55We are visiting from out of state and the pups needed to run. We all had such a blast that we came back twice! They especially loved the creek and we appreciated the shade. Kristie L.

55Sniffspot was exactly as described! Perfect for dogs that gravitate towards the water. Spot was secure and nice touch with shed that provided toys! Ideal for 2 dogs that want to chase and sniff. I just brought 1 dog and he got a little bored with just me since he didn’t care for water or chasing balls. Very nice surrounding property!Kathleen M.

55This was our first sniff spot experience and it was perfect! The area was so cute and had lots of places to sit, things for the dogs to do. My dog was OBSESSED with the pond. Thanks for the experience :)Alexa H.

55We have been here many times, and it remains our #1 favorite spot! The yard is large enough for my dogs to run around and explore, but I can still see them at all times. There's always plenty of cold water for the pups, and water bottles for the humans too. My dogs love the kiddie pool, and the ball pit.Kara K.

55My dogs had the best time. They swam they chased each other.... They are absolutely worn out now. This was our first time here but it definitely will not be our last. While it is very very muddy, they have a solar water station where you can rinse your dogs off before going to the car. That is probably one of the best ideas I have seen at a sniff spot. Thank you for opening up your spot!! Phyllis M.

55The place was fantastic, with both iced water and regular water in the water bowls. Big enough for our Malinios to let her legs stretch and run, but also a wide variety of toys and activities for both dogs (13 y/o and 14 months) to enjoy! Will happily come back.Mark B.

FAQ About Candler 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.
