55What a fantastic place for my reactive dog - no stress wondering if we will run into any other people or animals, so much space and so many interesting things to sniff that you don’t get in the city. And most importantly - plenty of sticks. She’s now a very happy and tired dog! We will be sure to come back again soon! Nova M.

55Congratulations to Annie and Jonty for a great venue. We have two rescued American Staffies 4 and 3 years respectively. For ours we felt a long lead was necessary whilst they familiarised themselves with smells in the space. We will returnMaria K.

55I am so happy this is a thing! Diesel is extremely reactive to other dogs, even at quite a distance, so there aren't that many places we can go without encountering other dogs. He had an absolute ball running around all over the place, hunting (didn't get anything lol), and we played some ball. Thank you so much guys, we will be regular visitors :) Cat M.

55Though my dogs aren't reactive they don't get many chances to explore off lead. This place is fantastic! The boys had a blast. The host was great, showing us around. We had all three paddocks to ourselves and they were WELL explored by the boys. They even found a way into the pond and tired themselves out within the first 30 mins. Highly recommend and definitely will be coming back again!Lee R.

55A great time was had by my small dogs, one is a terrier cross so the long lines lent to me were invaluable. They had freedom to explore and I had piece of mind. Will definitely revisit.

55What a lovely spot! Freya is reactive on leash and can get quite aroused by even just seeing another dog. It’s so nice to have a safe space for her to just explore without having to worry about other dogs. The three paddocks are wonderful, we were very pleasantly surprised there’s a duck pond :) Leonie K.

55Love this spot. So much for my little man to run around and sniff and do whatever he pleases. It makes me happy to have this for him, as it's too high risk to let him off leash most other areas.Cat M.

55We didn’t know what to expect as we had never heard of Sniffspot. What we found in terms of a useful space to entertain our dog was brilliant. The different paddock levels made it really interesting for our dog. Many thanksTessa C.

FAQ about our Pukekawa 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 Pukekawa?
There are 7 dog fields in the Pukekawa area. The most popular dog field is Newflands Dog Park. 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 Pukekawa area range from $9.0 and $9.0. The least expensive dog field is Seattle backyard doggie paradise!. The most expensive dog field is Seattle backyard doggie paradise!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
