55Beautiful place! Wide open fields & clusters of wooded areas. My dog had a great time here, playing fetch and sniffing along the treeline. I could hear dogs barking waaaaay out in the distance, but it didn't trigger my reactive dog. Overall very quiet & isolated. Melissa H.

55Our two boys had a blast running and exploring as far as the eye could see. Didn’t encounter a single other dog or even person! We did spot lots of birds, including two bald eagles! So peaceful to just our dogs run. Kathryn T.

55Amazing! So much space to run. My dog is the happiest (and most tired) she’s been in months :)) there are deer and other animals on the property so unless your dog has perfect recall just be wary of taking them off leash. Overall amazing time! I’ll definitely bring her backCatherine P.

55Perfect spot for pets to explore! Soo much land you could walk forever. This was the happiest my dog has ever been. Plenty of space to let your dog off leash and not worry about them going to the road. I went in the evening and saw deer and a skunk, which was pretty cool. Will be back soon!Marina S.

55It was so nice coming out here with my pup Kuma. There was more than enough space and even though it’s not fenced in you don’t really need to worry about cars or other people coming around. My pup enjoyed running around so much, will definitely be coming back out here again! Allie D.

FAQ about our Hanover 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 Hanover?
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.
