55Great place for my whippet cross rescues to get their crazy energy out,they loved it! So nice not to worry about stress/other animal encounters when training/desensitizing is an ongoing process. Very well maintained and clean! Free of gopher holes and tripping hazards which I really appreciate after a spinal surgery. It's great!Danielle K.

55We’ve used this spot several times to introduce reactive dogs to one another while in a big enough space to play independently. It’s been great for this and owners have been very accommodating. There’s been one lost toy to the small marsh that’s there - be prepared for a wet dog if your dog likes water. Some farm animals in nearby properties, which caught dogs’ attention at first, but they adjusted. We really enjoy the convenience of this close-by Sniffspot with a beautiful view!Kim V.

55Came with a friend and our 2 large dogs had another great run and play. It’s a wide open space for the dogs to run and chase, for throwing frisbees and balls. The pond has lots of sniffing and getting wet (and muddy!) opportunities, another fav with the dogs. There are donkeys across the road which our dog is now used to seeing. There are sometimes folks walking dogs out on the roads outside of the property, again another experience for our reactive dog to learn from and he is. Karen M.

55Wide open field, with space for two dogs to romp. They had a great time. Only problem was they bounded into the little pond - they loved it, but the bath afterwards, not so much!Kim V.

55Our first visit today to water meadow. Great spot with lots of room to run and explore. Our dogs had a great time. The fence was great. Would definitely be a lovely spot to visit in the summer as well. Good amount of trees for shade. Will definitely return!!Candice C.

55Great sniffspot! Good fence though if you have a jumper or climber there is one part that is a little lower at this time (due to the top curling down a little + snowpack making the ground a little higher).
A dog on leash walked by across the road at one end, and a donkey brayed across the street at another side of the sniffspot - I have a reactive dog but with the distance of a road between her and the donkey, and her and the dog & human walking, she was able to stay under threshold and it was a good training opportunity. Plus lots of good distractions and things to sniff and help her stay regulated. (That said, I did put her long line on when the dog walked by across the road, just in case.)
Good amount of room for dogs to run - we had 4 dogs there and they could race around and chase toys or just chill or sniff in the grass or around the little frozen pond and just generally have a grand time.
Easy parking, easy to find location. My parents have been here a number of times before and it was my first visit - would definitely return!Chelsea M.

55Great space! If you have small dogs keep an eye on them as the fence is meant to keep in larger animals (I didn’t think of this beforehand)! My Minnie, tried escaping but luckily she’s a little chubby and got stuck. Other than that and the wind, we had a great time! Nina K.

55Loved it! Our dogs both enjoy water - if your dog is a swimmer, it isn't too muddy, but if your pup likes to splash, be ready to get dirty. We have one of each! The fencing is secured all around, dog bags were offered. We did see someone leaving the house (sorry for our dogs barking) as well the neighbors across the street were out doing yard work (and the donkeys!). However aside from the person leaving the house directly, everything was so far away our girls weren't bothered. They had a lovely open field, some overgrowth areas in the back and near the water for the dogs to romp through, and plenty of shade from the hot sun. We rented the spot for 2 hours, brought some sheets for picnic/muddy dog clean up, and I was seriously considering booking ourselves another hour or two. Fantastic spot, we'd love to be backMalakai M.

55Mountain Side was fantastic! A large field with secure fencing and mountain views! There was plenty of room for playing fetch, running around and sniffing. We’ll definitely be returning! My cattle dog X had the best time!Georgia A.

55Secured enough for my GSD and even taller mutt! May not be great for high jumpers. Saw the donkeys but they were across the street and made some noise but my dogs didn't care too much. We had fun and loved letting our GSD run amuck, chasing a ball (arm throws only - not big enough to use the whippit) while our mutt was happy to sniff & watch the donkeys :)Malakai M.

FAQ About High River 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 High River area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 44 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 55 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.
