Hi I'm Jan and am battling non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and this allows me to pay for my dog food and necessities. I have 3 rescues , Kodi a lab/shepherd mix, Ty is a potcake (island dog from the Bahamas, basically boxer mix), and Henry a shih tzu we adopted when my cousin died a few years ago. Due to the cancer you'll probably never see or hear me or my pups. I'm weak but we really enjoy playing with the dogs in our big yard. Kodi loves chasing frisbees in the corral. Ty loves stealing kodis frisbees. Henry loves barking at both of them. I'm very happy to share our space and toys with other people and their pets. I've also set up a mini obstacle course in front of the privacy fence, will add to it as I can. Hope to make your visit an enjoyable one ! Welcome All 🤗🐕‍🦺🐕🐶🐾

Although it is fenced, it is not possible to know every dog’s individual behavior. The tornado siren goes off every first Saturday of the month at 1:00. No joy. I am often available if needed for questions or help. We welcome suggestions! Enjoy! Winter: This Sniffspot will be open all winter. ***The snow isn’t always plowed immediately. We do our best.

The Confidence Course

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Welcome to Our Hidden Gem Next to the B2B Trail! Our private, fully fenced dog park is the perfect place for your pup to run free, explore, and just be a dog. Conveniently located right off the B2B trail and across the street from Timber Town, this spot offers a unique mix of nature, enrichment, and fun. Upon arrival, you’ll find a designated parking spot and a peaceful trail that winds around the back of the property to the park entrance. Along the way, you’ll pass our duck enclosure and pond—feel free to stop and say hi! If you'd like to feed the ducks, they love shredded lettuce or diced cucumbers (please, no bread). At the end of the trail, you’ll find a double-gated entry with a separate area for leashing and unleashing your dog safely. Inside, your pup will have the freedom to explore about a quarter-acre of fenced-in space, featuring fun enrichment structures like a dog bridge and stacked hay bales for climbing, sniffing, and playing. This space is ideal for dogs who prefer a quiet environment without the stress of other dogs nearby. While our fence is 4 feet high and the area is smaller than some, it’s a great spot for dogs who just need a safe, fun place to burn off energy and enjoy nature. You're welcome to bring a friend and their dog too—just add them as an extra when you book. We can’t wait for you and your dog(s) to experience a relaxing and joyful visit. See you soon!
