55Beautiful trails in the woods! My Pup loved it!
55We had a fantastic experience at Patricia’s Sniffspot! The area was clean, well-marked, with plenty of room for running and sniffing. Patricia provided clear instructions on where to enter and marked the paths, making it easy to navigate the area. We’ll definitely be back to enjoy this wonderful spot.
55The girls had so much fun today, swimming and exploring!
55The trails are lovely! I will likely be back! I was a bit uncertain about the entrance, as there is no street number marker visible from the road, but google maps took me to a short driveway by the red barn in some of these photos, so I parked there. I think the next spot to pull in going west on the road would also work. It's also not clear where the boundary is on the east side, so I opted not to continue on the trail that seemed to lead into someones mowed yard, especially because there was a dog barking periodically in that direction.
55Tons of room where a dog can be a dog.
55Wow!! Great spot!! My dogs loved exploring the trails! Definitely enough to explore to fill up an hour! We’ll definitely be back!! Thank you!!
55This was our third visit and it’s always so nice here! The leaves are just starting to change so it’s really pretty for us humans, and the girls had an absolute blast in the pond.
55Wonderful hike today at Patricia and Kevin's spot! With the leaves beginning to change, the woods were beautiful. Great communication with hosts. Beautiful, wide, well marked, mostly level trails through woods and past fields. If you are concerned about recall you could comfortably walk your dog on-leash here without getting tangled up. Indy found plenty of little ponds to play in (we will visit the big pond next time!) and the cave formation was really interesting. If you have a water-loving "mud monster" like me, just make sure you brings some towels. We will be back soon!
55This spot was AMAZING. Easy to find with the directions and there were wide, well-maintained (and shaded) trails that were super easy to follow. We followed the white trail markers which led us in a loop back towards the pond. It was so quiet and peaceful, especially in the woods. The dogs had a blast, so many different smells to investigate and the pond is beautiful! We’ll definitely be back to explore more!
55This was an amazing treat for my dog! Trails were very easy to follow & we did a few different routes. Finding it was easy & parking was great. Patricia the host made it very easy and was beyond helpful. Loved it! Can’t wait to go back!

I have three fur babies. One is a retired police dog, the other is a goofy lovable chocolate lab, and my newest is a therapy dog in a school. My dogs are super spoiled, they get to roam acres and acres of land on a regular basis. I’m so happy to be able to share this with you.

The agility yard is a great way to give your pet physical and mental enrichment while strengthening the bond between you. Safety is paramount, so you’ll find our Agility Yard enclosed by a four-foot fence. However, if your dog happens to be an enthusiastic jumper, we recommend visiting the Athens Bunker Hill Dog Park, offering an open and adequately fenced space to accommodate their energy. While enjoying the Agility Yard, please note that there’s a road nearby. For your pet’s safety and the safety of others, keep your pet leashed when entering and exiting the yard. The road sees regular foot traffic, with people walking, dog-walking, and cycling. Passersby may pause to admire your training efforts. Respect for the environment is crucial—remember to CLEAN UP after your pet. Doggie bags are conveniently available on the fence, and you can dispose of waste in our designated garbage receptacle. If your pet happens to dig, please fill in any holes they create. To ensure everyone’s safety, please refrain from using any of the equipment; it’s exclusively for animals. We also emphasize the importance of gentle training methods—excessive force will not be tolerated. Most pets are eager learners, so patience is key. If you’re interested in learning effective training techniques, feel free to reach out for a quick lesson based on my experience with my own dogs. Above all, make training a positive and enjoyable experience for both you and your pet. Visiting our agility yard is a direct contribution to our nonprofit One Dog One World's mission. We sincerely appreciate your support. onedogoneworld.org
