55An incredible piece of land with all kinds of easy to follow terrain. Our dogs loved playing in the river, sprinting down the trails, and playing fetch in the field. Sandy is amazing to share it with our pups!Eva G.

55This is a GREAT spot!! Woods, fields, a river! Everything your dog could want. I wasn’t exactly sure where to go when we got there but the host replied quickly to my question. Chrissy E.

55This was a great place to take our highly reactive dog. Lots of places for her to sniff and explore. The creek was a great bonus and she happily waded in and splashed around a bit-something she has never had a chance to do before. Private and spacious property with details like marked paths and a bin with waders for crossing the creek were much appreciated. Our girl explored without fear of triggers and she is happy and tired and so are we! 😊Deb B.

55Sandy is very welcoming and her place is great. Our doggie had a great time running on grassy trails. The creek is beautiful. A perfect spot for your dog to cool off. The best sniff spot that we’ve discovered so far.Iwona B.

55Our dog had a ball, lots of space to run and explore. It was a very hot day so the creek was her favorite part. Sandra kindly came to meet us to show us a path to the creek because the way was a bit overgrown the day we were there. Thanks for a fun afternoon !Lauren P.

55Georgi, our German Shepherd, absolutely loves running free in the fields and the paths leading to the creek. It's so great to be able to let her off leash on 100 acres. It's a wonderful experience for all of us! Thank you!!Heidi B.

FAQ about our Ghent 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 Ghent area range from $12.0 and $12.0. The least expensive dog field is Bell River Ranch. The most expensive dog field is Bell River Ranch. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
