• “Hi! I’m Augustus! I’m an Italian greyhound born on July 4 2025. I LOVE to sprint and play, but I’m also a bit of a wimp. I don’t like the wind or rain or cold. Mommy wraps me up in jackets but I still complain. I can’t wait to run around in your Sniffspot!“

• “I'm so full of energy. Mommy works nights, and sometimes I can't wait for her to wake up and play with me. I am a complete goofball. I play a little rough, but my older sister will put me in my place. Honestly, she scares me sometimes, but I try to be all cute so she will forgive me.“

  — Michelle M.

David's dedication to providing safe and enjoyable spaces for dogs to play, explore, and socialize is evident in his unwavering commitment to Sniffspot.
