55Kelly’s sniffspot is hands down my girls’ favorite place to be. As soon as we get off the highway they start whining with excitement. I really appreciate how Kelly has added things like collie balls and a ball pit during the time we’ve been visiting. It’s well worth our half-hour drive!Molly M.

55Went for the second time and my boys had EVEN more fun! The pond is great for a lazy water lover, like my golden, and there are tons of fun toys for the less aquatically inclined, like my other pup, there are lots of toy options and plenty of room to run and play fetch.Olivia V.

55The location was easily accessible, very well kept and maintained, and alot of fun for my dogs! They were able to burn some energy before being introduced to a new dog sitter and made a great first impression while having alot of fun in a safe, stress free environment.Olivia V.

55Loved this location - flat and wide open for pups to gallop, small stream/creek to investigate with trail along side, beautiful location and super comfy human chairs. 🌟Kristen A.

55Absolutely wonderful spot! For my dog who never gets to be off leash it was a dream. The fence is in great shape and the place is huge. The creek is great for dogs cool off and provides shade if you need to get out of the sun. This is by far one of my favorite sniff spots I’ve been too. 10/10 on space, cleanliness, directions and fence. Marissa C.

55As always, doggos had an awesome time! They absolutely LOVE swimming in the pond and doing zoomies to dry off after. Thank you for making your fabulous little spot available! Danielle P.

55My pups loved the pond and the diversity of toys. The area is clean and well-kept, and the solar powered rinse off station next to the entrance/exit is a perfect way to clean up your pups — and maybe your own muddy legs and Chacos! — on the way out. Be aware — the shore of the pond is pretty muddy from all the dog play and is eroding, and the water is fairly filled with silt and clay, so don’t expect a crystal clear pond or anything. Still a great space overall with everything we needed for a fun outing. There’s also a tarp that provides shade over a seating area on sunny days. My pups and I will be back!Morgan N.

55I know everyone is sick of my posts, but my dogs absolutely LOVE this spot. As soon as they enter the gate, my girl goes "sniffing" and Chance immediately heads for the water and looks back at me like "come on mom"..... Lol Phyllis M.

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.
