What is Snouts & Stouts?
At Snouts & Stouts, your dog will be able to run around our indoor dog park, off-leash, while you can sit back and relax with a beer in your hand.
As dog owners who frequent the dog park, the biggest concern is always the weather. Rain? No dog park. Intense heat? No dog park. Intense cold? No dog park. Even if the weather is fine, our dogs always come home dirty and need a bath.
Well at Snouts & Stouts weather and dirt is never a concern! Our massive indoor dog park, with specialized K9 turf, means that no matter the weather, your dog will be able to play and not need a bath afterward.
Indoor dog park? Won’t it smell? Nope! With our specialized K9 turf and flushing system, Snouts & Stouts won’t actually smell like a dog park, but will look exactly like one!
We will also have our own “Dog Patrol”, that will be walking around making sure all dogs are playing correctly, having fun, getting enough water, and picking up after them. This way you can relax and grab a drink!
Managerial and Ownership Staff are Certified Professional Animal Care Providers (CPACP) by the Professional Animal Care Certification Council (PACCC). Employees are trained by this staff along with the Dog Gurus Training Program. Snouts & Stouts takes extra steps to make sure your dog is always in safe, trained, and knowledgable hands.

FAQ’s
Do I need a membership to get in?
Snouts & Stouts is always free to enter for people, but to bring your dog in, you will either need to have a membership or buy a day pass the day you come in to gain access to the premises. This is for the protection of our human and furry friend guests. You can purchase a membership online here.
Is is truly an indoor dog park?
Yes! You may notice other establishments in the area claim they are an indoor dog park, but when you go check them out, the indoor part is either very small or does not seem like a dog park at all.
At Snouts & Stouts, we stand by the claim of being an Indoor Dog Park as we have 6,000 SQFT of open and indoor space that is always climate controlled.
All dogs are REQUIRED to be off-leash when inside of the off-leash park.
Will it smell or be really loud since you are inside?
Not at all! Snouts & Stouts is designed to stay extremely clean and comfortable for both dogs and humans. We have hydrophobic flooring that prevents odors from lingering, and our team performs spot cleaning throughout the day to address any messes immediately. In addition, we do thorough deep cleanings every day using veterinarian-grade disinfectants to ensure a pristine and hygienic environment.
As for noise, our walls and ceilings are equipped with soundproofing to allow dogs to bark and play freely without the noise becoming overwhelming for you. It's all part of creating a safe, fun, and welcoming space for everyone!
Who are the "Canine Rufferees" ?
Our "Canine Rufferees" are our employees that will walk around Snouts & Stouts to make sure all dogs are following our rules of play, making sure they are having lots of fun, getting enough water, and picking up after them.
