55This was my first time visiting a SniffSpot, and it was great! Location was clearly marked. It’s a nice sized field that has some tree shade on two sides, and a sweet little creek for dogs to cool their paws and rest in the shade. No gaps in fencing that I saw, and bonus that you can actually drive in and close the gate behind you. I (and my dogs) heard one dog barking on the property to the right (facing the creek) when we walked along that side, but otherwise it was quiet. Great spot for us to spend 45 minutes walking around a few times, or would be good for dogs who like to run and play or chase toys, or just to sit by the creek in the country for a bit. We loved it!Tristan R.

55I would give it more stars if there were more. Perfect for my city dogs. They ran and ran. Thanks for making this place available to dog owners who don’t have big yards. We will be back... Amanda H.

55My boyfriend and I, and most importantly our dog Sawyer, loved this spot! So much room to run and play and Sawyer loved laying down in the little stream to cool off after playing. For the humans I would recommend wearing tall socks and sneakers/boots due to the long grass. So much fun, we’ll be back soon! Abby C.

55Great time had today! The spot is very secure with lots of room to run. There's access to the creek for the pups to get a drink or cool off. Very quiet and peaceful place to hang out as well.Denise Y.

55This place was perfect for us. It’s a wide open space with plenty of room to run and the pups can cool their paws and get a drink in the creek. We will definitely return. Kelly L.

55This place was so fun! There was one small break in the fence in the upper back area so be aware if your dog is an escape artist. We will be back again!

55This was our first visit with our two very energetic Old English Sheepdogs - they had a running blast! The pasture was well maintained and nice touch with provided chairs and hammock for tired “parents”! Candy P.

55Lovely quiet spot in the morning. Liked that we could pull inside the gate and park inside the fence. There are a few toys and plenty of chairs for lounging. My dog was obsessed with the toys the whole time and if your dog doesn’t do well with toys, you may wanna do a quick sweep.Sarah H.

55Spacious and clean space, the fence includes a segment of creek, which was a wonderful feature for my pup. The fence appeared entirely secure. Plenty of shade and places to sit. We stopped here in a road trip and it was the perfect place for a good run for my dog. I initially missed the spot and Elizabeth kindly responded quickly to direct me. It’s easy to find just look for the gate and SniffSpot sign on the right. Kendra B.

FAQ about our Black Mountain 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 can I find dog agility parks in Black Mountain?
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.
