55We had an amazing time. The yard is beautiful, the boys had a lot of fun sniffing and running around.
I felt my boys were totally safe here.

55We enjoyed our visit to this spot, and it's larger than most of what's available in Orange County! Though it's cool and grey today, one of my dogs lounged suggestively in the empty wading pool until I took the hint and put some water in it....so thanks for that, too. :)Eliza R.

55This spot was perfect. Large area and lots to sniff. They were able to play ball and explore. When 2 Malinois are so tired they lay down, you know this spot is a great choice for dogs with no off switch. I will visit again every time Iβm in town. Lindsey F.

FAQ about our Fountain Valley 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.

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.
