55Lovely green space for fetch. Not fenced in but plenty far away from the road/other properties that it wasn’t an issue for us. The dogs enjoyed a romp around the creek and looking at chickens. Loved that there was water for the dogs and a hose to spray them off before we left. We’d love to visit again!Megan P.

55Awesome experience! My three large dogs enjoyed indoor and outdoor areas, with plenty of room to run and play! Went home tired. Host was wonderful, Lorri showed us around and explained everything. I was even able to rinse off the dogs! Looking forward to future visits! Lisa V.

55Absolutely fantastic. Host was present to show me around which eased my anxiety. Had both indoor and outdoor option. Tried both because my one dog wouldn’t stop eating grass haha. While my dogs werent as excitable as i had expected them to be it was a beautiful change of pace. Host was so gracious even when my dogs barked at her which is rare since mine are pittie-type. I also got all the way there and realized i left my poopy bags at home. I was mortified but she was so nice about it. Can’t wait to go back and maybe bring a friend! Kim P.

55My three large dogs love the fenced in, outside 0.25-acre area. My older lab likes to go for a walk around inside perimeter and rest in the shade under the pine trees. And the space is large enough for my two German shepherds to play with the chuckit! Great exercise and all went home tried!Lisa V.

55Moses and I had a blast running around and playing! We had free roam of the area with zero distractions. This was a great opportunity to work on some training in a new environment. I feel awful that we couldn’t get the full tour and our host Lorri didn’t get to meet Moses because he is so reactive to people. But if they’ll have us back I’d love to take him again. Thanks so much for allowing us to visit your property!Chrissy A.

55Lucy had a wonderful time! Lorri, was a gracious host, and we enjoyed ourselves so much! Both the I door and out door play areas were beautiful. I wish it weren’t so hot, Lucy was just hot and tired and wanted to leave early, which had nothing to do with the spot, it’s just Lucy. For some reason she does that, she gets hot, goes to the gate and wants to go home. Once fall hits, she will be a ball of energy the whole time! I drove an hour to get there, taking the scenic route, and I would definitely do it again.holly K.

55What a perfect spot to wear out your dogs! It didn't even take a full hour before ours were completely exhausted. The water and available restroom in the barn were a nice amenity to have as well. Thank you for having us!Nikki T.

55Lori’s place was perfect for my dog Chico! He had a large open space to run, chase his balls, practice his recall, and he got to see a horse for the first time! Ironically he didn’t even notice the horses until we were packing up to leave! We showed up a little early and Lori was very accommodating! I can’t wait to bring Chico back in the fall/winter to use the indoor facility too!Amy T.

55Brought my reactive 1 y/o GSD here to burn some energy on a rainy day. We spent an hour in the indoor arena and my dog loved it! Was completely enclosed which gave me piece of mind and was even bigger than it looks in the picture so she had plenty of room to run and play fetch. It is a sandy type flooring so be prepared that you will get some sand on you but I love that my dog had a chance to get dirty and explore since she misses those opportunities as a reactive dog. We will definitely be back! Alannah W.

55We LOVED this experience! We spent some time exploring the horses, barn, and outdoor areas. The host is pleasant, accommodating, and mindful of your pup’s needs. The horses are beautiful and very well taken care of. Top notch horse barn (and I’ve seen a lot in my days) and Sniffspot. Highly recommend! Jessica S.

FAQ about our Johnstown 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.
