55Rachel greeted me when I arrived and was warm and welcoming. The trail is clear and had cute little nooks to sit and enjoy the view. My dog was safe and very very very happy to run around the property! We'll be back!Christine B.

55We had a great time here, trail was clean and peaceful, lots of room for our girl to run around. An hour gets you about 3-5 laps around the trail depending on your speed and taking breaks. We will be back again!Colton P.

55Area was very clean (did not see any dog poo on the trail), and fully fenced as advertised. I saw two garbage cans (one beside the dog toys to the left of where you park), and another beside one of the 3 benches I saw along the trail. I was able to pull my little one in a sled along the groomed trail, while my dog could happily roam without having to worry about other dogs.
My one comment that others may want to know is that the property is not 5 min from Stony Plain. It is closer to 15 minutes (from the centre of Stony). Even if you are driving from the furthest west side of Stony, it is at least a 10 minute drive. Naomi B.

55Rachel’s place is great - nicely maintained trail, very clean, and lots of open space in-between for your dog to have some zoomies or sniff around. The google address provided makes it very easy to find and is quite close to the city. The property is well fenced and even double fenced down low if you have a small dog. Great experience and very good host! Thank you!Abby G.

55OMG my 3 dogs and I had such a great time. With 3 dogs of varying ages, sizes and walking styles it was a wonderful place for everyone to be able to go their own speed and explore. Thank you! We will definitely be back!Jozie N.

55This was our first visit and my two had a wonderful time. Trail was great for my sniffari lover and the open space was perfect for my ball-obsessed guy. Nice to have another safe space for off leash fun. Sandy M.

55This is a great spot if you have multiple dogs as you can drive right in and close the gate behind you. Rachel sent messages with directions before I arrived. Her Sniffspot is wooded with paths for walking and there is an open area if you want to play fetch with the dogs. Definitely a great spot.Bethany B.

55We decided to try this spot out for the first time today with our 1.5 year old lab and it was fantastic! A great walking trail for her (and us) with plenty of woods to explore. Fully fenced, as advertised, making it a great spot to practice recall too.Heather C.

55This place was amazing!!!
I was so nervous bringing my dogs of leash for the first time but it was really impossible for them to get out. It is completely fenced in.
Nothing bigger than a big chihuahua could get through the holes in the fence….maybe 4in x 4in.
The trails are super clean and so much fun!!!
There was toys and poo bags we could use.
Will be definitely coming back :) Maria G.

55After a bit of confusion (the park is the whole perimeter of the property and not the OW private dog area) it was a great walk. Like others have posted, the fencing is great, the path is nice (maybe a figure 8 will happen in the spring?) and there isn’t much to be distracting.
The dogs enjoyed jumping over trees and exploring (mostly looking for squirrels or mice). Good overall experience.Carly A.

55We had an amazing two hours! It was so nice to let my nervous boy be off leash exploring not have to worry about any of his triggers. The trail in the trees was awesome for sniffing and the open areas where great from my fetch obsessed boy. Will definitely be back :DBrielle C.

FAQ about our Carvel 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.

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 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.

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types.
