Reviews
We just recently visited Snouts and Stouts for the first time a few weeks ago and it was the perfect decision for our dog Bailey.The establishment is kept very clean and all of the dogs have a great time playing. The staff there is very friendly and professional. Daniel the owner is very hands on and involved with the business and the customers. Most importantly is that Bailey really loves it and has a blast each time we go and gets excited when we get close to the place. Also it is very affordable for what they offer.
This is a really great spot for pups to play.
The facilities are cool. The people were great. The drinks were good.
Why only four stars? The food was not good. My burger clearly came out of a box and must have been microwaved as the center was cold in that special way that only a microwave can do. My wife’s “loaded” tots were also cold and certainly weren’t loaded; just some cheese on them with an unusually large dab of sour cream. My French fries? Also cold. 😞
Despite the rather disappointing food, I will certainly go back; my pup had a great play time and I enjoyed a nice cold beer.
I’ll just make sure I’ve eaten first.
I absolutely love this place! The staff at Snouts& Stouts is incredibly professional, and the owner even brings her trained dog to help guide and correct behaviors when needed. My puppy, who is only 10 months old and full of energy, was not only welcomed but also given valuable guidance on etiquette. The owner and her training dogs demonstrated techniques we can use at home, which was so helpful.
Everyone here is kind, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what they do. My pup had an amazing time playing with other dogs in a safe and well-managed environment. I highly recommend Snouts & Stouts to all dog owners—this is an incredible spot for socialization and learning! We’ll definitely be back!
Update (2025): Really bummed to see Canine Cardio’s involvement in this establishment. They are not a trustworthy business and I’ve seen many incidents with their staff and dogs they brought into local Alexandria/Arlington parks over the years. I would use extreme caution with Canine Cardio—I’ve witnessed more than enough things to never trust my dog in their hands.
I was very impressed by everything! Huge space (two levels for dogs to run around), staff was exceptional and the cider was great. It’s a dog park so it can smell, dogs will urinate and defecate inside, and it can become noisy. That being said, they have a dog police to keep things in order and are very quick to clean up after the dogs.
My Australian Shepherd got a little overwhelmed by the noise/quantity of people/dogs so it might not be the best place for dogs who get easily scared or overwhelmed, but is perfect for a cold and rainy day.
Hats off for pulling this place off—have yet to see any indoor park for dogs of this quality! I do wish toys were allowed, but completely understand how they can be a huge liability with possessive dogs.
A great space for dogs to play and interact with each other! They had great decorations for their St. Patrick’s Day celebration. There were a ton of options for human food and dog treats. Staff were very friendly and helpful with monitoring the dogs.
