55This spot is awesome- especially for fearful or reactive dogs! My pup gets scared easily at new spots but the host keep their dogs silent & my dog was able to have a blast with no worries of strangers or dogs. Such an amazing location to explore and the agility field is super cool! The dirt driveway is rather rough so be careful in small cars if it is muddy, but mine made it up with no problem today.

55Brought my 2 dogs. They absolutely loved it! They had so much fun sniffing around and playing. One of my pups is sensitive so it was really nice knowing we had the place to ourselves and didn't have to worry about any encounters with other people/dogs. Maria C.

55Our dogs had a great time at Melissa's place. Melissa was very responsive anytime I messaged her. There was still deep snow so bring snow boots! Priscilla M.

55Fantastic! Dogs LOVED it! The slick spring snow and ice made it a little difficult at times for my older dogs to get around on the slope, but they found their way around :) My dogs are not into agility courses but that area made for a good place at the end of trip to slow down, get some water and get some last sniffs before heading home. 4 out of 4 front paws approve! Will definitely be back! Thanks!Megan M.

55The instructions/directions from the host were great, and the entrance gate even had a helpful property map. The property itself was super fun and our dog loved it! Lots of good sniffs, especially in the woods. We will definitely be back!Hannah M.

55Our dogs loved it here, and we had fun too! The area was clean and very well maintained. You can tell this is a place built around a lot of love for dogs! We have a reactive dog, and he loved being able to run around and be free without seeing/hearing any triggers. Absolutely will be coming back! Claire S.

55I couldn’t have asked for a better place for my pup to run free! He had so much fun playing in the snow, running through the trees, and digging through the toy box. We were both sad to leave! Ashley V.

55Melissa’s property is nothing short of amazing! We took our dog there for his 4th birthday and he had the absolute best time running free through the woods and also testing his skills out in the agility park. It just happened to snow the day before which was an added bonus for our pup. We will definitely be back!Cole R.

55Everything was beyond perfect! We had an amazing time, my dog LOVED it, and we are both worn out lol! Melissa’s kindness, accommodations, and hospitality is so amazing. The Sniffspot was super easy to find with Apple Maps also. We drove over from Parker, and the drive was gorgeous. What a great experience and way to spend a Saturday afternoon(: we can’t wait to come back! Thank you! Sam M.

55Our dogs LOVED it here! Even my pup who can be scared in new places was very comfortable here. They ran around, played, explored, chased balls, & rolled in the remaining snow. They also did great with the agility equipment- I expected some hesitation around the foreign equipment but nope, not here! Agility has been something I wanted to test with my pup to see if she’d like it so it was cool to get a few different experiences in this one spot! Easily a favorite spot, we’ll definitely be back!Sarah W.

55Great SniffSpot for my reactive dog. He even went through the agility tunnels for the first time, and several times! Bonus points for the seasonal snow patches left for him to munch on 😄Rowan S.

55Melissa’s spot is perfect. We have two reactive pups and were able to completely unwind and let loose while they got to explore her beautiful property. She has everything you could need there - and then some!
You can’t hear any cars, only nature/birds.
I haven’t seen our pups so relaxed (and tuckered out) in forever.
The entire experience was well worth the 2 hour round trip for us and we’ll certainly be back! Thanks, Melissa! 🐾🐶Kennedy W.

55Cookie and Pasta had a blast. Both the agility and the wooded area were clean and well kept. It really is a great spot for some safe off leash time! Winifred L.

55What an awesome spot! Plenty of space to explore, play and relax and enjoy the quiet. Fencing is tall and secure for my fence-jumping master dog and we all loved testing out the agility equipment. We will absolutely be back!Kathy I.

FAQ about our Black Hawk dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, with Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
