55Huge property! I live in SW Portland and all of our dog parks are smaller than this property so it was a real treat for my doggy and me. It has some very boggy and muddy patches during rainy season so bring your mud/rain boots if you want to stroll the entire area. There are some grassy drier spots under big trees if you want to bring a camping chair and not walk in the muddy spots. There is a very sweet doggie there that your dog can play with (or not). She and my dog played chase and raced for a chuck-it ball almost the whole hour. There are 2 horses who are VERY accustomed to dogs. I loved petting them. My dog barked at them a bit and they didn't care. The owners will put them in the barn if you don't want them around, but they added a lot to the rural experience for me. Very personable family to greet you your first time. I felt very welcome!Elizabeth W.

55Zoe and Zander had their first adventure here Rick and family’s farm today and they were euphoric ! Plenty of room to run, climb on logged and become familiar with two very dog tolerant mellow horses. Bella the family dog came out for a bit to play and Zoey, their daughter enjoyed playing ( we all did safe distancing) with my pups as well. Rick was a welcoming host and we will be back again! Highly recommend! It is muddy in spots due to the wet weather( might want your rain boots or older tennis shoes but large grassy areas as well. Rick even let us use their hose to hose off the dogs paws before load up. My dogs left there exhausted and happy. Will take pics next time! Angela J.

55Great sniff spot. The area is well maintained and the fencing secure. The trailer had a bin stocked with balls, chuck-it’s and other toys. Cute artwork on the trailer and all around. Luna didn’t want to leave. Ann-Marie B.

55This is a wonderful spot for running Scout. Toys, balls, water, towels and seating are all provided. And both fields are large enough for big dogs. We'll return again and again, I'm sure.Gina S.

55Exactly the private and individual play space my reactive pup needed; he was able to fetch to his heart’s content! Little visibility to adjacent Sniff Spot and easily navigated when needed to avoid seeing any other dogs. We all loved it!Lori H.

55This was our first visit to this spot, and our first use of Sniffspot. Our dog enjoyed the open space and sniffed all of the spots. We encountered the two lovely highland cows as they worked their way through the adjoining fields. They withstood the barrage of barking from our highly reactive dog, and continued on non-plussed. The fence was secure all the way around, but I'll admit to being a bit unnerved at how close the field was to a well travelled road with cars passing at high speeds. It was a good time, and the site was as advertised. We'll explore a few more sites in the coming weeks, but we'll likely find our way back in the future. David F.

55We had a wonderful time with our dogs at the Neffendorf Farm F2! We have one small-ish and one larger dog, and they both had a great time, and the fencing felt very safe and secure for our smaller guy (he’s about 12 or 13 pounds). Everything was clean, and there was seating for the humans – very pleasant! We will definitely visit again!! Jamie G.

55This is our most frequented sniffspot and for good reason! Great space for fetch, recall, and lots of spots for humans to sit and enjoy peaceful environment. I love the thoughtfulness of owner’s providing towels and poop bags around the perimeter. Luka is a big fan of the toy galore filled trailer and big open space. Thank you, we will see you next time!

FAQ about our Hornbrook 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.
