55Very nice, clean, quiet spot! My dogs loved playing and getting their zoomies out! I really appreciate the black covering around the fence, especially since my one is a little reactive. It also provides nice shade later in the evening which is great for hot days.Bre I.

55A very calm, clean, and welcoming environment to let your dog enjoy running around/hanging out. Water was kindly left out and easily accessible. Leah S.

55It was our first time visiting, and my pitbull had an amazing time! The place had so much space for dogs to run around, and it felt super private, which made it even more enjoyable. Watching him explore and play freely was such a joy! It really was a perfect spot for a fun day out with our furry friend!Meron M.

55So much fun. Had water out for us. Toys to play with. Chairs to sit. Clean yard. Hoping 6 Schnauzers wasn’t too loud for owner and neighbors. Kristin B.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot and it was great!
The yard was the perfect size for our boy; clean and stocked with toys and treats! Also came with a cute welcome sign and a pet-mess station for easy pickup.
Had one surprise with their kitty making an appearance in the window, which excited our pup, but it quickly went back behind the curtain and it really wasn’t an issue.
This was a great first experience, and we were so happy to be able to give Jimbei some time off-leash outside. Since we brought him home almost 2 years ago, this was his first time having space to just be a dog outside! Buddy is tuckered out and snoring as I type! As long as they’ll have us, we will definitely be back to Happy Hounds! Sarah A.

55What a great experience—such a perfect spot! It was super clean, open, and spacious. We really appreciated all the thoughtful touches too: clean toys, doggie bags, hand sanitizer, and even treats. Ollie and Ivy had an absolute blast and are totally wiped out now. They’ve always had a yard and a doggie door, so being on a leash 24/7 since we moved has been a big adjustment. Watching them run free today was the happiest we’ve seen them in a while—it meant the world. We appreciate you and we’ll be back!Christina B.

55Today is my dog’s four year Happy Gotcha Day. Our hosts at Happy Hounds made it all the more special for Govita. She had so much fun as did my friend and me playing with Govita at Happy Hounds. Always clean, welcoming, well maintained and stocked with dog goodies. Danielle E.

55Awesome Sniffspot! We foster a lot of challenging dogs including flight risk dogs and reactive ones and the 6 foot fence with covering has been great for both! We have one flight risk dog in particular who will hide under things so I appreciate that there’s nothing for him to hide under and the yard is roomy enough to play but not too big that I can’t keep an eye on him at all times. We’ve also used this Sniffspot to have our foster dogs meet new people. It’s been great and host is wonderful! Rebecca J.

FAQ About Apple Valley 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. 2% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Apple Valley area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 221 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 400 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.
