55Huge property! I live in SW Portland and all of our dog parks are smaller than this property so it was a real treat for my doggy and me. It has some very boggy and muddy patches during rainy season so bring your mud/rain boots if you want to stroll the entire area. There are some grassy drier spots under big trees if you want to bring a camping chair and not walk in the muddy spots. There is a very sweet doggie there that your dog can play with (or not). She and my dog played chase and raced for a chuck-it ball almost the whole hour. There are 2 horses who are VERY accustomed to dogs. I loved petting them. My dog barked at them a bit and they didn't care. The owners will put them in the barn if you don't want them around, but they added a lot to the rural experience for me. Very personable family to greet you your first time. I felt very welcome!Elizabeth W.

55Zoe and Zander had their first adventure here Rick and family’s farm today and they were euphoric ! Plenty of room to run, climb on logged and become familiar with two very dog tolerant mellow horses. Bella the family dog came out for a bit to play and Zoey, their daughter enjoyed playing ( we all did safe distancing) with my pups as well. Rick was a welcoming host and we will be back again! Highly recommend! It is muddy in spots due to the wet weather( might want your rain boots or older tennis shoes but large grassy areas as well. Rick even let us use their hose to hose off the dogs paws before load up. My dogs left there exhausted and happy. Will take pics next time! Angela J.

55Miles and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience. In addition to great hosts, friendly horses and a playful resident dog, the property fits the description of what I know Miles and all dogs for that matter would consider heaven on earth.Christine B.

55This is an amazing spot to let you dogs run around! Both of my high energy dogs were exhausted after an hour here. There is such a range of smells and terrain for them to explore, with horses, other dogs, grass, trees, and a pond. I would recommend this spot to anyone. Maddie T.

55This property is doggie Disneyland! We brought our 2 aussie mixes here and they had an absolute blast! Rick and his daughter, Zoe, were so friendly and welcoming when we arrived and showed us around the property (there’s plenty of room to maintain at least 6ft of space at all times) Our pups sprinted endlessly with their dog, Bella, played in a pond, and even got to meet one of their horses, Max. As some of the other reviews have mentioned, there are some muddy spots (the majority was perfectly dry) so be sure to wear appropriate shoes. We’ll definitely be back!Lisa B.

55Great hosts and property. Wore my dog out from running. Might bring lawn chairs to sit on in the shade while your baby explores. Great for the dog and people now that you have to social distance. Just a lovely alternative to keep everyone happy and outdoors.Nadine G.

55Rick and family were very gracious in hosting my dog Padme and I. Zoey was particularly gracious and fun, remaining with us during our stay. With 4 acres there’s plenty of room to run and play. My dog ran and played for an hour with Zoey’s dog and they had a great time together. Michael B.

55What great fun! Rick and Lynn were welcoming and their daughter Zoe was really charming. Their dog Bella played chase with our dog for almost the entire time we were there, running non-stop! Our other dog was off by himself as he tends to do, exploring the many sniff and noodle around options. It's a perfect ramble place for dogs! We'll be back!Debra M.

555/8/2020: Visited "Run Sniff Run" today. Wonderful experience. Very Friendly owners, and property is perfect for free running pets.

55A fully fenced, large space with lots of interesting sniffs with large trees that will provide great shade on hot days, logs and a small pond. Hosts were very kind and accommodating of our dog’s needs and kept horses and their dog out of the area. Also kind enough to let us know that the space was a little muddy (lots of rain, days prior to visit) so that we could come prepared Stephanie D.

55What an amazing spot! Rick and his family were so welcoming to my dog and I. Rick showed me around and gave me a lay of the land. My dog had a wonderful time running on the acreage and really enjoyed playing with their dog. He is usually pretty timid but they had a great time together! Will be coming back many times over!!!

55The hosts came out to greet us, very friendly and showed us around a little before we went out on their 4 acre land. We had two friends meet up with us with their golden so our dogs could run together. The host's dog, Bella, warmly welcomed our dogs to her huge yard that she's so happy to share with our dogs - Lets go Play! So off they went running.
Lucy enjoys new things and she was very curious of horses. It rained for a week before our visit, so everything was pretty muddy. Our dogs loved it though. They rolled in manure and ran in the mud, swam in the pond, sniffed through all the tall grass, climbed on the wood laying around, played soccer with Bella... all the fun adventures.
Rick was very nice company. He offered and helped hose our muddy dogs off before getting in the car. We told him we would definitely be back. We do not care if we got a dirty dog. Lucy was SO HAPPY! She has been sleeping all day after her bath.Carrie B.

55I booked this spot because of it's ratings - but was blown away by how uniquely awesome this beautiful farm was! This Sniffspot is located on a lovely piece of land with a peak-a-boo view of Mt.Hood and the field is fully fenced, flat, and accessible. Our dog had such a great time, and so did we. The surrounding area is decorated with the most beautiful art, which added to our pleasure during our time there. This will be our new regular spot! Chris B.

FAQ about our Dayton dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.

If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
