• “Hi! My name is Hank… I think..? I am not quite sure who my ancestors are but I gotta know who gave me these huge a$$ paws! Anyway, I just stay looking forward to the next time my mom takes me to grandpa and grandpas so I can run around out back and find sticks so I can eat them and then throw them up the next morning at 3:00 AM!!!!!!!“

  — Addy F.

• “Loves water. Lives for the tennis ball. Excited when meeting new people but you become old news fast and he gets back to what really matters, ball.“

  — Kalen B.

• “Hank is a sweet boy he loves to run and swim. He is protective of me so he only gets along with little dogs. I keep him away from big dogs. He is a rescue.“

  — Mary C.

• “I’m goofy despite my majestic looks. I’m decently trained, and listen when I feel like it. My mom thinks I’m her best boy. Dad is life and my hero. I’d like to have friends, but sometimes I can be a little too much and think it’s my job to herd them. I love exploring new stinks, and playing ball. Don’t even get me started with a water hose!“

  — Sara T.

• “Hank is a gentle, sweet puppy. He just loves to run and jump, then sleep. He loves to chase birds too, so an enclosed area is desirable.“

  — Kenn L.

• “Hank is a cool guy around family and our family's dogs. Loves to snuggle. He gets protective around strangers. He has never bit anyone“

  — Justina H.

• “I love swimming and chasing birds, giving hugs, and dragging my mom on a leash (probably why she’s on here). I get along with all dogs and people :)“

  — Emily P.

• “Hank is a sweet, sensitive soul. He is dog selective so sniffspots are a great option for him!“

  — Tarron R.

• “Hank has never met a human he doesn’t instantly love. He’d go home with a complete stranger and never look back. He loves attention in true French Bulldog fashion. He’s selective when meeting other dogs. He gets frustrated when he can’t have full access but then gets overstimulated and laser focused when allowed to interact. This is why private parks and more controlled environments work best.“

  — Brooke Z.

• “I’m short and stout with a lot grit. Ball is life but my nose often distracts me from my game.“

  — Mindy C.

• “He LOVES all humans! He is super friendly. He was adopted and he seems to be dog aggressive. He needs to be the only dog.“

  — Louise G.

• “I’m Hank! I’m super excited to have just been adopted and get to know all about Fairfax. I love people and other dogs — sometimes too much. My mom is excited to take me to sniffspots where I can explore and run around without having to worry about getting overstimulated.“

  — Riley C.

• “Hank is a total lover of all people and other dogs. He’s very social, and he wants to tell you his life story. But first, throw the ball! Immediately! And then, cuddle.“

  — Rebecca W.

• “You'll never meet another tailless mountain cur like me. I take trazadone and I am still rambunctious.“

  — Bill R.

• “I love to go to the dog park and have to greet every new dog I see. I normally throw my self down submissively, and then take off running to be chased. I never fight with dogs and I like both large and small dogs.“

  — Sarah H.

About the author

David Adams is a man of many passions, but his love for dogs stands above all. He is not only a dog lover, but also the founder of an innovative platform called Sniffspot. 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.
