55We had so much fun! Would definitely recommend bringing some dog shampoo if your dog likes jumping into lakes. There were many birds and ducks to chase. Will be coming back. Thanks!Denise M.

55To get there, at the end of the road, go through the gates and go left past the other houses. I got a little confused but you’ll see a sign for sniff spot after that :)hannah m.

55Took me a minute to find the correct home but once I did it was easy to let ourselves in. Had SO much fun. My dog swam for hours chasing the ducks. There were a few people around but for the most part it was only us. Victoria L.

55Super cool place! Plenty of space for our dogs to run around like crazy. Nice and private and just a few people walking by the trail behind the property. My dog couldn’t get enough of jumping into the pond and swimming from one side to the other. 10/10 Recommend if you have a dog that loves to run and swim or if you want to see if your dog likes to swim!

55Wonderful property! It was easy to find and tons of things to do. We saw a rabbit and ducks geese etc. The pond is stunning and there are hammocks and seating areas and bathrooms!!! Best one yet. Only downfall is tons of bugs so bring your bug spray but that is to be expected. Wish we would have booked longer. Met the owner and he is super nice as well. Miranda F.

55This was a beautiful well-kept space! My dogs and I had such a fun time exploring and fetching in the water. There are some bird wildlife but we didn’t have any issues. It’s fenced all the way around. There were some people (the owners I believe) who walked outside a few times but they didn’t interact or have any issues. Some parts of the water were stinky but that’s a given considering it’s a pond with wildlife. There were a few bones on the ground which my dogs were keen to picking up but it’s such a big space it’s likely from birds or wildlife that ate something. Nothing to be concerned about. It was a very nice spot! I hope to come back in the future :) Crystal M.

55My 3 dogs had a blast, it's pretty and peaceful there, love that it's fenced in so no worries... I have a coonhound that bayed to his heart's content swimming and chasing the poor ducks, he was in heaven howling and I didn't have to worry about bothering anyone ..
Thank you Dave, you were so nice and let me know I could use doggie towels and a hose off ... and there was plenty of parking and room to
turn around a big truck and trailer ... we'll be back 😍😍😍M D.

55My dogs were really happy here! Thanks so much for making our day today 😄
We’ll definitely be back. Since it’s getting hot out, early in the morning is best for us. I especially appreciated that the entire perimeter was well fenced and a nice clean bowl of water was available (and, of course, my dogs loved exploring the pond).Melanie P.

55Perfect for a hot day, the dogs jumped right into the pond and cooled right off. It was great to have some space for them to run around and then to rinse off with the hose was also very helpful. Plenty of shade as well if you just want to hang out and cool off. Julie H.

55We had an amazing time! Our dogs loved swimming in the pond. Only thing to make note of is to make sure your dogs are people friendly, as the description states, there are occasionally human visitors. Would definitely recommend!Harly B.

FAQ about our Homeland 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 Homeland area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Dogland! 3 acres of farm dogging fun!. The most expensive dog field is Dogland! 3 acres of farm dogging fun!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
