55I am just ecstatic about Bear View Ranch! It really is everything one could want in a SniffSpot: It’s huge. It has a lot of interesting things for a dog to explore and observe: big rocks on side with gopher holes around, a stream of water on another part, a large flat field, a little hill, and all the recent rain has created a small late, and SHEEP on the other side of the fence! It’s clean. It’s totally fenced. And there are no other dogs around. My German shepherd had just the BEST time. Thank you so much Cynthia for making Bear View Ranch available on SniffSpot!Michelle T.

55Cynthia's spot was amazing! My dog had a blast exploring the enormous property and I had peace of mind knowing it was fully fenced in. The view was beautiful and it was nice and peaceful being away from the city. We will definitely be back! Renee W.

55This spot is awesome! Such a beautiful property. Fully fenced and secure. My dog had the best time running off leash. He loved the water and his nose rarely left the ground with so much to sniff. We cant wait to bring him back! Thank you Cynthia for making this spot available!Kim A.

55We love this sniffspot!
It's huge, with rocks, water, and lots of holes to sniff and explore.
This spot has been a lifesaver for my dog who has an awful (working on it) recall. It allows her to be a dog and she comes back exhausted!
Thank you Cynthia! Kyra S.

55The perfect spot to allow our pups who don’t get along with other dogs to run and explore. The area is well kept and clean! The fence is secure and the directions make it easy to find. 100% would recommend to anyone who’s look for a place to let their dogs be dogs. Bailey P.

55We had a great time this afternoon and would have stayed the full 2hrs had my two pups not jumped in the pond! Although they had the best time running free and splashing around. The owner was very responsive and gave great instructions. The ranch is in a beautiful and very peaceful location. Highly recommend. Bring towels, if you have a pup that loves water!Debbie F.

55This was our first time here and we absolutely loved it! Maggie and Zeus had so much space to run around chasing toys and just enjoy getting the exercise. If you want a fenced in area but arent a fan of dog parks, this is the spot for you! We already have our next visit booked! Danielle C.

55My dogs had fun here. One of my dogs adores bouncing through long grass, so he had a particularly nice time. There was plenty of space. He would have been able to get under the gate to chase the sheep if I hadn’t stopped him, but I kept him on leash until he was well away from that side of the pasture and he found lots of other things to be entertained by. The area was absolutely gorgeous and we really enjoyed our visit! Kimberly D.

55So much space! My escape artist dog stayed safely contained in the intact fence. I was a little early in the season for the beautiful green grass but there were no burrs or goatheads in my dogs coats or paws after they enjoyed the many acres of dry grass. Will be back for sure!Christina H.

55Easy, simple entrance, safe fenced in area, great views and a fun opportunity to get photos of your furry friends. If you don't like farm animals, mud, or you have a pup who won't listen well enough to come when called to leave - I wouldn't recommend it. Because honestly, they're going to be having too much fun running wild to listen. No foxtail seeds, which in California is a super big plus for me. Porta-john restroom is always clean which is especially nice because our drive is greater than an hour to get here. Highly recommend.Katelyn L.

55Great!
It’s pretty easy to keep distance between the dogs and livestock. It’s a pasture so there’s livestock poop in the field. There’s active ground squirrel dens. Great for dogs that love to track and dig. Hanna M.

55LOVE this place. With all the recent rain the pasture is turning so green. It’s beautiful! There’s a stream starting to form which my dog had a blast running through. At one point the hosts dogs noticed us and starting barking. But they were just protecting their property. I just leashed my dog and walked further away and she probably recalled her dogs. Multiple fences in between us though! So it was no issue. We will be back! Genevieve S.

FAQ about our Orange Cove 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 Orange Cove 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 59 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 5 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.
