HOST REPORTS

No

The only dogs that are on or near my property are my own dogs, who are not reactive. During your visit, I'll make sure that my dogs are out of sight and quiet. If your dog(s) come up on the decks around the house, my dogs will bark, but usually guest dogs are more interested in roaming in nature than coming up to the front door.

HOST REPORTS

No

No other domestic animals are on site, except for my indoor cat. She sometimes sits in the kitchen window and is visible from the yard. Most dogs do not notice her, as the kitchen window is about 10 feet above ground. If this is a problem for your dog, you can easily steer clear of the house.

Location

Black Hawk, Colorado

Description

Take a lovely walk in the woods with your dog, let them sniff and enjoy nature. Three acres of forest, fully fenced for your enjoyment. This is not the average suburban development -- this is more like hiking in the National Forest. Lots of squirrels to chase, sniffs to enjoy and hills to run up and down. You won't have any issues with dogs or people on adjacent properties! This property is surrounded by National Forest and unfenced/unused private property. In addition, you have another acre for agility, complete with jumps, tunnels, dog walk, a-frame, teeter, etc. All high end equipment. The running surface is flat & covered with wood chips. The course is changed every Monday morning. Course maps are in the box hanging on the entrance gate. The wood chips are all from local trees, so no worries about added chemicals, etc. Several seating areas are provided, along with a picnic table.

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

This is like hiking in National Forest. The ground is uneven and hilly. Wildlife abounds. You are likely to see hummingbirds, ravens, and hawks. You might see coyotes, deer, elk, or moose on the way to my house. Mountain lions and bobcats also live in the nearby forests, but you are very unlikely to see them. The fence keeps the undesirables out of the area that you will be in. NOTE: Some of you have asked about snakes...and the answer is...NO! We do not have any snakes at this altitude! Thank goodness!

Extras

Agility Equipment0 credits

A new course every week! Course maps available at the gate. Unless it is snowing! First class agility equipment, including Clip-N-Go teeter, dog walk & A-Frame. Three tunnels with sand bags, many jumps. Pro tip: keep the jump bars below the height of your dog, at the shoulder, particularly for agility-beginners! Safety tip: rest the jump bars in the cups, so that they can easily fall off.

Dog Toys0 credits

We have a cooler that is overflowing with dog toys! Please play with them while you are here! Our cooler also acts as a lost & found, for dog toys. If you accidentally left a toy behind, on a previous visit, you'll probably find it in the bin. If so, feel free to take it home! Enjoy!

Firefighters, Federal EEs, etc0 credits

We would like to celebrate two of our favorite local volunteer firefighters, Nouh Lahoud & Halcy Webster, who just graduated from the Fire Academy! Congratulations! In honor of their accomplishments, we offer a discount to all firefighters! We also appreciate our Civil Servants, Federal workers, and any others who are struggling with the fallout from DOGE, etc. You can all claim your discount with: YouAreValued!

High Country Bird Watching0 credits

In addition to nuthatches, finches, chickadees, juncos, siskins, grosbeaks, crossbills and woodpeckers, you will sometimes see Western tanangers, hawks, and turkeys. And ONCE -- I saw a Golden Eagle!!!!! Hummingbirds, May through August: broadtailed, caliope, rufous & black chinned. TONS of hummers! If you download Merlin Bird ID, a free app from Cornell, you can turn on the SoundID and it will identify all of the species currently singing to you.


Introverts' Package0 credits

If your dog is a confirmed introvert -- or if you are -- this is your kind of Spot! I'll plan to be gone when you are here, or stay inside the house. My dogs will be quiet and invisible. You can park up by the Sniffspot sign, away from the house and come straight into the agility field, through the metal gate. Let me know if there is anything else I can to do help out! I want everyone to feel welcome, in whatever way suits you best!


Rescues & fosters0 credits

We love to support those of you who are rescuing and fostering dogs! To claim your discounts, use these codes: ILoveFosters or MyDogsARescue And, thank you for what you do!


Tips for Reactive Dogs0 credits

This is a perfect place for reactive or sensitive dogs. Here are some safety tips: Arrive & leave on time. I often use the 30 minute buffer between guests for my dogs, so don't come in early or leave late. Check for other vehicles, to make sure no one else is here. My Kia might be here, but no other vehicles should be here. Stay off the decks around the house, as that will trigger my dogs to bark. These areas are fenced off, to make that easy for you. Have a great time!


Weather!0 credits

Yup, we have weather! Sometimes it snows, sometimes it rains, sometimes the wind blows. As we say up here, there is no bad weather, only insufficient clothing. But, seriously, please be prepared with an extra layer of clothing and good shoes. If your visit was spoiled by a sudden storm, let me know and I can issue you a discount for your next visit!


Wi-fi0 credits

I love dogs, which is how I ended up living in a place that dogs love! I have 4 acres of woodlands around my house, 2 acres are fenced, with an additional acre in an agility field. I have loved and trained dogs who are reactive and am well aware of the concerns and the ways to help.
