• “I am getting older but still love to chase a ball! I love my family (yes, goofy sister, brother, and kitties, too ;), but don’t like dogs that I don’t know in my face.“

  — Deborah S.

• “I am very friendly rescue pup that loves people but I struggle around other dogs and need a private space to run and play“

  — Emma C.

• “shy little malinois x who tends to be calm at home but super crazy at the park!“

  — oli k.

• “I am full of energy and curiosity. I love to play in the water, fetch, learn new tricks, or explore where my brother goes.“

  — Erica K.

• “A sweetheart who looks like a Muppet but loves to wrestle and chase. She still has her puppy energy and since she's a rescue we think she's a little behind on her emotional maturity. She's a ball of love but can nip while playing but doesn't mean to hurt“

  — Kristen S.

• “I work hard and play hard! My most favorite things are food (especially carrots and blueberries) and cuddles. Sometimes I get a little overwhelmed and confused (“no take, only throw” is my motto when playing fetch) but I always love having a task, learning new tricks, and spending as much time as possible with my humans.“

  — Rona B.

• “Hi I’m Wiley! I’m a happy goofy girl who can’t pay attention to mom in a high stimulus environment if my life depended on it! The exception is humans! Holy heck if I see a human I’m under moms legs so fast woofing and grumbling. I don’t want to hurt the humans I’m just a little bit nervous. Mom got me as a rescue and is fairly certain I was abused before coming to live with her:(. Mom and my big brother Max help to show me that the world isn’t a scary place and that I can do anything I put my mind too! I’m a sniffing machine and will track animals all over a yard if I’m allowed too! I LOVE other dogs and haven’t met one that doesn’t love me back yet! I’m a gentle player and great with nervous or undersocialized dogs! My proudest achievement and favourite pastime is bug hunting though! Mom says I’m basically a professional at this point. I may only be nine months old but I’m a smarty pants and can’t wait to explore!“

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.
