55Maggie and Minnie had a blast at Pawsitive Connection’s Sniffspot! Both girls were so happy and smiling the moment we stepped inside and didn’t want to leave! 10/10 experience with fun agility equipment, toys, and Maggie’s favorite a POOL! Extremely clean, well-organized, and truly in a league of its own. Well done Stephanie and Warren! Highly recommend!!! 🩷💙🐾 Azalyn C.

55This place is amazing. It has everything and then some. I mean, even at the entrance you know you're in a good place. Very clear signs to get you to the right place. There's toys, two pools, agility course, and space, lots and lots of space. It's a great place not just for the dogs to enjoy, but humans as well. You can clearly tell, the hosts care. Ezequiel R.

55Your dog(s) will love it here! There is so much space to play and sniff. The thoughtfulness! No matter what your dog likes (run, fetch, wrestle, agility equipment, swim, play with toys, etc.) they’ll find something they love to do. There are shaded resting spots for you and even a cute photo op with every visit. We’ll be back.Tyree I.

55Best grass and games around! Knox's giant smile rolling in the grass was one of my favorite moments. Absolutely LOVE the collieball... what a special treat. We got so many laps in around the field and ran the most agility course rounds yet. Most fun day ever in this puppy paradise ♡♡♡Nichole T.

55This was our first time using Sniff Spot and Pawsitive Connection sniffspot did not disappoint. My pups enjoyed running freely and playing in the pool…we will definitely be back! Miranda A.

55This spot has everything we could ever need! Toys, places in the shade to sit, pools, games, and so much space! It was safe, clean, and so well-organized. We had a couple small dogs and a few bigger dogs for one of our dog’s birthdays. He turned 1 and had such a blast! All the dogs enjoyed something different. Our big dog loved the big red ball while the others enjoyed the pools or just running around and smelling everything. Our well trained dog loved the obstacles too! Thank you for creating such an amazing place for all our family dogs!! Mersi S.

55First time ever our fur babies got to run off leash on a wide open space. The loved it! They were too busy going around and checking everything out to even want to play with the toys. We will definitely be back!Denise P.

55Our 3rd visit and I’m so grateful to have this space for my “apartment” dog. I can sit and read while she gets to safely explore and play OFF LEASH. In a fun environment we can practice retrieving, come, check-in, etc. Julia C.

55It’s very obvious that the hosts put a lot of thought into the specifics needed to set this SniffSpot apart from the rest. The location was the first amazing feature in my book. I was so happy to learn a place opened in Mead since it would save me the 40 minute car ride one way to the locations I’d visited in the past.
Secondly, aside from the toys commonly found at SniffSpots (ball launchers, frisbees) they included non traditional ones as well including a GIANT red ball that, although my dogs could care less about it, I’m sure others would love. The rally course was a great addition as well.
The portable misting fan, as well as the pressure activated cooling mat (located in the doggie first aid kit) to place on the dog cot, really sealed the deal for me though, as my chocolate lab rarely knows when to stop and pushed herself a bit too hard. This will be the only spot I visit from now on and I can happily say they’ve gotten a customer for life. ❤️Tracy B.

55What a great place to take the dogs! There is so much to do, sniff and see. It will take more than one visit to enjoy everything there. Plenty of shade, human chairs, water stations and garbage cans. Toys, pools, agility equipment, treats and a very fun kissing booth.
We had a very small dog who was on her first sniffspot adventure and to say that she enjoyed the experience is an understatement. Our other dog has been to several sniffspots but this one is the best yet.Juli M.

55This is a fantastic place for your dog (and you) to get out and run, jump and sniff as much as they want! There is agility equipment, pools, toys, and chairs, tables and shade umbrellas for the humans too! We do not take our guy to the local dog parks because of other overly aggressive dogs (Harley is a lover not a fighter), and the potential for diseases. This is MUCH better than a dog park, sooooo much more than a dog park! Every detail has been thought out for you to enjoy a great time with your dog!Robin T.

55My co-worker recommended this place and I'm so glad we went! It was during the week in August where temperatures were consistently in the 100s. So we went at 7:30 am. Lots of room for our girls to run around, sniff and play. After and hour they were tuckered out. I have already told my family members who have dogs about this place. It was clean, easy to find, lots to do and several places for us two-legged beings to chill in the shade!Aimee H.

FAQ about our Athol dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, with Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs 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. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
