55My dog had a blast! She is very cautious around new people, and Rudy was very understanding and let her “meet” him on her terms. The area is really great, too. Lots of different terrain and places to explore. The fence is very secure. He even offered to help my dog socialize with his dogs on future visits. I really appreciate his approach to training about teaching people how to communicate with their dog and learn how to set their dogs up for success. We’re definitely interested in coming back! Thanks Rudy! Alex V.

555 stars doesn’t do justice. I chose this SniffSpot, to break up my drive back to Houston, because of the space and fun additions like overground dog tunnels.
The “venue” itself is the best one I’ve been to - a secure and expansive 5 acre yard, with all the scents that the doggos loved, an more.
Now add 100 stars for hoar, Rudy. Rudy is an experienced dog trainer, who kindly offered to walk around and share training/dog related tips. It won’t take you longer than 30 seconds to realize he is fantastic at what he does. I’ve never seen my nervous German Shepherd adjust so quickly to meeting a new person for the first time - especially a man. His passion for dogs, dog psychology, and empowering dog owners is undeniable. an experienced dog trainer, he kindly offered to walk around and share training/dog related tip.

This Sniffspot is 3 hours from me and I have no question I’ll be coming back as often as I can. My dogs left happy and tired. I left an enlightened dog owner.

55If we could give Rudy a 10/10 we would! Rudy was an incredible and knowledgeable host. The sniff spot is any dog’s dream play place! Lots of great grass, tunnels to run through, and so many places to sniff! Not only did our dogs have an amazing time, Rudy walked us(my husband and I) around the sniff spot sharing stories about the dogs he is rehabilitating there as well as how he built the area. We are two very happy dog parents. Please run, don’t walk to Rudy’s sniff spot! You’ll be just as amazed as we were! Lauren E.

55This is our favorite go to place to run. I have a Malinois that loves to run hard and fast, and this place allows plenty of it. We get some training done, but this place is for both of us to have fun together. When we get rain, hanging out in the water is my dog’s favorite place to be. Rudy is a great host and we will be back often.Sherolyn C.

FAQ About Bulverde 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.
