55We have been coming here since our almost-two-year-old aussiedoodle was a wee-pup. She loves this spot and will race to the gate the moment she's out of the car. Lots to sniff and plenty of toys and water. Her favorite game now is fetch and there is lots of room to run with few distractions. The addition of the gazebo is a nice touch for warm, sunny days.

55Large, beautiful, and well-maintained area. We went whole it was wet and raining which was a bummer (obviously this did not impact our rating since the host can't control the weather) but I was so grateful that there was a large gazebo to keep us relatively dry. My only suggestion is perhaps having a better latch to secure the gate? It didn't seem that secure (although tbh, I might just be an idiot and not know how to operate the latch properly lol). But it was a minor thing, and overall I'm hoping to come back later during a sunny day! Jessica F.

55Hal’s Sniffspot is one of our poodle’s favorite places. She has the space and freedom to run, play, and chase balls (and the occasional squirrel). We look forward to our visits, as well, as the yard is well-kept and the lawn furniture comfortable. Highly recommended!William B.

55The best Sniffspot around! So much space for dogs to run and play, a secure fence all around, and amenities for people too- having a covered seating area is awesome. Best of all, the hosts are friendly and timely communicators. My dogs always love coming here. Kristen B.

55Exactly what the title says...a large yard, a really large yard actually. Even after looking at the listing and photos I was surprised at the size when we actually got there today. It's very well maintained, clean and the fence is secure and private. My boy Cooper is very low key, not interested in toys and doesn't run around too much but he was very busy for the first 40 minutes straight just sniffing and exploring. We normally hike trails or go to creeks or rivers so I was surprised how excited he was here. Our first visit but he started bouncing around in the car like a nut when we were a couple of blocks away. We live nearby so this is a great place for a quick outing. And the hosts are really nice folks which is a huge bonus. Big thumbs up!Susan D.

55This was our 1st time using Sniffspot & everything was perfect! Couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Less than 5mins from our home, our two pups loved exploring Hal & Colleen’s place. We will definitely be back! Such a nice couple, thank you for sharing your wonderful yard with us. Kymberlee C.

55The people who own this Sniffspot are the best! Our miniature poodle was trying to get under the chain-link fence a couple of weeks ago when we were there. We mentioned that to them, and they addressed the situation right away. They now have put a nice border of lattice at the bottom of the fence so it is impossible for our dog to get under. We love this place for our poodle, and so does she. She gets excited when we even mention going to the Sniffspot. I would highly recommend this Sniffspot to anybody! William B.

FAQ about our Tenino small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types.

Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
