55It was an absolute pleasure using this space. They greeted us at the beginning and ending of our session. They also provided poop bags and bucket of toys.
Our senior dog is reactive and doesn’t get the opportunity to go off leash very often. So seeing her run through and sniff the leafs was so much fun to see. Most of the fence line blocks the surrounding view. You could hear some neighborhood barking in the background, but it was a distance enough to use as a training opportunity. As Louise was tiring out towards the and, a large dog appeared to start running on the other side of the adjacent fence line in the section that had more visibility. We decided to wrap up our session a little early. We weren’t worried about Louise escaping, but a smaller dog or escape artist might be able sneak out with some of open clearance underneath the fence or hiding under the porch.
We’re grateful to have the opportunity to use the space and hope to be back in the future. Bridget A.

55My lab had an awesome time here. Tyler came out and greeted us on our way in and warned us about the gate sticking a little bit and some neighbor's dogs that might bark (they did but the neighbors brought them inside). There was fresh water, a bucket of toys, poop bags, and plenty of room to sniff and run around. This is a great off-leash option in the Portland area!Nicole P.

FAQ about our Portland 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.
