Amazing space, wonderfully kept, easy in and out... sorry for the chaos

Torie C.

March 2025

We found our new favorite spot! This place is truly a gem and I selfishly want to keep it a secret! The hosts are incredibly kind and accommodating and the space itself is amazing — huge space with plenty of room to run! So many nice little touches that went into it. There’s a stick bin, hay bales, branches, and other enrichment items throughout. The amenities and catch pen were wonderful as well. We will definitely be back! :)

My dogs had an absolute blast. Love that is so close to where I live. Definitely will be back!

Vanessa S.

This is an awesome property with lots of room for your pup to run and explore. We love this sniffspot!

Kerri L.

August 2023

Great spot! My dog and I had a blast walking around the property. There are all kinds of toys provided, but he loved the wide selection of sticks. Will definitely return in the future.

Rebecca B.

August 2023

Loved loved loved this location. No dogs or people in sight. The goats were so cute! Lots of places to be able to sit and watch your dogs from. The host has everything you need right there. Will be back!

Bailey M.

August 2023

This is SUCH a cool spot!! I found it well browsing through the app and it did not disappoint, We live about a hour away but it was worth the drive! Daniel went above and beyond when I mentioned it was one of my pups birthday and put out a special birthday sign for us☺️. Many toys for the dogs and activities are provided for both dogs and their owners. The goats are pretty cool they hung around the whole time we were there. Besides the goats stomping around it’s a very quiet area. It’s an easy spot to find with signs provided everywhere to confirm you’re going the right way. This is the kind of spot you could book for many hours or even a whole day, pack a family picnic because you won’t want to leave. I definitely will be next time I come!!

Meghan H.

This was a great spot with everything a dog or human could need. Variety of seating options, tons of interesting sniffing opportunities for dogs, toys, treats, and adorable goats!

Lisa C.

August 2023

This was our first Sniffspot experience and it was a 10+++! We needed a place for the dogs to run after a long trip from Colorado and the Duggan Ranch did not disappoint. Daniel obviously understands having dogs and what they like/need. We were treated to cold water for the humans, treats for the dogs, toys and balls (cleaned!) and a very clean kiddie pool for after running cool-down. There were mowed paths, multiple places to sit, even bug spray for both humans and dogs was provided. We met and fed the goats. Fencing was secure and visible. It was just a fabulous experience. I just wish I lived closer!

Absolutely loved this location! Our dogs loved the goats and ran a ton. So much space and the water spaces were perfect for them to cool off. Beautiful and quiet

Abbie H.

September 2023

So fun! The goats were so friendly and loved the food that was provided. The host also had bug spray, sunscreen, tick spray & even water for the humans. For the dogs, they had a splash pad, pool & sprinkler- if your dog loves water, this is the perfect place for you!!! There was also hammocks, a swing & many sitting areas. I can’t say enough great stuff about this place! it was so fun and my dogs absolutely loved it.

Terri A.

I first heard of Sniffspot when watching channel 9 news. Your place was show cased and I couldn't believe what a fantastic concept! I am now a member and today my brother and I made it to your ranch! The scenery was beautiful, the swing was fun all the smells and of course the adorable goats. I brought banana and carrots. So much fun We will definitely be back!!

Elise C.

September 2023

AMAZING!! Our border collie mix was in heaven - and the goats didn’t seem to mind one bit. They are so sweet! There’s everything you could possibly want or need, all provided, well-labeled, and beautifully set out. Doggie pool? Check! Goat treats? Check! Tents for kiddos to play in? Check! This is such a beautiful place for dogs, kids, and they grown ups. We will definitely be booking often and bringing friends! Thank you for creating this sanctuary for dogs and their people. 💗

Naz G.

We had such a great time. Dogs loved the trails and the goats! There is everything you can need, water, poop bags, clean balls, towels, sprinkler, splash pad, etc. we can’t wait to come back!!!!!

Thank you for opening your home to us! Archer and Remy had a blast. This was our first Sniffspot, and you set the bar pretty high.

Sima B.

September 2023

Great site. Plenty of room to run. The hosts provide a multitude of toys, water features, and even tick spray for running through the woods! Our boys enjoyed the goats—they were friendly and came/went throughout the course of our visit. I loved that there were treats to coax the goats out/encourage interaction.

Doan R.

First time using sniff spot and I loved it!! Duggan Ranch was such a fun experience for both myself and Scout. I loved the goats, extra supplies (water for humans, balls, treats, bug spray, towels) seating, and all the space to run. Will definitely come back again :)

FAQ About Alden Dog Parks
