Smithhaven is the best! 10 acres to walk about and a very clean pond for swimming (with a dock). It was easy to locate. There is a shaded area with chairs. Only 3 sides are fenced but the pond is behind the house and is set back from the road which is not heavily traveled at all. I knew Ollie would not stray far from the pond so I didn’t worry about it. We will be regular visitors to Smithhaven!

Really nice large, quiet property to go run and swim. The pond is large and clean. My dog had a great hour playing here! It is not fully fenced and it would be possible for a small dog (or very determined medium/larger dog) to get through some of the wooden fenced areas in the back, so if you’re worried about recall or your dog wandering too far consider using a long line. The pond and grassy areas are fairly private though and set back from the road so off leash is a possibility if you’re more confident in your dog’s recall. We’ll definitely be back for more playtime a day swimming!

My dog had a great time here! Very clean and plenty of room to run. There was a cat that hung out by the pavilion—there were no issues, but worth noting! Thank you!

Today was our 3rd visit to Smithhaven. It is a great place to take your dog out for a run or for swimming. The pond is very clean and there is a dock if your dog likes to dock dive. There is also a covered deck with chairs if you want to step out of the sun.

Had an amazing visit with our swimmer! Open-run space in immaculate condition, soft green grass, pristine swimming water, covered seating area & plenty of butterflies! A quiet, safe place for pets provided by owners who care.

My pup loved being able to run around the property and swim in the pond. Property is as advertised - there isn't a fence at the entrance, so keep that in mind if your dog is an escape artist. But with all the grass and pond, they probably won't want to leave! We'll be back.

If your dog loves chasing toys and swimming, this is the place for you! My border collie, Dash, and I really enjoyed exploring the property. There's so much room to run! The yard is clean and there is a small shelter with picnic tables where we were able to put our things and get some shade. If your dog likes chasing geese, you might want to be a little careful around the water, as there were some geese swimming around. Fortunately for us, it wasn't an issue, and the geese avoided us and swam away when Dash jumped in. Overall, this is the best Sniffspot we've tried so far. It's quiet, clean, and spacious.

We had an amazing time and our dogs are so happy and tired! We’ll be back soon and often!

Our dogs loved the pond! Lots of big open spaces for Zoomies too :) We did see a cat by the house as entered the area which would have been quite a scene of our dogs would have spotted it! Thankfully they ran straight to the field! Beautiful space and loved that it was mostly fenced in.

Amanda K.

No dogs or people seen from this spot. Great communication from host. My dog loved exploring the land, sticking her nose into every little nook and cranny. I once went here before and left a two star review but would like to take it back and don’t know how. Please disregard! I would recommend messaging this host (and any other host) prior to booking to make sure that they are aware that you’ve booked, especially if you reserve on short notice. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property.

Very lovely spot! We just hung out in the fenced area and it was a good spot for our Pomeranian to get some off leash time! It was clean and well fenced.

FAQ About Columbia 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.

How can I find dog fields in Columbia?

There are 19 dog fields in the Columbia area. The most popular dog field is County Park. You can browse all of our dog fields here.

How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?

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.

How much do Sniffspot fields cost?

Dog fields in the Columbia area range from $4.0 and $. The least expensive dog field is Carole's Private Dog Park In Montgomery City. The most expensive dog field is Columbia Cosmopolitan Recreation Area (Cosmo Park). Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
