55This was our first experience with Sniffspot and it was a good one! The property is beautiful, it’s fully fenced with a nice trail, plenty of room to run and spots to explore. Of course our beagle was most interested in the cat under the back deck, but what are you gonna do😅. Wonderful place, welcoming owners, highly recommend. Kelly O.

55Our dog was neutered 2 weeks ago and I was looking for a place to take him to get some pent up energy out after being cooped up for a while. He LOVED it. The chickens had his attention for a solid 20 min but once we got over that excitement he had a blast running the trails and exploring everywhere. What a beautiful property! Thank you for letting us enjoy it! Jessica W.

55The property was beautiful and the hosts were very kind and helpful! The property does have trails and a lot of shade (great for hot days). If your dog gets excited over animals keep a close eye, the chickens and goats (very sweet, we made friends with them) are behind a fence but the kitties are out and about.
The fencing is very secure, I wouldn't worry about any escape artists there either. Cana C.

55Everything you could want in a sniff spot. The property is extremely well maintained and completely fenced in. Our dogs loved all the smells, especially around the chickens and goats as they had never seen either. Great mental stimulation day that knocked our pups out about 5 minutes after leaving. Definitely would recommend. Travis S.

55We had a blast. It was a great place with trails. The goats and chickens were a big hit. Owners were friendly and helpful.
A note to first timers, Google Maps takes you to the neighbor’s driveway so look for the address numbers on the mailboxes across the road. I didn’t think to look on the other side.
We will be back soon!Valerie H.

55The host sent directions on how to access the property that were very clear. There’s an area for sitting and a short trail through their property. Beautiful property and the goats/chickens seemed comfortable with my medium sized dog. Would go again!Eleanor W.

FAQ about our Galena 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.
How can I find dog fields in Galena?
There are 36 dog fields in the Galena area. The most popular dog field is Mama's Homestead. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
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 Galena area range from $10.0 and $10.0. The least expensive dog field is Big yard, lots of smells. The most expensive dog field is Big yard, lots of smells. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
