55Plenty of running space with paddocks that had short and tall grass, and some water and toys! My dog had the best time exploring and running in the fully fenced paddocks. Great option for dogs that don't have the best recall or need space from other dogs! Will definitely be coming back :)Rhianna M.

55A great spot for my reactive dog to roam freely. Both doggos were exhausted - a good outcome! Toni was super accommodating and I felt she really understood reactivity in dogs.Di O.

55Easy to find. We parked in front of the gate which was hopefully the right place. Gate opened inwards so we had enough space for one vehicle. Dogs loved all the different smells from farm animals that had been in the paddock previously and the little group of trees kept them quite busy investigating. Would’ve stayed longer, but our boy tweaked a hip injury while we were there (not related to the property - he just over did it). Only neg comment is prob that sniff spot doesn’t seem to advertise in NZD. Must be USDFiona F.

55Perfect. I've been hoping a spot like this would open somewhere near for a long time. Our two Bullmastiffs had a great time exploring, running, watching the ducks and the planes. John B.

55Fantastic spot! Entry from the road.
Lots of space to roam. We were able to close off a section for our dog which suited us well.
Trees on one side for some shade on sunny days. Very close if you live in the Albany or Hibiscus Coast area Lewis K.

FAQ about our Taupaki 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. 92% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Taupaki 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 4 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 2 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
