55My dogs had an absolutely wonderful time sniffing and exploring today!
Lovely property with plenty of shade, much thanks to the wonderful shade shelter and doggy pool. The trees provided lots of shade and kept the dogs cool as they explored and sniffed.
Our lab attempted the agility course while our Great Pyrenees mix secured the perimeter of the fence.
Lovely host, great communication. Beautiful property, 100% recommend!Sarah B.

55Clean, shady, beautiful, peaceful, safe, and with thoughtful touches like wading pool and toys, it was perfect. My two dogs had a lovely time— we will definitely return! Sabina P.

55We had a terrific first visit here today. The trees provided lots of shade, which is great for hot summer days, and the dogs loved exploring the forested area. There’s a nice sizable flat area near the gate that was perfect for playing ball with a chuck-it too. Theresa’s directions were excellent, and there were clear signs to get us to the right place. We’ll definitely return!Michelle J.

55Really nice spot! To me, a perfect sniffspot has lots of variety. Somewhere to play ball, room to walk around, shade, sunny spots, etc. This yard meets all that and more. There's a kiddie pool, agility equipment, and a covered picnic table with a box of supplies and toys. Pay attention to the instructions to access the spot because the GPS can tell you that you've arrived too soon. Frances U.

55This spot is beautiful! Our dog loved running through the field and sniffing through the forested area. If your dog is super reactive or doesn’t have great recall they will struggle with the dogs on the other side of the fence (mentioned in the description). Our dog got nose to nose through the fence with the other dog before we were able to call her off. But the owner called their dog inside shortly after and we were able to just stay away from that part of the area. There is so much else to do! The bottom of the Sniffspot near the entrance is quiet and peaceful, we had a great time. Bailey B.

55Best Sniffspot! Plenty of open space to run in one half, and trees to explore in the other. Plus a little pool, water, and toys. Very very clean! We will be back for sure!Elizabeth S.

55Sooooooooo relaxing, like a little plot of forest and a shady glen just for you and your pups! We walked, we wrestled, we dug, we chased and we sniffed. Oh my how we sniffed! I’d like to tell you not to go to this spot so that we can keep it to ourselves, but ain’t just can’t! It’s as close to perfect on a hot summer day as a sniff spot can get without ocean! Get some!Monica H.

55Awesome sniffspot! Definitely one of the best ones I’ve been to, the fact that it’s pretty big but mostly shaded is the best. most sniff spots on the bigger side are just soo sunny but this one’s not and that was good on a hot day. It was 90° and my dog was wearing an ice vest and he was still able to play fetch for a little bit.K B.

55Perfect spot for hot doggies! Lots of shade, dog pool, and a close by hose make it easy to get your pup clean before you leave. There is plenty of room, and it's a gorgeous property. The owner is kind and generous! You're missing out if you skip on this one.Catherine E.

55We will be back soon!! It is an awesome space for my 2 Retrievers to run, play, sniff till they were worn out!! The variety in the space is nice, ie trees, no trees, grass, dirt, foliage, shade, sunny spots. Very important to me…it is a clean environment for my boys to enjoy. They enjoyed seeing the dogs in the adjoining spaces. I enjoyed sitting at the picnic table and watching them play. I highly recommend this spot!!Gloria N.

55Wonderful sniffspot! Directions were clear and I appreciate the signage making the spot easy to find. Also, being able to pull your car in and shut the gate is a nice bonus! The yard is maintained beautifully & the covered seating was clean along with everything you could need. The host was so kind and made sure we enjoyed our stay. This sniffspot was anything but Boring :) & we appreciate you sharing your yard with us! Kristin K.

55The Barking Lot was the BEST place to practice recall. It was a wonderful balance of shade trees and a place to romp in a grassy field.
Thank you!! It was just perfect!Elizabeth D.

55Theresa is an amazing host! Great communication and so kind! This is Maci’s happy place, she loves to do the perimeter check and sniff to her hearts content.
Very clean and nice amenities, picnic table under shade shelter, water, hand sanitizer. The property has both shade and sun. Beautiful forest like area with trees, a grassy area with sun and doggy pool and field like area with agility course. Nicely marked signs making it easy to find and a parking spot in front of gate. 100% recommend! Sarah B.

55It was a bit hard to find because Google Maps directed us to the wrong location (thanks to your sweet neighbor for helping us!) but it was magic as soon as we saw the "Sniffspot" signs and got there. Our dogs had a wonderful time running around, playing fetch, and sniffing all the things. Thank you!Jamie D.
