55This was my first time using Sniffspot and it was awesome! I can’t wait to bring my dogs to this location again. They had so much fun running around the big open space. My little old lady likes to act like she can’t hear me these days so her recall is terrible. It was nice to have a big fenced in area where I could let her run free and not worry about her getting into trouble. We even got to get some agility practice in with the equipment that they have set up.
Theresa was also a great host! Thanks again for sharing your space with us. Blenia V.

55Teresa’s spot is delightful! Our husky loves running around in the huge space, and the mix of grass and shady woods is nice even on hot days. There are a bunch of toys stocked and a kiddie pool available to splash around in, and the fencing is very secure. There is even an agility course if you and your dog are so inclined to try it. I appreciate how they always ensure water is accessible and the picnic table and shade canopy are comfortable for human visitors. We will be back! Joseph S.

55Great spot! We have a large fenced yard ourselves but we're looking for a place to practice off leash skills in a new setting. This was the perfect spot! Large fenced in area with a nice mix of woods, grass, and a small field. Would highly recommend this location for you pups!Danielle T.

55This is an awesome spot! Your dogs will love it (and so will you!). It is clean, safe, peaceful, variety of landscaping and spaces to play and run. The hostess makes sure it is a “5 star retreat”!!
I will keep bringing my 2 Goldens back here as often as I can!Gloria N.

55Wonderful spot! It was a trek from inner Portland but well worth the drive! Shade and great run spot for the ball enthusiast. Theresa has a wonderful set up awaiting your arrival. Definitely going back! Anne B.

55Great sniffspot! Lots of space to run and play, and no foxtails! We did see 4 other dogs at the fence line while on the property. The two large dogs on the adjacent property were a bit aggressive in their barking which wasn’t a big deal for our pups (they quickly got the message to steer clear of that corner while the dogs were present), but I do mention it in case that might bother a reactive dog. (The sniffspot owner put up a privacy shield which helps a bit.) All in all, we thought it was a great spot and worth the drive from Portland! Jenny O.

55This place was beautiful and easy to find! We parked inside the gates and felt super secure. You will hear other dogs but the space is so large! Great way to celebrate my baby’s first birthday.Amaya-Giselle V.

55This place is perfect! Our dogs had a blast. We brought along our friends little dog, and I did need to keep an eye on him because he could definitely fit through the mesh wire on the gate entrance, but it wasn't an issue since the space is so big he had plenty of distractions! Also, you can hear dogs barking and see them from certain areas, so be aware if your dogs are reactive. Our gals were way too busy playing to care. I will definitely be coming back to this spot!Amanda C.

55Great spot! Lots of trees and an open area too. The dogs loved to run around. They have a pop up tent, toys, supplies, and fresh water from a hose.
There are visible barking dogs. A couple guardian dogs in the next lot that were not happy with us being near so we stayed away.
The entrance is down the road a little bit, not where the address is marked on the driveway.
I would recommend this spot. Jess A.

55My guys really needed a space to frolic after a trip to a cabin with zero secure space for zoomies and off leash wandering.
This spot was on the way home and did not disappoint.
So many trees and English ivy to explore. Peaceful sounds of a stream or something nearby. Running water for filling a pool or dog bowls.
The gap in the gate at the top of the spot, in the far right corner proved easy for my 15lb chimix to shimmy under...so when you get there w a small dog, i recommended blocking it first thing.
Wish this spot was closer to me, but we'll be back next time we head up to Mt. Hood.Dr. B.

55We had a wonderful time. Our boy Ganesh is a field cocker who loves to run and smell. He spent the hour roaming through the ferns and smelling everything. We are also working on getting him to come and obey off-leash so we can do some training. We will be back. It was very clean and had water and toys. We would like to get started working with Ganesh on agility.Sharon P.

55This was my first Sniffspot and it was awesome! It is fully fenced and my pup enjoyed running around and sniffing through the forest and patrolling the fence. He was able to say hi to some dogs through the fence, so may not work if you have a reactive dog, but this was perfect for us to have a large space to practice recall with distractions. We will definitely be back!Cassie A.

FAQ about our Boring small dog parks
Are small dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
