55This is definitely a place for dogs to have some serious sniffs! It has everything you could hope for - plenty of seating and shade, fresh water for dogs and people, bug spray, sunscreen. My boys loved running up the trail and exploring the wooded area. The host, Cindy, is amazing. She gives clear instructions and made the visit very pleasant. This is definitely a spot worth exploring! Emma F.

55Perfect place for my pups to run around and sniff! Kept my puggle on a long leash because he’s an escape artist and goes deaf once he’s hunting down a smell but my lab loved running around the entire property. The fencing was perfect to keep her contained. We walked a loop around the property then took a break while the pups got a good drink of water that Cindy had out for us. After a short break we took another loop around the property. It was perfect! Make sure to wear some good hiking or athletic shoes.
The host was so accommodating and let us schedule last minute. She was super helpful when I had trouble locating the property. GPS took me one house too far so just pay attention to the address number. This property is clearly marked, I just wasn’t paying attention! Tesha B.

55This sniff spot was an incredible experience for both me and my dog! The space was vast, well-maintained, and offered plenty of room for my dog to run, play, and explore off-leash. Lots of shaded areas and open fields. The privacy was excellent, and I felt completely safe letting my dog roam freely. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we can't wait to return!Jordan P.

55This sniff spot was so well made and my dogs had a great time! We were able to walk around the property twice (up and down the hill) in the hour slot and there was lots of sniffing around to do for the pups. There is a trail paved out with rocks, but you can also create your own path through clearings in the trees. I let my dogs lead me through this sniff spot and we took different paths up and down each time!
We had clean water left out for us, as well as bug spray, which I didn’t use but should have! We went in the evening, so bugs were unavoidable. I would recommend longer pants and closed toe shoes just because of patches of longer grass and the bugs! We didn’t run into any unwanted animals (dogs or otherwise). This was truly such quaint and well made spot. We drove 2 hours away for this, and it will absolutely be worth it to do it again! Rohini R.

55This place is perfect. So much fun for my girl Niyah… she loved walking and rolling in the tall grass, running back and forth in the muddy stream, sniffing everywhere… it was great to see her so happy. The host left water for both dogs and humans, among other things… and there are comfy chairs in the gazebo as well. Great place to let your pup rest and get ready for more fun. I highly recommend this place and will be back for sure!Teresa V.

55Great place to let your dogs explore freely. Fence is well constructed. If you have small dogs (less than 15lbs) keep an eye as they could potentially slip through the squares.
Host was awesome. Left us water, for both humans and dogs! Hammocks were great to relax in. Views we're amazing. Soham D.

There was great communication with the host and the spot is clearly marked and easy to find. I hope to take the boys out there on a regular basis.Marc S.

Stunning views from the top of the hill, great amenities, trails to hike… just fantastic! My dogs had a blast and were so tuckered out by the end- hard to do with my smaller border collie mix!

FAQ about our Dripping 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.
