  — robert w.

• “I’m Sparrow, a rescued husky mix from FL! I’m 6 years old with ENDLESS energy and love anything having to do with running, balls, water and other dogs. But my brother doesn’t love other dogs, so this app gives us the opportunity to get out and about safely together!“

  — Amanda L.

• “My name is Sparrow! (Named after the great pirate Jack!) I love to run around and roam free whenever I can! I am very fast so I like big yards! I am also very talkative especially when I am happy/having fun. My mom says I’m still a baby even though I am 2 years old! Which means I still have a lot of energy!“

  — Randi F.

• “My name is Sparrow, I am a 3 year old German Shepherd mix. I was rescued from Arkansas when I was a puppy and met my forever family in Wisconsin shortly after. I am the sweetest and most loyal pup there is, but have a reactive side to me that I am working on! I just want a safe and stress free zone to play and run around in off my leash!“

  — Hannah H.

• “Hey there! My name is Sparrow! I’m a 3 year old pittie black lab mix. My mom calls me monkey for some reason - probably because I am silly. I love to play and make new friends but I can jump and get excited especially around people. I just love people so much. I also love playing with my no so little brother Buck. Mom says I’m the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet and that I’m a big softy.“

  — Harley E.

• “My mawm calls me Big Man and Bubby a lot! I’m a cautious boy with clumsy paws and very expressive eyes. My mom adopted me from a farm in Woodbridge, ON so I am a country boy at heart! Even though I try my best every day, I have some reactivity to work on because I have a lot of anxiety and suspicion about the world. I am still learning. I am considered a Livestock Guardian Dog (LGD) and my Anatolian Shepherd side is an ancient breed from Turkey. Because of my LGD traits I see the world differently and navigate a little different than the average dog. Mawm says my training has improved since using Sniff Spot, so thank you to everyone who shares their space with me! ◡̈“
