About dogs named Gumbo

The following are 9 profiles of dogs named Gumbo from our database of 33 dogs with the name Gumbo.

• “I am a cute and sweet guy if you are a woman! I am SO afraid of men and many dogs that are my size or bigger. I love puppies! I weigh 80lbs and love to just run back and forth sniffing everything. I need shade since I have a warm double coat. I also LOVE to swim and have a hard time finding private places to do so. My mom knows I need space from people, dogs, and things like helicopters. Im afraid of them since I was in the Hurricane in Louisiana years ago. I just can't shake it despite all the training and reassurance over the years. She does a great job speaking human to others to make sure I have that space. I'm excited to find places where I can just run off leash for 30 mins or use agility equipment to help me get back in shape since gaining during the covid lockdown when the trails were closed“

  — Carol Ann C.

• “Loves to run, play fetch and be near humans! We run around on a long lead in a nearby park during off-hours but it's great to have him off-leash in a large safe, dog-free space, since other dogs make him uncomfortable.“

  — Ashley K.

• “I’m the sweetest schnauzer you will ever meet. A new brother, Remy, joined our family in June of 2022. I just love him, even though sometimes I’m his chew toy. Please lord give him adult teeth ASAP!“

  — Debra T.

• “Gumbo is a little guy who never seemed to grow out of the mamas boy faze. He is shy with new people and dogs but warms up very quickly to dogs of any size! Currently to young and small for sniffspot but just making his profile anyways.“

  — Sylvie K.

• “Hi! Im Gumbo, a five year old MACC alumnus. I love getting the zooms, sniffing, exploring, and splooting out in the sunshine.“

  — Brax P.

  — samuel b.

  — Judson L.

• “Full of energy!! This girl loves to play & be chased by her brother, Capone!“

  — Carly W.

• “Gumbo here! I’m equal parts crazy, cool and cute. My mom spoils the heck out of me and she’s really my favorite person. I love making new friends but not with squirrels, I’m not a fan of those guys. I love to run, play and get yummy treats whenever I learn a new command. People say I look like Petey from The Little Rascals, but I think I’m much cuter. What do you think?“

  — Suratu I.

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. He strongly believes that dogs need ample space and opportunities to stretch their legs and have fun. As a result, he has worked tirelessly to build a network of private property owners across the country who share his vision and are willing to offer their space for the benefit of dogs and their owners. 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.
