55This was my 4th Sniffspot and favorite one so far. The drive-out on Sauvie Island is lovely, and the host was very communicative about how to recognize the spot. The property is wide open and the 4 dogs had plenty of room to run, fetch, explore, and romp. This location is how I imagined all the Sniffspots would be! After an hour of play, I had a very tired and happy Corgi. Lori H.

55This is a fabulous space with caring, kind hosts. A parking area and picnic table are set up for sniff spot guests. There is a mowed path along the upper bank of the river and the field provides lots of running. A great space for a dog to explore and a human to relax, enjoy their dogs dogness and breathe in nature. Cassie R.

55My doggie clients get so excited when I tell them we are going to visit your farm. They love running through the fields, swimming in the ponds, saying hi to the horses, birds, and cows. Lots of wide-open spaces for my friends to enjoy, but fenced and contained well. The scenery is gorgeous and it’s well-groomed trails make it especially easy to navigate. I love the drive to your place as well. It’s a magical experience!! Thank you for opening up your farm to us. We really appreciate you. Mary E.

55Great location and lots of room to roam. Super foggy when we were there so we couldn’t really see all that was available. But that didn’t stop us from having a great time. Will definitely be back!Reina R.

55This was a nice big area to get a good walk in. I was especially excited to see sand hill cranes flying overhead. We also saw some pintail ducks and a bald eagle. It was a very pleasant time.Susan N.

55My dog loved it! Great to practice focus training in the back where cows are on the other side of the fence. Bonus river dip for him too! Owners are very nice and spend time to help you navigate their land. Alix S.

FAQ about our Cathlamet dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Cathlamet?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park 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.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
