• “Bob is a 2 year old shiba/corgi mix who is working on overcoming his fears of the world. He is sensitive to other dogs but warms up to people instantly. He has been through some basic training but is still working on his abilities. He loves to explore fields and wooded areas, and just loves to be out and about!“

  — Alyssa D.

• “Bob is a Great Dane puppy that is learning to be a perfect companion! She’s highly energetic and has a lot of drive, and would love to play with other dogs! She’s only 5 months, so she’s still learning, but she loves dogs and people, though she can be a bit skittish at the moment whilst we navigate this fear period! She would love to give hugs and kisses.“

This unique platform connects dog owners with private property owners who are willing to rent out their space for off-leash playtime. While the idea of Sniffspot was initially conceived by his wife, Rebecca, David has been the driving force behind its remarkable success, tirelessly overseeing its growth and development. David's dedication to providing safe and enjoyable spaces for dogs to play, explore, and socialize is evident in his unwavering commitment to Sniffspot.

Despite his busy schedule, David always finds time to indulge in his passion for the great outdoors. He loves nothing more than exploring new hiking trails and embarking on thrilling outdoor adventures. Whenever he is not working on Sniffspot, he can often be found hiking or visiting multi-acre fenced sniffspots with his two beloved dogs, Soba and Toshii.
