The Boring Barking Lot - Private Dog Park

This is a 2 acre wooded loop on Mt Scott. Our property bumps up against the Wahoo nature reserve is very private, shaded by large trees and well maintained. Our dog loves the woods and creek. We decided to open it to the community so other dogs and their families can enjoy it.

Large fully fenced yard available for your pups! Very dog friendly! You can park on the left side of the driveway. Then go around the left side of the house, lift the latch and enter the space. There is a hammock you’re welcome to use, along with other outdoor furniture. I’ve put out water bottles, hand sanitizer, and the WiFi info is posted. I’m still improving the space, with a few doggy items on their way, including dog bowls, baggies and a waste receptacle. In the meantime, please put waste in the gray bin on the left side of the house. Thanks!

Fully fenced and fully artificially turfed (other than the two patio areas). All garden/mud areas are fenced to keep dogs out and clean. Doggie bags provided. Bocce ball provided. Additional cost for hot tub, sand message to host for details and pricing. Beer cans for sale, full or empty are $4.

Hello! This yard was made to be shared. A neighbor shared this site with me and I thought it was an amazing idea. While there are no pets here daily, I love sharing the backyard with my friends and their pets. I invite you and your pet(s) to enjoy your own private experience while in a peaceful Portland backyard. I am new here and open to any suggestions you might have. My hope is not only that you enjoy, but you come back.

Large full fenced yard. NO ALCOHOL ALLOWED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

(Note: Bring boots and a rag. Currently muddy. There is a hose to wash off afterwards.) Relax with your pooch in a hidden valley away from street noise in our private dog park called The Dog-Out! Sit in the woodsy A-frame hut, out of the sun or rain while your pups explores the 1/3 acre area. Sit at the picnic table and share lunch together. Need to get out some energy? Run your dog through all the agility obstacles! A Saw-Dust Toilet Outhouse is available for your convenience. See pictures. It’s there incase you need it. Coming Soon: a swing-set for the kids, more obstacles, more toys. Dogs are free to dig as much as they want! Our farm is 1/2 mile down a private drive. The Sniffspot is at our property entrance along our driveway. There’s a mini-Aussie that lives in the white house 500 ft away from the Sniffspot. She might bark, that’s all. ☺️ There is a slight chance of seeing kids walking with their dog, but they know to avoid the Sniffspot. Hey! Follow us on Instagram @TheDog_Out And let the dogs play!

11/29/23: NEW!!! NOW OFFERING COMPLIMENTARY CLEAN RAG AND HAMPER FOR EACH DOG. ONLY ONE PER DOG PLEASE. WE'LL WASH THEM AND REPLACE THEM INTO THE 'CLEAN' RAG BOX AFTER LAUNDERING. Proud to be chosen as Sniffspot's global business model again in the February 27, 2024 online Newsweek magazine, the June 5, 2023 of Womens World magazine. Also featured in Business Insider on June 9, 2022. NOW YOU'RE WELCOME TO DRIVE ONE RIG INTO THE FIELD, MUD FREE (stopping at end of asphalt), then closing the big farm gate behind you so that you can release your 10# and over pup(s) without leashes. or worry of them getting into the road! VERY IMPORTANT: EACH PARK (F1 AND F2) HAS A SEPARATE ENTRANCE AND DRIVEWAY WITH THE SAME ADDRESS. SO, YOU MUST READ THE SPECIFIC DRIVING DIRECTIONS INTO EACH PARK. PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS TOO IF THEY'RE MEETING YOU HERE. THANK YOU!! Upon entering, you won’t be able to see the people or dogs in field one (F1) while you are in F2. Maybe just a glimpse of them when they are arriving or leaving their cars from a distance. We have buildings and trees that separate the two. We offer poop bags all around the field, and a garbage can for your use (used poop bags only please). If you happen to see a pile someone missed, please help us out, but PLEASE BE AWARE OF YOUR PETS AND PICK UP AFTER THEM, TOYS TOO!!!. Thank you so much for your cooperation! We also provide a large fence attached bowl and water hose, balls/chukits and fun toys, comfy swing, and plenty of tables/benches. ALSO, if you'd like to have an event on our farm anywhere, we can discuss your wants and make something work for you. We also host overnight stays in two cottages we have on the property. BUT, you CANNOT bring your pets here to stay the night. We want to keep the cottages pristine and dander free for our Airbnb glamping guests that book here. Thanks for reading! Hope to see you here soon! We know you will love our magical farm!

We are located on 45 acres of private farm land. A wide path leads to the Clackamas River. The pasture isn’t fenced but is surrounded in blackberries and brush. Very private.

Our spot was designed and built specifically to help keep pets home. We are a search and rescue that deals with hard cases and know what its like to have dogs that can’t be around other dogs, animals or people. This spot is dedicated to those dogs in an effort to help keep them active and happy at home so their families don’t have to give them up. All proceeds from this sniffspot go directly to I Paw’d It Forward to continue serving our mission to keep families together.

The trails are fenced in completely and a GREAT opportunity to practice recall and other off leash skills to prepare for future hikes with no boundaries(fencing). We are fully fenced and offer a mini trail system. You can find a long line by the water jug if you are just beginning recall training.
