55Second visit to this Sniffspot & it was great fun, again, for Teddy. He enjoys all the different terrain; short grass, tall old trees, ivy, blackberry brambles, etc. This time there was new bark laid out to make a clear path from the gate to the main yard. It looks very nice & made it clear the path to take toward the water bowl, poop bags & garbage can. Great Spot with secure fencing. We plan to come back!Jacki D.

55First time here and we enjoyed it! Signage was easy to follow and I had no problem getting in. Since it was our first time here, my pup spent her whole time sniffing the place but that’s great too, she was tuckered out. Will come again! Daniela V.

55Lots of fun chasing a frisbee on the upper lawn and hiking the trail on the lower wooded area. Also enjoyed hopping up on the big retaining boulders to take the “short cut”. Great spot, clearly marked as others have noted, relaxing vibe, all around fun SniffSpot. Thanks!Yvonne S.

55What’s good - host put out water, toys, treats! It was clean. The spot has a lot of potential!
However, we drove from Seattle and expected to have a whole 0.5 acres to play in. The available area was much smaller because the majority of it is covered in thorny overgrown plants that dogs could potentially get hurt playing in . My dog chose to stay on the lawn, which was the smaller patch of play area! This spot could be a great place if cleared up well, because it has multiple levels, and a small hill that could tire a dog out from playing! Shilpa S.

55Such a great spot, my foster dog had a blast! Lots of space to play, a cute little trail to walk down into the woodsy area, and there was a pool out to splash in. The hammocks are super relaxing, and the yard has a nice mix of sun and shade. Amy S.

55This is a fantastic neighborhood spot. The host set us up perfectly with some great amenities. We enjoyed some good fetch and lounging around. Only heads up is it may not be the best spot for fence jumpers as you can easily see into the neighbors yard. Other than that, I highly recommend this spot!Victoria D.

FAQ about our Malahat 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 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.
