55This was my first Sniffspot and I was blown away. The private entrance was so welcoming. Once your in the fully fenced area (6ft plus really tall fence) your welcomed by lovely chairs, dogs toys, water, water dog bowl with cool water, and a beautiful view of the pool. When you continue to walk to the pool your welcomed by amazing seating, a second bowl of toys (water toys to be exact), a second filled water bowl with cool water, and a pool house with extra floating devices. The whole ambiance was relaxing, private, well thought, and breathtaking.
I had my two girls with me; Maltese shitzu (10 lbs), relax demeanor; German shepherd (62 lbs), highly reactive, loves to express herself with her voice, and has energy for days. Both enjoyed the Sniffspot for different reasons. I recommend 100,00,000% percent and will be returning myself in the near future.Noemi P.

55This was a delightful spot to play with my dog in a safe, fenced area. The owner provided plenty of toys, life vests, water bowls, poop bags, a trash can for the poop - absolutely everything we needed. The pool was incredibly clean, private, wonderful temperature, and it had a slide. I’m so happy I found a place where I could swim with my puppy!Karen Z.

55Great spot with lovely landscaping. The pool is wonderful. Only one of my pups was interested in going in and he is just learning to swim. But it was well worth seeing how he did. Highly recommend, especially in this HOT weather! Thanks!Nancy M.

55Thanks so much! My first sniff spot was a wonderful experience. The hosts were very thoughtful leaving drinks(for humans too), toys and every size life jacket for the doggie. The yard was large and secure with loads of shaded areas to beat the heat. We’ll be back next week! Kathleen g.

55Beautiful property, kind hosts, a clean trash can to put refuse, water all set up for the dogs. My two really enjoyed themselves! It’s also a nice place to sit and enjoy nature. We will definitely be back! My only suggestion is pay close attention to your dogs so you can catch where they’re going to the bathroom as the property is quite large. Amazing time!Anne K.

FAQ About Shelton 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. 13% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Shelton area are 5 stars.
