55Had a good time- my dog was pretty reactive with the pig there but we used that time to try and work on that-
I would appreciate a Sniffspot sign so I know exactly where to go-

55Great spot in many ways! Beautiful, lush forest setting. Very clearly marked with helpful signage. Super clean. Nice view and even a creek. The trails are a little on the steep side (not a negative, just something to be aware of), so make sure you're up for a little bit of elevation loss/gain. My pup and I had a fantastic time!Devin B.

55We loved it! Easily marked and clean trails. We all got a little workout going back up hill on one of the trails 😆 our boy had so much fun and napped long and hard when we got home. Beautiful little hike, thank you. Kayley W.

55Such a great trail system for my dog reactive boy. He was able to relax and get plenty of sniffs in and even cool down in the creek. Pack bug spray though!Jamie O.

55Magical fairyland. This spot is super nice. Extremely organized, with clear signage, parking, instructions, etc. The dogs absolutely loved exploring the trails and splashing in the water. The humans thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and watching the dogs have fun.
They even have eggs and plant starts available for purchase. We bought some eggs, and after trying them, we never want to go back to grocery store eggs.
If you're planning a trip here, just be aware that the trails are on a hillside, so wear shoes appropriate for walking up and down some relatively steep inclines.
We want to send our heartfelt thanks to our hosts for sharing their beautiful spot with others through SniffSpot. We're so grateful we got to visit!Jennifer M.

55This just became our top spot for a small hike. My German shepherd had such a blast going up and down the trails. The trails are short but for how steep they are it’s perfect. If you have a reactive pup this is definitely the spot for a hike and for your pup to enjoy some nature time. 11/10. Gisell A.

55Beautiful wooded area with cool shade for comfortable hiking on a warm afternoon. The trails definitely gave us and our pups a work out - steep, but fairly well maintained and clearly marked. Next time we'll plan better and have water/snacks with us and take a rest break at one of the many benches.Susan A.

55Great quiet spot that feels like you’re hiking on a maintained trail system. Dry today, but if it was during rainy season I could see it being slippery! Our dogs absolutely loved it and we loved the lookout point. They take great care to make this a top Sniffspot. Renae M.

FAQ about our Timber 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.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Timber area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is Private Fenced Play Yard. The most expensive dog field is Private Fenced Play Yard. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
