55Great open space for my dogs to run. Lots of smells to keep the dogs busy. You can hear dogs in the distance the odd visit but I’ve been to this spot multiple times without issue. My dogs are always tired after visiting Old Yellers and it gives me a few hours of peace and quiet afterwards. Rochelle V.

55Roscoe and I had a great time romping through the field and the wooded paths! He is a runner, so I kept him on a long leash while we investigated, but there is much potential for him to run free after we get to know this area more. Lovely place even in stick season, and there was even a bit of untouched snow that he got to roll in!!! Holly M.

55We had the BEST time today!! The snow and fresh tracks showed us that figure 8 loop of the property that goes up the hill and along the fence. We always used to just walk to the end of the field and back LOL. Thank you so much, Janice, for sharing your property. My boy is getting older and I really cherish days like today with him ☺️
For anyone coming out: It was about -6 to -8 degrees out there today. I wore a lighter jacket with snow pants and the snow pants seriously made a huge difference in keeping me warm and comfortable!
The complimentary dog treats were also much appreciated by my boy! Thank you!Joss M.

55A great place to take our puppy, though some caution and a decent recall are important. We saw a deer on the road part of the walk where it isn’t really fenced. Beautiful, definitely glad we had a long line 😊 a good sized section was also cleared of snow giving our girl’s paws a bit of a break. Brittany M.

55I love heading to this Sniffspot! I’ve been going here since my puppy turned into a reactive teen and it’s such a relaxing time to just walk and play fetch without worrying about other dogs. A significant amount of work has been put into clearing up the property and it’s greatly appreciated! Erica F.

55I was running late and couldn’t extend the time thru the app - when I messaged Janice, she responded super fast and manually updated the time for me. I was so grateful! Another beautiful walk - this time my Dad and his dog joined us too!Chelsea M.

55We abandoned our Sniffspot session today because there were three moose there! We weren’t about to get in their space so we left and Janice was kind enough to refund me! Just a reminder to give wildlife space. Erica F.

FAQ about our Wetaskiwin County 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.
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.
