55First time at this Sniffspot with my 2 pups and they had a good time! They had fun sniffing around the land. My only suggestion would be to possibly have some more toys available just for the dogs that aren’t too interested in the agility items available. Other than that, it was a great spot! Emalie E.

55We had such a great time visiting with our 3 dogs and baby! Our dogs had the best time running around while our baby got to look at the beautiful fruit trees and plants in the garden. Kathy went above and beyond to accommodate our family. Jacqueline K.

55Second time and fun as always. The water in the pond isn’t the best currently buttttt - my cow dog LOVES IT. Everyone on-site is super friendly. There are people coming in and out periodically so. It ideal for a SUPER reactive dog. I have my Rocky who will literally loose his cool with others and he’s getting better. Exposing reactive dogs to uncomfortable situations is the right way to healing.
Thank you guys for allowing us to share your compound and its beauty!Lorelei F.

FAQ About Vista 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.
