Three plus private fully fenced in acres of running and romping in the woods. (Thei is no lighting in The Field, if coming after dark, bring a flashlight) | Sniffspot
55Large grassy area surrounded by woods. My dog enjoyed running on the paths and through the brush. We saw no other animals and it was away from the main road as well. Don’t forget to bring your own bags! M. M.

55Both dogs loved the open space and fields to run and sniff. Couple of toys to play with and poop bags if needed. My dogs were happy to just run and sniff though. Wonderful quiet area 😊Melissa D.

55My dogs had a great time here! There were a lot more mowed paths than I expected, so lots to explore on the 5 acres. We will definitely book again here.Sara M.

55Fantastic spot! Lots of mowed trails through a field of tall grass. Lots to sniff. My dogs aren't into toys, but there was a grassy area with two chairs and a box of toys. They have also mowed a longer run for games of fetch. There is some farming equipment in the tall grass, so if this bothers you this might not be the place for you. For my dogs it just added additional interesting things to sniff! Before arriving I wondered if I would know which 5 acres were the sniffspot, but the owners had described it perfectly, so it was easy to visualize the boundaries. I didn't spot a water bowl or the hose, but I brought my own water and collapsible bowl so didn't spend any time looking for them. Will definitely be back!Carrie W.

55We brought our 2 dogs (and our toddler) here this morning and had a great time! We were a little worried about the area being unfenced with parking close to the road.. but honestly, we barely noticed once we started in on the trails and the dogs were way too interested in the new sniffs and running through the long grass. Toys, water, and chairs were a nice touch. Very peaceful walk with the doggos. Will be back!Chelsea C.

55This was perfect. The directions about parking and amenities are very accurate. The camp chairs and the toy box are in a great spot. We didn't have time to sit though because this space is large and we walked the whole time.Andrea C.

55The area was exactly as described. My dog loved his visit and sniffed absolutely everything. After a walk he got a burst of energy when the toy box was opened and played with every toy. Kristine H.

55We had a fantastic time again. It's such a treat to watch the dogs just 'be dogs' sniffing and running without worry about being bothered by other dogs or people. Sara M.

55Our pup really enjoyed her hour at Hobby Farm! The mowed trails were nice to walk, and it was also fun just sitting and throwing the ball for her in the big mowed area. It was great to see her running off-leash! We’ll be back. 🙂Leslie K.

55We loved walking the trails while our dogs ran through the grass. The property was clearly marked with a number of different paths. There were even toys and doggie bags available. We can't recommend this spot enough. Will definitely be coming back here! Kyle C.

55It was a cold day and our walk was just what we needed. This front meadow is easy to find and the path is well marked. It starts right by the mailbox. We had a lot of fun exploring. I’ve never tried an unfenced spot before, so we practiced a lot of recall along the way. Mary-Fred B.

FAQ about our Anoka 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.
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 Anoka area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Fenced yard in Gold Bar. The most expensive dog field is Fenced yard in Gold Bar. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
