• “Nena is a rescue, that I adopted in 2023. She is a huge flight risk, hence the need to ensure a fully fenced in Sniffspot. Two years later and she is still coming out of her shell! She is excellent with dogs smaller than her but will be reactive to dogs her size or larger. Introductions are best done on leash with parallel walking. She does have prey drive for squirrels, chickens, cats.“

Follow me for my daily life or adventures @itsnenaxoxo“

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.
