55Our favorite sniffspot yet!
Such a wonderful spot where the dogs ran all around and romped in the creek on a warm day. Doggie bags and trash cans readily available, and multiple places to sit and relax while the pups enjoyed. Can't wait to come back!Susanne B.

55Perfect surroundings, secured parking, and a calm atmosphere throughout. My dog is in heaven, sniffing around the top and lower fields, the winding trails, and the creek while cooling down. He stays within the boundaries and shows no interest at all in the unfenced creek ends. I suppose this is an all-inclusive place with too much activity to keep him busy, highly recommended! Xandra L.

55We love this Sniff Spot! Easy to find and very serene. The dogs loved the shaded play area and creek on such a hot summer day. It was very calm and quiet and we didn’t hear any other dogs, humans, or animals during our stay. Will definitely be back in the future! Cevo V.

55our favorite SniffSpot we’ve visited so far!
Just a really magical spot that I’d probably rent on a hot day even if I didn’t have dogs, haha!
Our little terriers aren’t usually keen on getting wet but they had zero reservations about exploring the shallow stream, especially because the banks/sides are very low and easy to access. We all splashed around and enjoyed the water a lot.
There’s a little path up the hill that leads to another hang out area up above and thats a fun spot to explore too.
If your dogs are big on exploring and don’t have good recall, you might skip this spot or just go in knowing your dogs will have so much fun you might have to chase them down at either end of the stream which isn’t fenced (clearly mentioned in the listing). We hasn’t expected our pups to care about exploring out that far but they were so excited with everything this space had to offer they wanted to see every inch!
This spot goes right to the top of our list and would be a perfect place to have a small gathering for puppy play dates with friends!beth o.

55Our pups had a blast here. Just note that the ends of the creek aren't fenced (clearly outlined in the description). We have "adventurous" pups, so we had to chase them down the creek a couple of times. But it's easy to distract them from exploring with good toys and treats. If your dogs will enjoy a good play time and remain focused, this is your spot. If your dogs are easily distracted or have poor recall, I'd recommend using a long leash. Definitely a 5/5 experience!Micah W.

55Sam is having the time of his life here; when we first acquired him, he was dubbed Huddini; he must be on a leash at all times; he chases anything moving and runs away without being spotted. This is a safe paradise; Sam isn't interested in crossing the unfenced stream limits; the property is fenced and large enough for him to explore inside its boundaries. It's a really well-planned sniffspot with plenty of exciting areas to explore; the play water splash in the stream in hot summertime is a plus!! we also learnt how to take command and let him go about unconstrained, play freely without a leash, and then return to us. Thank you for making the spot available! We will return again and again.Xandra L.

55Daniel's spot is the first my pup has really loved. There are tiny trails where we could practice heeling in high drive areas and a nice open space at the top. The creek was lovely but I wish my girl wouldn't drink the water. Paola A.

55This has been my dog’s FAVORITE sniffspot by far. We usually need to arrange a play date to really make the most of the space, but this time it was just him. He LOVED the creek and kept going back to it. He def tried to escape so keep that in mind if your dog doesn’t have perfect recall (like mine). When we were getting ready to leave he got the zoomies and was tugging at his leash which he NEVER does. We could tell he wanted to stay. Will definitely be coming back here. Maria C.

55Such a fun place for the dogs’ adventure! Water to splash in, paths to run and lots of areas to sniff. The unfenced margins over the creek are easily monitored if you stay with your pups and call them back, so it was good for working on recall. Since the rest of the terrain is varied, 90 minutes with two active dogs goes by fast, and they had such a great time. We will be back, thanks for sharing your space!Pam D.

55Quiet and secluded. As long as you don't have a dog that is intent on leaving, the fence is pretty secure. Part of the water was shaded, which was super nice on a hot day.Megan A.

FAQ about our Happy Valley dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
How can I find dog fields in Happy Valley?
There are 82 dog fields in the Happy Valley area. The most popular dog field is Private Dog Park by the Creek. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends 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. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Happy Valley area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is 1/2 plus acre of fully fenced forest. The most expensive dog field is 1/2 plus acre of fully fenced forest. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
