55We loved our time at Old Yellers Nature Walk! It was perfect for our pup to run around and play, and we loved that it was bigger than any other dog park rental we found. It was super easy to find as well, and we appreciate there were sniffpost markers so we knew we were in the right place. We will definitely be back, and plan on making this place one of our regular destinations with our pup. Joey E.

55Lots of deep snow, but that's to be expected with the amount of snowfall mixed with -40 weather and no one out to pack it down. We brought snowshoes and it worked perfectly! Dogs had a blast, owner was very friendly and responsive. Will definitely be back!Amanda C.

55Great visit! I love that the hosts plough a path up the hill and into the field. With the amount of snow we have had, it's much appreciated. The recent warm weather has created a few icy spots but that's to be expected. I'd suggest ice cleats for a bit better footing. If we get more snow, bring some snowshoes, or pack them up to the field and do q round...great exercise! Robbi B.

55I really enjoy bringing my dog here. There is so much of space for her to run. One thing to note is that you can hear a few other dogs barking, this makes my dog a bit uneasy and may be a problem for other people depending on the dog. In the winter I would recommend bringing nice high boots. I will definitely visit again :) Julia G.

55Quiet spot! Pretty icy up the hill so boots with good grips are a must but great experience for my pups! Especially my reactive dog who can seldom be off-leash. The hill blocks off the field from the rest of the property and road, but is not fenced in so beware if your dog is an escape artist. Thanks Janice! We’ll definitely be backEmma R.

55Great spot, lots of room to roam. Snowshoes would be an excellent idea if you want to try to walk the perimeter right now. Otherwise if you stay on the main path it’s easy just with boots. Pups enjoyed every minute!Brittney M.

55A lovely place to go for a walk with your dogs! Janice, I just want to thank you for opening your home and allowing us to enjoy it. My dogs ran and ran (and sniffed and played) for an hour. They are happy, which makes me happy :) So thank you so very much. We will be back!Annie D.

55A wonderful property to lay hound run around. If you are going to walk with your dog to the end of the field in winter, make sure you have snow pants or snowshoes. AJ O.

55Awesome visit! Even with the recent dump of snow, the hosts have gone above and beyond to plough the parking area, the trail to the field and the loop in the field. We brought snow shoes and didn't need them. Looking forward to our next walkRobbi B.

FAQ about our Red Deer 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 Red Deer?

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.
