1st time we've done anything like this, and what a great experience. My only complaint is we should have done the hour. 😉 I felt secure with my dog, fence was fully in tact, 2 gates to enter for extra protection, and such a beautiful view. Can't wait to see what's to come for K9 Ranch.
Great space! The fence was secure and high enough that I didn’t have to worry about my dogs being escape artists. The area was clean and fresh water was available as listed. I have three exhausted and happy dogs - we’ll definitely be back!!
Amazing time!!! Again!! We plan to do this at least once a month, hopefully! Especially now that we’ve connected with all but one of our pups litter mates!!
Great location, lots of room to run and the extras (toys, water, picnic tables, porta potty) were super appreciated!
Fun open field for my boys to run around in. We were even able to use the available raised beds to practice some training. Would definitely come back!
Back to their favorite place to run and play, AmericanK9 Dog Ranch, never disappoints. Secure, plenty of room for the dogs to run, toys to keep them busy and even a spot for us to sit and relax while they play! Thanks again, Krys!
This spot gets an A+! It's a beautiful peaceful place to bring your dog for private playtime away from the dog park. Our little buddy had a blast fetching in the pasture which was well maintained and provided shade for our pup to take breaks (and benches for human breaks!) Thank you for offering this wonderful space! We will 100% be back!
Quiet, and a great run
Really clean and open space! Will definitely come back!
Beautiful, secure, fully fenced in. Plenty of room for throwing a frisbee uphill (or on even ground) to tire out my high energy boy. On the way in we saw a few goats and chickens in enclosures and a couple dogs barking in the boarding facility, but that doesn’t bother my dog. We’ll definitely return!
We love this place, and the dogs do, too!
So peaceful, clean and a great place for my labs to run. Thank you!! We will be back and for training
Area was super clean, fresh cut grass and very spacious. Both my pups along with my wife and I had a great time. Will be booking again in the near future.
We were unable to make our date because of thunderstorms but have been here before and absolutely love it! Kris was quick with communication and very helpful and we are already planning to re-book ASAP!
Everything was as advertised. Very peaceful setting. Dogs had a blast. Water on site too !
River and I’s first time at AmericanK9 Dog Ranch but definitely not our last. Nice grassy pasture to run and plenty to sniff and observe for curious pups. We’ll look forward to more adventures this fall.
Very large field perfect for dogs to run in! Would recommend.
This place was amazing! The dogs had a blast and ran their hearts out! More space than they knew what to do with and Savannah made friends with the baby goats. Will definitely be back!!
We had a great time at this sniff spot today. There was so much space for my girl to run around and sniff a whole bunch of new things! She had such a good time. My husband and I really appreciated the picnic tables in the shade.
Enjoyable experience, only one fenced in area is available currently but they have plans to repair the other enclosure and expand it with even more so eventually this Will be the best spot in the area imo. Can’t wait to see what they do with it!
Nice spot! They have plans to make this probably the best spot in the area but for now with some fence damage the area to run isn’t terribly huge (looked bigger in the photos) but I’d say it’s maybe between a half acre to a full acre. There is a ton of noise (road, goats, chickens, neighbors, etc) even though it’s in the country and our scared kiddos, that we take to places like this vs a dog park so they can enjoy themselves, didn’t have a total blast like they have at other spots but they did get to run and exercise which was the goal :) looking forward to the completed project, our kids will absolutely LOVE running in a seven acre fenced area.
Beautiful property and WAY better than a dog park. Actual grass for the dogs to run around on, sniff, and not at all stinky like a dog park can get. Will definitely be coming back.
My experience with the AmericanK9 dog ranch was superb! Krys reached out to me in advance to assure me that everyone would be gone before our visit and let me know that there would be dogs within earshot but not sight as I had mentioned my dog is reactive. The actual spot was awesome, clean, well maintained, and plenty of toys to choose from to play with. My dog had a great time, and I will definitely be back again.
We had a great time watching our 4 boys run and play, sniff and snort at your Sniffspot. It was very clean and welcoming. Thank you!!!
Amazing place! Tons of room to play and it was so pretty!
Always a great time when we come. My pups have a blast.
Always a great visit to stretch the legs and run around like a good ball.
Dogs absolutely loved their evening. Our last visit was half rained out and Krys was nice enough to add 30 minutes to our next visit
We took four dogs to this spot & they enjoyed every minute of it!
As always, our fur babies had a blast. We love coming here. We are so glad we found this place. We will be back soon! 😊
The American K9 Ranch is a great spot for me to take my dog to work on his training. There is plenty of space and the staff is very kind! Highly recommend this location.
Lots of room to run and places to sniff. Both dogs loved it!
Great experience, spot was just as described and a fun meetup location for a doggy play date last minute. Already recommended to friends. We’ll be back!
Great spot to exercise the dogs. Shade, Water, toys and poop bags are available. We have made this location as one of our go to spots.
Very well maintained fields that pups loved to chase balls in. The right field also had a hose and bucket so the dogs could cool off and stay hydrated. Some area were shaded, which was nice. Picnic tables for humans and a good variety of toys and balls for the dogs.
Always a great spot to visit!
Krys's Sniffspot is amazing!! What a great location! Easy to find, lots of parking, and a huge grassy field to run and roll in! There are about 3 picnic tables in each field, and everything was clean and well maintained. Krys was super responsive to all my questions, and just made everything easy.
I highly recommend this spot for a breed meetup, or (as we did) for a doggy birthday party! It easily accommodates a crowd of dogs and people. Plenty of shade, and we brought a collapsible dog pool which we filled with the hose Krys left attached to the water spigot for us.
One tiny note is that they have chickens and ADORABLE baby goats in a pen near the field. Not a problem at all for our guys, but if you have a pup with an exceedingly high prey drive they might just spend the whole time in the one corner staring at the goats. I wouldn't worry about the dog breaking out of the field (or into the goat pen), but it is something to be aware of if your dog is very triggered by that.
Will definitely be back!
Best Sniffspot I’ve been to! Lots of room to run and picnic tables for the humans
Love this location! Tons of space, they even have toys! Such a great spot
What an amazing place! From fresh water, toys, and an incredible yard for our dogs to run.. the yard was so large they didn’t even use the whole space!! It was shaded and peaceful. Can’t recommend this ranch enough.
We had such a blast at the K9 dog ranch! The property was very well maintained and came with fresh water and lots of toys. Our pups had the best time and we will definitely be coming back!
Great spot! Fence was well maintained and it was very clean. Enough trees to provide some shade. Our dog loved it!
This place is wonderful. Huge
shade trees and sunlight dappled picnic tables, water bowls and sniffs for days! There are two fenced in areas that share a fence, so depending on your pups reactivity level, you might want to check if another dog will be on the other side.
The dogs had an amazing time running around. Everything was very well maintained and had everything you could need. We will definitely be back.
Clean, lots of space, and fresh water on site was a huge plus.
We had an awesome visit to the K9 Ranch today. Great weather and fun runs and toys for the pups. They slept most of the day after. 😃
Wonderful fully fenced paddocks with tons of toys and plenty of space to run around and fetch. Griffey absolutely loves it here, perfect for bringing multiple dogs and a bottle of wine or sandwiches to make an afternoon of it
Great experience this morning! Our three dogs had plenty of space to run and play. Liked that it was nicely mowed and well fenced. The shade kept it cool even on a warm day. We left a wubba that ended up on the edge of the pond....bad throw.
Beautiful property! Two separate poop trash cans, one for each field, very convenient. Didn't see any drinking water but maybe I missed it. Only issue I had was trying to figure out how to open the cattle door! But very clean and the double entrance is great for peace of mind. Took two dogs I was dog sitting here and they loved it, I felt they were safe even though I didn't know them as well as my own dog.
Such an awesome space! Had all the fun toys and essentials. We loved the water from the frost proof. Mila Mae had a BLAST and we will definitely be back!
Amazing! Great place to let your dog run. Well marked and easy to find. Plenty of shade and picnic tables. We had a great time!
Great
Another great visit to the ranch today. Two tired pups in the car!
Took both of our dogs and they had a great time! Plenty of room to run with great amenities. We will definitely be going back! Thank you!
Kenzie has had training with American K9 and I’m already used to their outstanding service and commitment to dogs! Any chance you have to use American K9…take it!
Super big, well maintained and a solid fence line 👍🏻
Great spot!
Great fun despite the wetness! Dogs loved the freedom to run in the beautiful fields
Fantastic, peaceful location, trees and grass in the enclosure, double-gated field entry for security. 2 brand new picnic tables and a bench in the shade, and a lovely breeze flows through the area, too! There are a few toys here if you forget your own, but there’s so much to sniff that my terrier didn’t even care to play ball! He’s a small dog, and there’s one (or two?) small place along a gate where the wire fencing leaves an inviting smidge of space (along the bottom) if your pup is an escape artist. Mine was totally fine and we had no issues. We absolutely loved this place and will be back soon. It’s safe, strong, well-designed, and well-maintained.
We had a great time, plenty of room to run and play. The host even let us know ahead of time that it would be muddy (no problem for us, but a nice gesture!)
Amazing as always!!
This spot was absolutely amazing!! It was very spacious, beautiful, and clean. We will definitely be coming back. It was amazing to see our puppy have so much fun off leash with her friend!!
We LOVED it here! SO much room to run, SO many new smells, and SO many toys!! All in such a bucolic setting.
It felt downright luxurious having that much space, all to ourselves. Krys, the host, was great -replying quickly to messages and questions. 30-40 min drive from DC. Highly recommended!
Great area for pups!
Such a wonderful place! My dog and I had a blast. This really is heaven for pups! We will be back again.
This is a great spot! It’s very secure with plenty of space for our dog to run. They had water, poop bags and trash cans, picnic tables and some nice toys to play with. There was some barking from some dogs nearby but they were not visible. We had a great time and will definitely be back.
Great space! Completely fully-fenced with plenty of room for zoomies! There are picnic tables and toys...something for everyone. We will definitely come back!
Lovely spot with plenty of room for pups to run and sniff!
Clean and great space! The 4 acre description is a little misleading but i would definitely come back to host a pup party or playdate. Still a huge area with more than enough space to run around and have a great time. Thanks again for sharing your space :)
Outstanding property…def one of the best in the DMV
This is an idyllic spot to take your pup. Fresh air, tons of open space, well-fenced, nice shade for resting. Highly recommend!
My puppy loved the ranch. He played fetch and got to see his fav trainer, Kerstin. He slept all the way home so it was an excellent trip! Lol
The property is set back from the road along a quiet gravel driveway. There are two fenced in yards with double gates and the yards are huge. There was a basket of toys and picnic tables which was fantastic. My 12 year old dog loved sniffing everything and my brothers 1.5 year old dog ran and played fetch. It was great! The owner was there and was kind enough to show us the boarding facility. They even do dog events which is cool. We will certainly be back!
It was really nice, but there was no warning about how muddy the field would be and there was also no way to hose off my dog before putting her in the car. I also wish there were instructions about if you could use the field to the right. We ended up using a smaller pasture that was super muddy and probably not worth the drive. All in all my dog did have fun though!
Very nice space. Loys of room with plenty of seating. Definitely recommend! Looking forward to seeing all the add-ons the host mentioned in the description!
I am so happy I found this place. My 2 dogs had a ball having their own space to rip and run off some of that energy. The field was clean, a little on the muddy side but that was expected since it rained the night before. But overall we had a great time and I will definitely bring my pups back soon!
We had our first visit to American K9 Dog Ranch this afternoon with our 18 month old German Shorthaired Pointers twins. The property is wonderful! It was great to turn them loose and watch their speed in a safe environment. It is the perfect serting for us to practice recall with them. Our family had a great afternoon. Ranger and River were living their best life. We will definitely be back. Thank you for providing this opportunity. We look forward to much more time with American K9!
Great open area for your pups to run and play! Water and poop stations on site!
Great place and our dog loved it will be going back soon
Awesome experience here with our two dogs! The owner was welcoming and super friendly. The yard was perfect for our two goldens! There were lots of toys and water for them to play with.
My puppy, Onyx, had an absolute blast sniffing around and playing fetch!
Lovely spot for the dog to run around. Toys, water, and great fencing. We hope to be back soon!
This was a fantastic spot to let our reactive dog get a chance to run around
Beautiful spot with 2 usable super secure fenced areas. There are trees too which will be awesome when the weather warms up bc my guy gets hot quickly. My dog is dog reactive and he could here the kennel dogs now
and then but was confused as to where they were bc he couldn’t see them. No big deal for him. Great communication with Krys too!
Great spot Theo had a lot of fun sniffing around. We live in an apartment and it was so nice to be able to let him off leash and do his own thing.
Such a great space and amenities! Appreciate how the fields are set up, and especially impressed at the security and cleanliness. Already look forward to next visit :) Also, communication with Krys was great in her very timely and clear response to my question.
I have a four-year-old German Shepherd that is high energy and loves to run! This is the perfect spot for my dog to stretch out her legs without having to worry about any dog park drama! The spot is fully fenced in which gives me a sense of security I didn’t know I needed. This SniffSpot is well-kept and has poop bag stations for any unloading your dog may do…doo 😂 although I went by myself with my dog, there are picnic tables if you decide to bring your family to play or benches to sit on! This SniffSpot also provides some dog toys (I brought my own because my dog is obsessed with her tennis ball and tennis ball launcher). I was pleasantly surprised to see water and water bowls provided! Again, I came prepared but now I know the next time I come! I went around dusk and the sunset was absolutely breathtaking! I had a wonderful experience and I will surely be back!
Lovely and spacious. The water and toys are a nice touch. Ruby ran and sniffed to her heart’s content.
My dog loved the expansive yards and she got a great workout chasing balls up and down the hill. There were water buckets, and there were poop bag dispensers and receptacles in both fields which was very convenient. We’ll be back.
The fields are clean, fencing is well...fields are large, dogs had a blast, owners were very nice...water buckets and poop stations/bags provided. Some fun toys provided also at the front gates and that I can't wait to come back! Also, very relaxing and scenic
Great fields for running. Tired them out
Awesome place! Secured, clean and scenic! Great toys available too.
This spot is perfect! There are two separate gated areas that provide plenty of space for your dog(s) to get their zoomies out. There is a gate that connects both areas that you can leave open to make one giant yard! The security of the gates put me at ease, as there was no way the dogs could get out of the gated area. Specifically where you enter the yard it is double gated. Both of my dogs had such a good time just running circles around each other. They were exhausted 15 minutes into our reservation. The owners are so friendly and make you feel more than welcomed at their property. It is evident that they take care of their property as it is well groomed and clean! 100/10 would recommend!!
Wow! Awesome spot! Two fully fenced in fields equipped with poop bags/stations. Water on site and buckets provided if needed. My Golden Retriever was so happy running in the big fields! Description was right…awesome views and very peaceful. Also very clean! We will definitely be back!
Awesome spot. It made my heart happy to see our two Great Danes running full speed and having a grand time. Fencing is well.
Nice options for different enclosed areas. Poop bags provided. Great way to let the dogs get some sniff time!
Great spot with lots of room for dogs to run, owners are great too!
Great property. Parking close to fields. Host has a lot of dog experience and some exciting projects underway.
