55This was a great fully fenced area for my dog. Some grassy areas, some tree areas, tall fence, and a poop bags and trash provided. Very clean in that regard. Some dirt areas due to spring, but my boy loves it. Plenty of room to run and fetch and lots of things to sniff. I love being able to bring my reactive pup to a place I know we can both relax and he can be a dog and we can work on training.Jessica P.

55We were looking for an open, fenced area large enough to let our dogs run flat out, herd their balls without getting them stuck, and fetch balls without losing them. This Sniffspot was exactly what we needed. We had tired and happy dogs. Even though it rained previously, the ground was not very muddy, and we didn't see any dog poop. The host was very gracious and detailed in explaining how to find and get into the Sniffspot.Melinda H.

55Well-maintained, open field with secure fencing and some areas with trees for extra sniffs. Spigot for water creates a fun muddy area, but the rest of the field is grassy and dry. While we were there, a trio of people getting horseback riding lessons went right along the fence line, so just a heads up if your pup is interested in large animals! Dogs barking from the host (dog boarding facility) were definitely audible, so something to note if your dog is very sensitive.Kei T.

55Great first experience with Sniffspot! It was extra chilly that day, so the frosty ground meant less mud! On the flipside, there were a couple icy patches so watch out if you have an extra speedy puppy. Celine B.

55My friend and I brought our dogs here and they had a blast! Rolled around in the dirt, chased each other, and sniffed allllll the spots. My dog barked a ton at the dogs at the boarding facility but still had a good time.Mia H.

55This is a great area for dogs to run free. It is adjacent to a boarding kennel, but in a separate fenced area. We heard dogs barking for a few minutes, but they were far enough away that my pup did not even care. Fully, securely fenced. We all had a great time, plenty of room to run and explore. Definitely a spot worth visiting again. Also, it was very clean - no other dog poo even though it is a large area. Allison B.

55This was a great spot! We will definitely be coming back. The entire area was fenced and I never worried about Zooey getting out. The area was clean and well cared for. I was able to relax and bond with my puppy. There were noises she wasn't used to, so we were able to work on our training with distractions exercises. It was a wonderful time for us!Allison R.

55Excellent, clean, safe space for my reactive dog to run around. Despite the wet weather it wasn't muddy because of the nice ground cover they use. Their dog boarding facility is nearby but it's far enough apart that my dog didn't mind it at all. Nice host, easy to find, will definitely come back here! Emily S.

55This is the best place for adventurous and mischievous dogs. I have a dog whose main goal in life is to escape. It's her favorite past time and this was a very stress free environment for us. Large and 100% secure! Plus they use a heavy duty ground cover so it's not very muddy at all! Worth every penny if you need the space and a highly secure location. Highly recommend.Kristen R.

55This was a great spot for our dog and we will definitely be back! He got to run like crazy and it was securely fenced. We had a lot of fun watching him. My mom's dogs were there as well and they enjoyed sniffing around and exploring. There are dogs nearby at the daycare/boarding facility so if you have a very reactive dog that would be an issue. But it said so on the listing so we were prepared for there to be other dogs on the property. It's all fenced off though, and it's not like the dogs are right on the other side of the fence, they are simply on the other side of the property. Our dogs were fine with it. Great time all around!

FAQ about our Lake Forest Park 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.
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 Lake Forest Park area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is Bella's Home. The most expensive dog field is Bella's Home. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
