55Amazing spot! My hound mix went wild with sniffing. The trails are so extremely private, with cute fairy surprises throughout. There are definitely a few holes in the fence, but the area is so secluded that it’s not an issue for dogs with decent recall. Steph C.

55Wonderful outing! Three doggos met up. We all enjoyed the trail network. The whimsical art installations were absolute frosting on an already peanutbutter, oats and applesauce topped with greek yogurt doggy cake of a spot! The land has a good feeling to it. Definitely on our list to do again.Jo F.

55I loved how many trail options you had! You didn’t have to take a specific one! It was all up to the pups and yourself! Twas peaceful to hear the birds singing while walking the pups. Luci Y.

55The dogs loved racing down the many wide mossy trails. They had so much fun exploring. There were a couple of times when they ignored the wire fence, but they were happy to come right back and explore within bounds. Sandra K.

55Absolutely magical private woods. Our dog’s favorite Sniff Spot by far. Love all the gnome-chic decorations throughout the forest. Very well contained/fenced as well. Henry W.

55This place sucks. Don't even bother....
Okay, I'm completely lying...
I don't even know where to begin with how AMAZING this Sniffspot is! So many fun things for both the doggies and their humans! There are little ceramic creatures around every corner and awesome little life reminder signs for you! There's even a true 'fork' in the road, where you decide which way you want to go next. I can't decide if it's more fun or peaceful here! It's BOTH! We wanted to stay all day... And night!
There's a grassy field for you to toss the ball for your pup, and they have a cute little "concession" stand with drinks and treats, and other things for you, right there. Even a stage, in case your pups want to put on a show for you. Or maybe you want to put on a show for your pups! Either way, here's your off-leash show venue.
There are many trails that all loop around to the entrance, so there's a ton of places to wander without getting lost (or without losing your dog. lol).
There are even little spots along the trail that made me want to just sit and meditate, while my pups wandered the woods by themselves. It's fenced and contained well enough that I probably could have, too. They've truly made this place a magical forest.
Be careful though, you might have so much fun looking at all of the woodland creatures and fun additions to the woods that you forget you're here for your pup to play! I did because I was taking so many photos of all the fun things placed about!
All in all, Don's In The Woods is completely, over-the-top AMAZING!!!
Thank you SO much, Harold and Moira, for not only opening a private spot for us to bring our dogs to, but making it an adventureland for all!! It truly was more than a pleasure to visit your Sniffspot and we can't wait to come back!!
*** So yeah, basically like I said, it sucks. You don't want to go there... ;p
But if you do, you'll have a blast...
(I just don't want to end up being unable to come hang out here because the time slots are taken all the time.)
I'll share a few photos with you, but don't want to share too many. I think you'll enjoy getting to discover the mystery of this magical forest on your own... Trent M.

55Love coming back to this spot! It was raining but lovely under the trees. My girl has been spooked by the neighbors' cows and pigs by the entrance road, but since the weather was so yucky they were all indoors and we had a blast!Kei T.

55We had so much fun with our 3 yr old lab! So many cute signs and gnomes and the moss covered ground had us calling it the Magical Forest. Lots of little surprise trinkets along the way. We’ll definitely be back! Courtney C.

55Many mossy trails wind through a forest of tall trees where you feel secluded. You'll discover a number of treasures and art along the route. Perhaps there will be a Bigfoot sighting. There's an open meadow with tall grass and even an outhouse! It's bug season so do what you need to do to protect humans and dogs from mosquitoes. For my dog it was all wags all the time!Karen D.

FAQ about our Arlington 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 Arlington?
There are 61 dog fields in the Arlington area. The most popular dog field is Hike up the mini forest. 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 Arlington area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is West Seattle Pouches. The most expensive dog field is West Seattle Pouches. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
