55My 2 dogs had so much fun! There were a few neighbor dogs who came by the fence to say hi, probably not great for reactive dogs, but the fence was very secure. We will definitely be back! Rylie M.

55What a fantastic alternative to sketchy public dog parks!!! I have a very high-energy, 7mo Bernedoodle puppy that needed a safe place to run, play, and be a dog without the encumbrance of a leash. Our trainer told us about Sniff Spots, and out first experience was even better than expected. Our host was incredibly gracious. The acreage was beautiful, grassy (no mud - amazing for the Pacific NW!) and fully fenced. My pup Kthma and her BFF Maverick spent a full hour running full tilt, sniffing, rolling … having the time of their young lives! Thank you Daynakin Large & Giant Breed Dog Care and Sniff Spot; this will certainly become a regular routine!Robin H.

55A lifesaver especially on a very rainy day. There was an agility course, chuck its balls, space heater, my dog was so happy and is napping hard now. I will definitely be booking again. I love that there is a locking door I have a very reactive dog and he was able to be free for an hour what a blessing. Whitney W.

55This spot is fantastic! It's not a massive space, but plenty big enough for my 70 lb pit mix to run around after a ball or frisbee. The spot was easy to get to and the agility equipment was so much fun! Cornelius couldn't figure out how to jump over the single pole but he jumped through the hoops just fine (with treats to guide him of course). Zoe W.

55We celebrated our dogs 3rd birthday here and it was the perfect space for it! Nice size for the dogs to play, it’s not heated but they have a space heater and is plenty warm. They were so kind by leaving out birthday hats for the dogs, treat bags and a nice birthday ball for our dog! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend this location for a play date or birthday party for your four legged family member! Jill J.

FAQ About Ferndale 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.
