55A beautiful property and I visited on a gloomy end of winter day. I cannot wait to visit when the trails around the property are in full bloom. A safe, clean, and beautiful property with unique features to explore. If you have a Velcro dog like I do, bring a comb as there are a few burrs. The host provided all the amenities you could need and answered all my questions. Definitely worth the drive! Jenna E.

55This is by far the best day my dog has had in months, thanks to this farm! This gave him an opportunity to run, play and be free. He has been missing this terribly and is really playing a toll on his overall health. I highly recommend this spot! There are paths, toys and water for the dogs. This is a true kind hearted animal lover at this spot. Thank you for this opportunity, we will definitely be back!Glenna M.

55We had a great time! The winter-groomed paths were perfect for Zoe to play fetch. The toy basket is much appreciated, and so was the Valentine's themed kissing booth! There are also lots little trees and shrubs for sniffing, and a lovely shelter and couch for the humans. Thank you so much Heather!Rachel B.

55Wonderful spot! Fully fenced, lots of room for the dogs to run, play and sniff. The snow was plowed along a trail so I was able to get some steps in too. Was so. Ice for my reactive and highly energetic dog to be able to run freely and get the exercise he needs! We’ll be back.Michelle C.

55Excellent place! Truly 1.5 fenced acres!
Toys are provided & there’s a variety of terrain to explore - low & high ground areas. 💩 bags & bin by the gate, stick library, table & chairs.
My dog absolutely loved it!
I felt welcome there. Loved its proximity to the house. You’re in the country but not isolated; it seems safe. There are some trees, but it’s largely open, which is better with a small dogMargaret Mary C.

55Fantastic place for my dogs to stretch their legs. It’s well worth the drive from Kanata. So large, and so many places for them to sniff and explore. One dog is a 3 legged rescue and the other is blind and yet the peppery is so well laid out there were no issues. You won’t find a better place for your dog(s). Dean C.

55Such a wonderful spot! The yard is secure, clean, spacious and the owner has gone out of her way to add so many extras for both the doggos and the humans to make it a great experience - toys, agility equipment, seating etc. I only wish I lived closer, we’d be there daily 😃Michelle C.

FAQ about our Inkerman 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Inkerman 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 28 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 5 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.
