Sniffspot's private dog parks are the best way to exercise your dog. We have the best variety and the best priced dog parks anywhere!
Come and play in Sammy’s Playground. There’s lots to do. With the entire 0.5-acre backyard fully enclosed by a new chain-link fence (Fall 2022), the pups are free to roam and run to their hearts delight. And, wow… it sure is fun to watch them go!! Zoom-Zoom (important notices on pricing and opening the gate are at close of this section). The areas along the edges of the yard are wooded and make for fun pathways for explorations. The central area of the yard has a slight hill and is mostly open. This makes for plenty of romping and heavy-duty running- including long throws of a ball or a frisbee. Check out all of the photos and read the accompanying descriptions to get a better idea of how Sammy’s Playground will appeal to you and your furry friends!! And don’t worry about the yard (too much). There’s divots and mounds all around, no manicured lawns when dogs are at play. Go for it guys… Enjoy!! As promised, mid-May ‘24, the pool💦 was opened. While it’s likely be too chilly for humans (and even some pups), many dogs will find great pleasure in retrieving their ball or simply going for a dip in the pool. For 💦 pool use, select the corresponding “Extra” for your visit. By June, the furniture, gazebo, hammock, kiddie pool and a whole bunch more will be out for ALL to enjoy as we welcome summertime!! Yea. It’s our hope that the relationships between us and our guests remain great and we haven’t found the need to raise our hourly rate. Yea again! ——- NOTE: to open the gate, simply reach over the top to find the key. Twist/turn the key until it stops. Then, lift the knob on top of the gate and push the gate open… you’re in! The gate automatically closes behind you. Please confirm that it has engaged into the closed position and then turn the key to lock yourself in. DO NOT REMOVE THE KEY. The photos section includes views of the gate, key and lock. NOTE: As an “Extra” listed benefit, you may park your vehicle in an area away from the gate and take advantage of a leisurely stroll down the very-well-kept sidewalks of Park Street and adjoining neighborhoods. This might be a good way to burn off that last little bit of doggy energy or for some leash training while you’re here. This is time AFTER your booked time of using Sammy’s Playground (not a part of it). This is essentially a parking fee. We just don’t want you to run off without taking advantage of all the resources available to you for your dog(s).
UNDER RENOVATIONS: Please excuse our appearance as we upgrade the enrichment course for the K9s we serve here. We hope to complete the renovations with new enrichment programs and fun coursework later this summer. Please check with your accountant as we are a Non-Profit Registered, and the money we make from your visits 100% goes to healing these amazing K9s. It could possibly be a tax deduction at the end of the year. Thank you for being so supportive.
Huge fenced in yard with private access to hiking trails in Ames Nowell abutting Cleveland pond. Spend time off leash in our yard before heading into the park. We do have a detention pond that will need to be off limits for your dog(s) but if needed, we have sprinkler / hose if they accidentally go into it. We kindly ask that you pick up after your dog.
Lots of open yard, trails and of places to swim, run and play
My spot is usually always kept clean and neat besides the digging holes from my 2 dogs. Have lunch or dinner while you watch your dog playing and running at the dining table outdoors. Swimming pool available during season, feel free to cool off as well as your pup. Plenty of chairs to sit and relax and a sand box for the dogs. My dogs love sitting and digging in it. Water hose is always on so feel free to give your dog fresh water. Doggie bags are available to dispose of your dogs waste as well as a barrel. Enjoy, relax or run around with your furry friend. Outhouse is available as well.
50 acre closed gravel pit with roads and woods. The former air-soft club left partial combat structures remain here and there. First time check in at the shed/office. NRA certified can bring firearms (let us know in advance) Bonfires ok (let us know in advance) Camping by the river is allowed (let us know in advance)
A fabulous space to run and play. Mostly separated from the road with a stone wall quiet and peaceful. Hang in the hammock or use one of the beach chairs. Free to set up where you would like. Lots of open space and shade trees.
Bigger than your average yard
Come sniff around right next to private Barkers Pond. Sit on the dock and enjoy the view. Lots of wild life to enjoy (ducks, heron, beavers late in the day). Please park all the way to the left in the driveway (closest to trash barrels). Please be sure to pick up after your dog while here, thank you!
Come on down the long driveway to find 2 kinds of play. A basjet ful of various toys available to Guests may help you decide! Guests may opt for good clean ball playing and strolls around the short grassy knoll....Second option is to trek down into the wooded pasture to find trees,trails,wetlands,and hills. In Spring/ Summer,fresh water for cleaning up,along with fresh drinks and soft towels,kiddie pool and pup snacks!
80 acre colonial farm with a pond, streams,multiple fields, trails. Great exercise not only for Fido but for his/her humans as well.
Beautiful estate home across from the beach and directly on the Eel river. Huge back yard for running and play.
Apollo and Mila welcome everyone and their hoomans to come gallivanting through our giant play area. We generally were never allowed off leash, probably because we’ve taken our fair share of lengthy, alone-time strolls🫣, but our Hooman has placed the utmost confidence in me, Apollo, to ensure no one takes advantage of their surroundings. I learned a few things with him when we were active duty military, I got to jump out of helicopters and chase after the bad guys for fun! I was also taught how to ease the nerves of my aggressive friends and show them that chill is cool…Dont be afraid to come play with us, we even have a pool!!!
A homestead in the making!
This spot is more than dog friendly! (420 also) 😉 My large female dog is very calm & friendly if you want to arrange for a social visit. This is a beautiful large open space to run & play or just relax & smell all of what nature has to offer. Fire pit can be accessed with notice & permission of owner. Indoor restroom available in emergency. (As long as owner is home)
Your dog will love my backyard. Plenty of room for zoomies inside the fenced area, a pasture area for well-behaved off-leash dogs, and a creek. Plenty of parking and I will give you the wifi password!
Our 2 acre yard out in the country has a stream, a cute trial for hiking and no immediate neighbors. There is an area of short grass and areas of long grass to explore. There are shaded chairs under our poplar tree for the humans.
We own a 6 acre property situated right along 2 running brooks with walking trails throughout. You will have private access to this as we only allow one group at a time.
