55The parking and access instructions were clear and simple. The double gate entry was very secure. The fence was in great condition exactly as stated. Lovely experience for our 2 pups to have a play date.

55We had a wonderful experience at Cheryl and Dave's Dog Park! From the moment we arrived, the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings made us feel right at home. The space is incredibly well-maintained and has everything a pup could want, including a small (clean!) pool for cooling off, agility jumps, and a few toys like a frisbee and a Chuckit ball. Our dog, Mason, had the time of his life running free and exploring the space—something he rarely gets to do. It was such a joy to watch him make his own choices instead of exclusively being on a leash while outside.
The secure space allowed us to relax while Mason played, and we appreciated the fresh bowl of water provided for him. There were also a few outdoor chairs set up in the shade that we used to sit comfortably and enjoy the view while keeping an eye on our pup.
We did hear a dog bark but it was so far off in the distance that it wasn’t distracting at all for our dog. What we learned for next time is to bring an extra towel, just in case our guy wants to lounge in the pool again, lol!
We can’t wait to return and create more memories. Thank you, Cheryl and Dave, for sharing your beautiful space with us. We’re sure Mason will be dreaming of his next adventure in this lovely space!

55cheryl and dave’s property was fantastic! it was very clean and the water and toys for the dogs were great. my newly rescued pup becca loved being able to run around in such a large space, and i loved how secure it was and the lack of noise. the area was plenty big enough for her (med mixed breed) to go for a full sprint and she is clearly very tired out after coming here 😁Dylan A.

55Cheryl & Dave’s spot was amazing! Instructions and communication was very clear and the property was even better than I had hoped. They had drinking water set up, toys for my dog to play and chairs for me to sit and relax. It was nice knowing I could sit and relax knowing my dog was safe while she ran around and explored. Definitely looking forward to returning. Jacqueline C.

55This was our first visit. The place was easy to find. The signed on site was clear, parking was free of snow and easy to navigate. the path to the gate was clear and super interesting for the dogs ;-) . The place is big, but it is easy to keep an eye on the dogs running free. The fence is, even for my high-jumping husky, sufficient. I felt safe to just let him and his Malamute "brother" running and enjoying their freedom. Thank you for providing your beautiful space for our dogs. I wish you would provide day care and boarding as well. Katrin B.

55Not in a bad way, but It’s a very simple Sniffspot. Several unfenced hay fields for the pups to run around. It’s bordered by wood lots, so an adventurous pup may go check them out, mine did not. Esther was very accommodating, we moved our time up, so it was nice to get in earlier. Overall a very good Sniffspot.Kirk E.

5510/10 the best spot the west of Ottawa for my pups and I to walk.
I was driving by empty farmers fields just last week and thinking “I wish I could walk my dogs there.” And then this spot appeared on the SniffSpot site! I’m going to buy a lottery ticket today.
Because all dogs and owners like different experiences, I’ll break it down a bit more:
- Wide open fields with the lingering smells of wild animals made my girls happy. They followed their noses. One though, followed her nose right to deer poop and then ate a bit (she is not a poop eater) and then rolled in it (she loves to roll in the poop of wild animals). This doesn’t bother me (they are up to date on all meds and she will have a bath when we get home), but this may not be ideal for all.
- No fences (except for one beautiful gate at the top end of the property). My girls were good about staying within my sight lines. If you’ve got a runner though, best keep them on leash. There are natural boundary lines for the property - meaning trees and shrubbery.
- The back field is mowed but was still a bit long for my smaller dog to enjoy. She is a princess though (surprising as she is 💯 street dog from Barbados - Potcake) and on our next visit will be better able to enjoy it as she will be familiar. Additionally on this note, I would wear my rubber boots or a taller boot next time. I had my dog walking runners on (the not nice ones) and they didn’t get dirty or anything, but more about tick protection and a couple prickly weeds that got my ankles. I did NOT find any ticks but always do a full check on all of us after a walk in nature.
- The owner was lovely to drive ahead of me and show me where to park, and where the property boundary lines are (very clear with the tree lines)Leah M.

FAQ about our Arnprior 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Arnprior 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 24 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 6 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.
