55It's always a great time at Heather's dog park. My Maverick and I go at least once a week! The yard is extremely clean, the perimeter around the home is extremely secure. We feel very safe and happy here!
55Super quiet neighborhood and excellent for relieving dog energy my dogs were over due and this app is great for people like me who doesn’t have a fence yet for my fur babies
55Great! Nice area to run and around a great to have a little spot to hose off
55Maisie gets so excited as soon as we turn down the dirt road heading to Heather's Sniffspot. With lots of space to run, it's still all about the lizards in the wood pile. 🦎 🐶
55Such an amazing yard with easy access!! Juno had a great time playing with the toys and sniffing every inch of the place! Nice little seating area and plenty of space for your dog to have fun!!
55Heather is so thoughtful, she sent a message checking on me after forgetting about my visit. Glad we were still able to make it. Thank you again!!
55Awesome!
55Love it!
55Macy loved this place!! This is our first time using sniffspot and we will definitely be back to Heather’s dog park!!
55Secure and clean. A nice spot to sit and plenty of room to run. We enjoyed the toys and really enjoyed the water.

Description

My backyard is a quiet spot set at the back of a private road. You’ll hear more birds and squirrels than you will cars or traffic. One side of the yard neighbors a mostly empty lot and the other a wooded area with lots of tall pine trees. A water retention ditch and another fence separates the back of the yard from the neighborhood behind mine. In addition to various dog toys and sticks, there is a mound in the middle of the yard for the septic system. My foster dogs love running up and down the little hills! The fire pit can be used on cold days and there are two spots for accessing water - one of which can also be used for a quick bath or rinse before heading home. Please help keep the space clean and tidy by picking up all dog poop and disposing in the little, black trash can just outside the fence. There are recycling and garbage bins for any other items that need to be disposed of. Thank you and I hope you enjoy your time here with your pups!

Hazards

There is a fire pit and a small woodpile that sometimes is home to a few wandering critters - usually lizards and bugs.

Hello! This is Pup Pup. I am a dog angel just doing what angels do best - helping my human! I invite you to check out this incredible play space - keep reading! Your human may be stressed and hard to manage right now, but it's okay. Just bring them here and he or she will relax, I promise! They're going to act like it's allll you...that you haven't been out enough or have enough room. That's okay. Let them believe that. Whatever it takes to get you here! There is a very comfortable place for them to sit with a beautiful, peaceful waterfront view with lots of birds and squirrels. Unless of course you're just bonkers. For you there is lots of grass, sun and shade, SOOOO much to see and sniff, and plenty of room to run. Don't worry if nature calls and you have to make a little poo. Just make sure your human sees it and scoops it up please. The bags are in a little blue bone hanging on the tree in front of the stump with the American flag. There is a water bowl next to the hose in case you get thirsty. Let the water run for a couple of minutes though, it is super hot at first! Also, please get your human to rinse the bowl out when your done because 'nother dog slobber is just gross. Which by the way is the reason this is a B.Y.O.T. spot - Bring Your Own Toy dawwg - ain't no one wantin' to share slobber 'round here. As I mentioned before, there is plenty of shade and your humans can move the chairs around if they want. Just please have them put them back when they're done. There's almost always a little breeze so they may not even need to. If the cushions are not on them they will be in a container nearby. There is also a milk crate to the right of the stump with the American flag. That, my friend, is one of the best kept secrets around! Your human can move it around the yard to sit on so very easily and it puts them at the PERFECT height for games and kisses!! You're welcome! Let's talk about critters for a minute. The wild kind that are a wonderful part of our world. There are an incredible assortment of birds and lizards which should be of no concern, but there is always a possibility of snakes which might make your human a little uneasy and make you lose your marbles. Just be careful. My human spends a LOT of time in the yard had has only ever seen one harmless little black racer. Finally, I was a little feller so the fence would have been more than adequate for me, but for you bigger feisty dogs we might need to chat about this. It is about 4 ft tall most places but there are a couple of spots where dirt and stuff has accumulated over the years and it may be a little shorter. Annnnd...there are chickens. Yup. The neighbor has chickens and they are frequently struttin' their delicious feathery little selves around. Depending on your size and temperament this may not be an issue but Is definitely worth mentioning. Also, the creek front side of the yard is not fenced. There are natural barriers but you serious water loving dogs or escape artists could get out there with enough determination. Don't panic if you get yourself out there - it is never more than about 2-3 ft deep. The mud is relatively firm in the grassy area closest to the yard. It does get super squishy beyond that though. I think once you step paw out there you'll change your mind but again, I thought it was worth mentioning. Also, it is a tidal creek. If your visit is at low tide there won't be a whole lot of water in the creek. Well, that oughta do it. I hope you get a chance to visit and enjoy this amazing little piece of heaven on Earth! Oh yeah, one last thing. You can see a picture of me if you scroll through all the pictures. I sure was a handsome little devil! *Save up to 25% with a membership*
