55Easy instructions to follow for first time visitors. Fresh water for the pups was great for a warm afternoon but we also found lots of lovely cooler shaded areas to run and play!Samantha G.

55This place is awesome!! Once you pass the cattle fence with the code, the whole property is fenced so the dogs can just jump out of the car; no leashed transition. There was a little pool we filled up with water by a convenient hose and an obvious trash can for waste. It was peaceful and fun! The dogs loved it!Samantha S.

55More than five stars. What a TREASURE! Fence is secure and perfect around the entire property (my whippets checked.) Lovely host provides thorough, easy to follow directions. Friendly horses across a fence. The property is enormous and has everything. There’s tall grass and hills, wildflowers, woodpiles for smelling, birds, fabulous views, pine forest, sunny and shady spots. Bring your dogs here. Borrow a dog so you can come here. A short drive from Colorado Springs but entirely worth the drive to come down from Denver for the morning. We brought camp chairs and a picnic blanket. Just perfectDawn R.

55Beautiful large space. We had a great time. Horses and dogs nearby provided great training opportunities. Lots of varying sensory stimulation for my dogs too, trees, pine cones, etc. Coral D.

55We had a great time!! It was nice how some areas were mowed down & others were grown out. Perfect to walk, play fetch, or sniff & explore. One of my dogs got a bit muddy in the little water hole (after I accidentally threw her favorite ball in there lol) so it was SO thoughtful & helpful that a water hose was available to rinse the mud off of her! Definitely hope to come back 🐾Kathryn B.

55Very cool concept in my opinion. Just found out from a client that these places exist 🤗
Worked great for what I needed. Continuing to work on reliable recall with my American bulldog, new place, new smells, he did great and was happy.
The host had toys, chairs and filled water bottles with a water bowl.
I had to reach out via message to the host to double check I was at the correct location and they were very polite. Afterwards I noticed the water bowl, dog toys and a trash can marked Sniffspot😁
I would definitely come back again to bring Polo my AB, but I wouldn't bring my littles as it is literally right next to the highway and the fence "as stated" is not fully fenced.
Thx a million!Jo C.

FAQ about our Colorado Springs dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends 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. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
