We’re lifelong dog lovers and currently have 3 pups of our own—each one a rescue or a foster fail. Because we understand how important it is for dogs to have a safe, private place to run, we decided to open our property for others to enjoy. The perimeter fencing was originally installed to keep our own dogs secure, and it truly creates a peaceful, protected environment. Since our dogs aren’t outside all the time, it felt natural to share the space with fellow pup parents who want the same sense of freedom and safety for their furry family members. It has been such a joy welcoming guests and hearing how many special memories their dogs have made while visiting our Sniffspot. We’re grateful to share this little haven with you and your pups.
