• “I am 7 years old, cautiously shy towards people until I get to know them, then I become a big suck. I love being around my mom so whenever she calls I’m there. I really love going on walks with her and it’s even better when I can walk without a leash because I love exploring and getting sniffs in lots of places my mom can’t reach.“

• “Hello there, my name is Mario! I am 10 years old and was adopted from a shelter when I was 8 months old. I’ve slowed down throughout the years but I have a younger brother who keeps me on my toes. I love just going my own pace and sniffing around. Even though I am too short to look out the windows, once my younger brother calls the alarm, I do my best to help him let our family know the mail man is there. As a matter of fact, I used to really not like my older brother… he just bathed into my home one day, but I got used to him over the past couple years.“

  — Sam W.

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.
