55My only complaint is I wish there was a broom available on the premises to sweep off the patio when we leave. Luna is a large dog with huge paw prints and I would feel better to clean the patio off when we leave. Luna really enjoys herself and gets tired out. A tired puppy is a happy puppy Paula C.

55This is such a great spot! Adorable yard with well appointed decor, they put a bowl of water out for the dogs and provided complementary dog treats, there was even a little basket of toys! I will definitely be back many times, what a treasure! my puppy had the best time. My only issue was that he hopped up on her outdoor furniture and left muddy paw prints, it took me quite a while to try to scrub them off with Windex and a towel so next time I may bring a protective cover to put down or better cleaning products. This was not her fault though but mine, so still absolutely five stars! Gigi G.

55Small dog approved! I brought 2 Pomeranians for the visit and 1 of them is only 8lbs. The fencing was very secure and I was not worried about him slipping out into other yards. Plenty of seating both on the sun and in the shade. Will definitely be back.Elisabeth B.

55Very cute yard and perfect for two dogs to play with each other. They left out some toys and treats, both which were a hit for my girls. Interact with any anybody or any other dogs while we were there, so felt very private. Easy to find an easy to park on the street. This is very close to us and very central Portland so definitely would like to come back here more often. London L.

55I had the pleasure of bringing my dog to this yard, and it was such a wonderful experience. My dog had a blast sniffing around and exploring the space. It was especially thoughtful that the owner left out towels since it was misting—a small gesture that made a big difference. My dog was comfortable and happy the entire time. I highly recommend this yard for anyone looking for a safe and enjoyable place for their dog to play. We will be back!Joley P.

55Thank your for an easy and fun first Sniffspot experience! Room to play, sniff and very secure. Freeway traffic and train noise were good practice for my pup as we are working on novel noise exposure. Didn’t hear or see any dogs. Becky B.

55The yard is a good size. It was easily accessible and there was plenty of street parking. Zoltar had a grand time sniffing around and playing with his toys. There was plenty of seating for humans to lounge around in while your dog romps around. Madelyn D.

55The indoor private dog park at Good Dog PDX is a wonderful place to play or train your dog(s). It is very clean, quiet, with good rubber matting, water available, and a selection of toys if you want them. Eric was super helpful. We are lucky to have such a nice facility to take our dogs to. Thank you Eric!Catherine K.

55Great spot! My dog is skittish and hates rain/mud and doggy chaos, so this clean, controlled environment suits him so much more than a dog park right now. Highly recommend if your dog is the same. Brenton L.

FAQ about our Portland 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Portland 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 143 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 35 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.
