55Otis had a great time at this Sniffspot! The directions to the spot were clear and easy to get to. There was lots of room to run, play fetch, sniff, and explore. Otis wasn’t too interested in the agility equipment but it’s a great addition to the space! Note, there are livestock dogs and farm animals in the adjacent property, in case your dog is reactive. They weren’t nearby so it wasn’t an issue for my dog but just a fair warning. I would definitely bring Otis here again!Brittany F.

FAQ about our Waterloo 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.
