Petz Sports: Dog Playground received mixed reviews upon release. GameZone described the game as a "solid entry" to the Petz franchise, highlighting the variety of activities and "personality" of the dogs, although finding the racing gameplay "simplistic" and writing that it "could be fleshed out more".[2] Lucas Thomas of IGN similarly praised the "expressive and fun" animations of the dogs, but found the minigame design "tiring and repetitive" and the game's loading times "unattractive".[3]
