who’s dogs need full enclosure a great space, we opened the garage door and let our boys run in and out, they could’ve gotten through the fence if they wanted to jump over the bottom rung but they did really well and stayed inside (this was stated In the description so it does have large spaces but the bottom rung is low enough to keep them in along with the tall brush) we played our music on the speaker provided and had a great time we will definitely be back.

55We loved Alpha Canine! Large open barn space for dogs to run and play. We appreciated it today especially with the
freezing rain. There was music, a Bluetooth speaker and Stephen had fresh water available. Because its a bran and farm setting be sure to wear something you don't mind getting dirty!! Major and I will be back. I also appreciate that Stephen understood that my Major is wary of strangers so I requested he not meet us in person. Stephen provided prompt and helpful communication and gave me all the info I needed to have a great visit. We are so happy to have this space available!!Alecia M.

FAQ about our Welland 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 Welland 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 116 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 23 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.
