55Great space! Clean, private, peaceful. The river is pretty high right now so we didn't explore the water much (we let him have a leashed sniff on the shore) but we'll definitely come back in warmer weather. The open field area is the perfect size for a hardy game of toss with a Chuck It! Not an issue for my pup, but we could hear dogs barking (across the river?) and some guys in a boat also went by - just an FYI for the most sensitive of doggos. Sarah W.

55We absolutely loved this place! We have a 3 1/2 yr old half German shepherd/half Labradoodle and a 1 yr old Mastiff (who is reactive to other dogs), they were like two kids in a candy store running and sniffing around. They loved it here and were so excited to run around freely! There was a dog that barked in the distance but didn’t phase our dogs. Lots of room to throw a ball, and the pups were tired out in 45 minutes. Great communication with the owner. Fresh water for the dogs, picnic table, port a potty, and garbage can available for use. Access to the river but did not utilize it this visit. Great communication with the owner. Peaceful and quiet environment. We will definitely be back! 🐶🐾❤️🐶🐾Marleea H.

55Probably our new favorite spot. Very quiet, peaceful, my dog loved the water to swim in, only “negative” was there’s some pokies in the grass that she had trouble walking over but wasn’t a huge deal. We just tried to walk where there wasn’t any :) we will be back! Ellaree c.

55Absolutely amazing beautiful spot! My dog had the best time swimming and running in the field. Our 150lb mastiff doesn’t like other dogs so this was perfect for us because it’s very hard finding a spot for him to swim without other people or dogs around. We will for sure be back! So happy we found this spot.Alivia A.

55This spot brings my dog so much joy! Whether it's a solo 1:1 with me, or a play date bringing along her best dogger friend, she has such a great time here. We recently moved and the trip is now about 36 minutes each way, but it's worth every mile! Thanks for such a great spot 💛🌟Suzi M.

55This is a 45 minute drive from home but I will absolutely be back. Large field for zoomies, a little path with lots of good smells between the trees in the back, and a great spot by the river. My dog gets bored easily but we used the entire hour here without a single need for a toy. My favorite spot so far!Amy F.

55The site is fantastic! Tons of space for our dogs to run and stiff, a great spot to work on recall! The host gave us clear instructions on where to park. We should have booked longer! Heather D.

55This place is huge and full of acreage with a lot of continuous sniffing/ exploring for my dog's!!! They absolutely love it here! We also love that there is a porta potty for us humans, and a water hose for dogs to clean them off and give them water. You also have Clackamas River access from this spot. You can also request to camp here...which we will be doing this spring/summer. We love this Spot!!Bart V.

55We absolutely loved this sniffspot 🙂. It was so beautiful and peaceful 🙂. Dodge loved it so much that he didn't even want to leave. He could just wander around without a care in the world. We would definitely come here again and recommend it to everyone to enjoy. Melanie R.

55This is such a fun sniffspot! The field is HUGE and my girl loved having the river access on this hot day. We’d walk around the field and then go cool off in the water 😎 Sad it’s so far from us but it’s worth the drive and we will definitely be back!! Olivia B.

55Super fun spot! Tons of room to roam. Our dogs enjoyed smelling all the smells and playing fetch! The river access is easy to find & we will definitely be back in warmer weather for some wading! The amenities - picnic table under a shade, outhouse, pooper scooper, are all very nice! Alison M.

FAQ about our Pendleton 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 Pendleton area range from $5.0 and $5.0. The least expensive dog field is Heron's Creek in Maltby. The most expensive dog field is Heron's Creek in Maltby. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
