55Maggie and Patti LaBelle had such a nice time here. Julie has a lovely setup for both dogs & humans. It was awesome she had a sprinkle pool and a regular pool even though my dogs are boring & didn't go in. 😜 But they had fun on their sniffafari & in the sandpit & occasional zoomies. The yard is very secure and her instructions were spot on. I'll be back, it was worth the drive!Deb S.

55Perfect spot for doggy play date. Each of the four dogs found something to entertain themselves with. The dogs really enjoyed the pool and water feature, the sand box was also a huge hit. Was very clean, had toys, poop bags, and did not have to worry about a dog escaping. Definitely will return!Nicole H.

55A great place to bring a reactive dog! Very quiet and calm area and the only noise you’d encounter is a car or 2 passing by on the road. Julie included everything you could possibly need for you and your dogs including sunscreen and a pet friendly bug fogger!Natalie L.

55This is the BEST Sniffspot I’ve ever visited and my two 1-year old, high energy, crazy canines agreed! There are SO many fun toys (my pups LOVED the large herding ball), different obstacles, and sooo much space to run. The pool and sandbox were a big hit! Not to mention it’s ultra comfy for the humans too! It’s such a beautiful space & two hours flew by! My fiancée and I will definitely be bringing the pups back soon! Julie S.

55We loved it! The place was so nice and relaxing. Zara loved the toys, splashing in the doggie pool, seeing the horses, sniffing all the trees and most of all playing with the giant soccer ball! 😂 got some cute videos of her and pictures. We will definitely be back soon! Thank you so much.

55This was our first experience with sniffspot, and it was amazing! Julie's place was everything we could have hoped for and more! We have a very hyper and anxious dog so safety is very important. Even though it was a 50 minute drive, we chose her place because the amenities and safety measures were unmatched. Kati Y.

55The location was big, private and very secure. There was a lot of shade, and everything you would need to have a great time with your pup like water, toys, garbage, seats etc. My dogs had a blast and burned lots of energy! We hope to come back soon. Jehan B.

55Another great time at this spot. Dogs were so happy running around and playing in the pool/sprinkler. The owner was also kind enough to understand when I messed up on the booking time. Can’t wait to book a doggie birthday party!Rose H.

55Our two big dogs have two very different personalities - highly anxious and highly aloof. We cannot bring them to dog parks and our yard is not big enough for them to really run. Golden Pines was perfect! They could explore, run, chase, and just be themselves. They even got to meet the resident horses! Amazing exposure! Thank you for sharing your space for great dogs like ours! Jen D.

FAQ about our Ripon 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ripon area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
