55Our dogs had a great time this morning! The field was very clean with a tree shaded area that provided some welcome relief from the heat of the day. There were some anchored tires and a double ramp with a platform for our dogs to play on. It was a fun and stress-free dog outing!Cynthia S.

55Both my dogs had an absolute blast. So much space for them to run around, sniff and play with each other.
Thank you to Megan and her family for allowing us to come and use the space. The dogs had the space and didn’t have to worry about other dogs getting in their space. Thank you! :) Carol L.

55Great place to let the dog burn off a lot of energy. Right beside a dog kennel so your dog must be comfortable with that but it’s fully enclosed. We’ll definitely return. Cherise A.

55My first time using SniffSpot, lovely father helped me to park in the correct spot (right in front of metal hooped building.) Great space for running around. My dog was a bit distracted by the next door barking, but quickly got used to it. Nice! Thank you!Sharon S.

55Nice open space for my pup to run around. There were a couple areas to the right and back of the field she could have squeezed out if she had a mind to. A great space to be actively engaged with your dogDorothy A.

55Beautiful property. Glenn was very welcoming.
Fenced and there are two chairs to sit.
As advertised, there is a kennel next door and the dogs are loud but good training for your dog to leave it.Linda T.

FAQ About Saanichton 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.
