• “Hi, I’m Tilly! My parents adopted me in 2022 and they say that I’m the best thing that happened to them! I LOVE fetch and could play with a tennis ball all day every day…that’s why my mom and dad love taking me to SniffSpots! I don’t really like other dogs or do well around them, so my parents enjoy renting out a nice grassy area where they can safely know I won’t meet any other dogs, and where I can play fetch to my hearts content! Because of my background before I was at the animal shelter where my parents found me, I’m also very scared of other humans, and pretty protective of my mom and dad (I’m just so happy they found me and that I’m a part of their family!), so I don’t really like to meet new people :/ But that’s why SniffSpots are my favorite…because I get to play fetch for a WHOLE hour with mom and dad, and I don’t have to worry about scary dogs or humans coming in! So thank you for lending us your yard - I’m so grateful! 🐶“

  — Melissa and Billy R.

• “Ball is life. I get very excited about other dogs that I can see. Ball. Water is awesome once we've checked to make sure it isn't scary. I love ball. Sirens are awesome backup singers. Ball.“

  — Nicholas T.
