55My pups had a great time as always! They swam in one of three ponds and sniffed themselves to their hearts content. This is such a wonderful place to work on recall and mental enrichment. They use their nose and get good exercise. I LOVE Canterwoods Farms . Alisha Z.

55Great spot for our English Pointer! We love that our dog gets to run free and that she is safe since the property is fenced. Love the horses too! Meghan M.

55This place was fantastic! A beautiful piece of land to walk with your dogs. Our dogs had the best time playing in the ponds and running in the woods and meeting the resident horses and ducks. Would definitely love to come back! This property has it all! Beverly D.

55My dog always loves coming here over any other outing we go on. He’s almost 15 now and I feel so safe bringing him here knowing he won’t be run over by more energetic dogs. It gives both of us a peaceful beautiful walk together. And our favorite place is between the two waterfalls. Thank You! Katherine L.

55Cash and I did a quick visit to check it out for the first time. The property is beautiful. Cash had never seen a horse before so I kept him on leash while passing them. After that, he was free. No worries about the property being secure. I will be back with his little sister very soon!Rick R.

55Our pup Velveeta had the best time at Canter Woods Farm! She is super high energy but not great with other dogs, which is why I looked into Sniffspot originally. This was our first Sniffspot reservation and it could not have been better. We live a little over an hour away from Canter Woods Farm, but the drive was definitely worth it, and we are already looking forward to our next visit.
My husband and I brought our bikes to ride around the property - I recommend hybrid/mountain bikes and sneakers for anyone who plans to do that! We also brought a leash, water, treats, dog shampoo, and towels. Velveeta met the horses, who are super sweet. She loved being able to run as fast and as much as she wanted to. She also swam outside for the first time! My husband and I were shocked and delighted that she ended up paddling around Honey Dip Pond so much.
After almost two hours of running, biking, swimming, and enjoying the patio, we used the wash station to clean off Velveeta. She is one tired pup tonight!
I also want to commend the hosts for all of their helpful information, the maps of the property, the extra waste bags, the trash bins at key locations, and for sharing their incredible property - it was really a gift to get to enjoy it. Katie R.

55First time using SniffSpot and Canter Woods. Our dog, Penny had a great time. She is a shelter dog who is very reactive to other dogs. This worked perfectly. She ran about, went for a swim, avoided the horses and just frolicked like a dog. LaVonne S.

55The property is lovely. The dogs had such a great time doing zoomies all around and dipping their feet in the pond. We haven’t giggled that much watching them play in a long time. Thank you for sharing such a special place.Syndi M.

FAQ about our Vero Beach dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
