45The owner greeted me upon arrival and showed me where trail entrance was. This is a large property of mostly fields and includes a horse paddock. My dog enjoyed the walk with lots of sniffing and liked seeing the horses.
45Overall was a great time. My dog was able to expend his energy and smell around. A little bit pricier than other spaces but still great.
55Great space - Barbara Anne is very hospitable.
55Amazing place to take the dogs out for a run. Multiple fields to choose from.
25Barbara herself was great. She came out and met the dogs and I and walked us into the "trail." This ended up being a random open field. None of it was actually fenced off. The pond is completely dried out. We ran into other people in the field with off leash dogs - the whole point in this for us is to be away from other dogs and the freedom of our own temporary space so this was very disappointing.
55Had a wonderful time taking Clara, my 9 month old Chesapeake Retriever and Luke, my 4 year old Miniature Poodle for off leash exercise. This was the first time Clara was allowed to run without a leash, and she had a blast. I plan to take her on a regular basis, as part of her training. I am so excited, as she will be ready to go backcountry ski touring with me in Muskoka, this winter, and mountain biking in the spring.
55What a beautiful trail!! We took our 4 dogs for a morning at Barbara Ann’s sniff spot and we loved the amazing views and long trails. The dogs were in their glory jumping on and off the trail into the long grass. We’ll definitely be back!!
45Our visit at Barbara’s sniff spot was so much fun! The trail goes throughout two big fields, and right by a pond the dogs can swim in. Just follow path and it loops back to the beginning. Barbara came out to greet us and show us the entrance. Hank and I will definitely be back to enjoy soon!
55Hunter and I loved our walk The trail was clear the farm /forest views were beautiful and the pond is a great touch for a hot day! Also liked that we had a meet & great on arrival and the opportunity to hose off at the end of our hike . We’ll come again !!
55Barbara Ann’s sniff spot is lovely. John met me to show me the trail, which was about 3.5km and very easy to follow. The trail does not have a lot of tree cover, so it gets warm. Also worth noting that the parking area is shared with a vet clinic; they have poop bags and a garbage can, which is very convenient. On the other hand, if you have a dog-reactive dog you should be aware that there’s a chance you’ll see other animals (you can also see horses from the parking lot). My dogs enjoyed their romp and if this spot was closer to me I’d probably visit regularly.

    Host replied: Paige, my apologies for other dogs on the trail, I would appreciate being able to troubleshoot to avoid this— can you share with me the type of dogs? Yes the “pond” does dry up at the end of the summer I am sorry I neglected to tell you this, also that the hose is there should anyone need to be cleaned off.

We do our best to ensure 100% security with weekly perimeter checks, however, Mother Nature sometimes has other plans. PLEASE REPORT ANY FALLEN TREES on the fencing immediately to Cathy (705) 506-0372 *Sniffspot is a US company and prices are in US dollars. *Please let us know how many cars to be expecting at your rental time by messaging us through the Sniffspot website. *No alcohol or drug use is permitted on the property. Looking for a peaceful place to play and explore with your pup on your own? Traveling to our area from out of town? Want to get a few of your friends, and your dog’s pals together in a private setting without running into others? Do you own a dog business and need a safe place to walk or train your dog clients? SafeK9’s fully fenced forested private park & trail is located on over 40 acres of land nestled between the two beautiful Georgian Bayside towns of Midland and Penetanguishene. Here your dog will get all the intriguing sniffs they desire! Regularly hiked by our SafeK9 daycare clientele, our private dog park & trail will keep your dog’s nose and mind busy. After all, mental stimulation is just as important as exercise for a happy and healthy dog! Hot day? Dog need a dip? They can splish, splash and meet the frogs in one of the 2 ponds located trailside. We believe every dog deserves their time to run and frolic without the restriction of a leash. We are blessed to be able to provide that opportunity to you and your dog to bond without the stress of running into other pooches and people. *Please drive slowly past the house on your drive into our Sniffspot. *Please don’t allow your dog(s) to run towards the back area of the house from the parking lot. Dog daycare is in session. *Please close the big sliding gate when arriving and leaving. *NO SMOKING of any kind is permitted ON THE PROPERTY *Please “stick’n flick” your dog’s poop off the main trails.

(The entire trail loop takes 45-60 mins depending on your walking pace). *Please be respectful and take any personal trash/garbage/recycling with you when you leave. *Don’t forget a towel!! Happy sniffin'!
