55Teresa’s property was beautiful our 4 Sheps really enjoyed their time there! They have a backyard of their own but of course not anywhere near this size so they really got to run free and explore! Entrance/exit to the property was simple & of course we appreciated the amenities available to the dogs (pool, toys, etc) we look forward to our next visit! Katie F.

55Yard is maintained very well, the host provides plenty of toys, chairs to rest on & plenty of water for our pups to drink & even a dog pool for them! The neighbors have dogs that do bark at us but nothing crazy as long as your dogs have a decent recall 😊Alondra R.

55My new favorite Sniffspot! The spot was easy to find and totally worth the drive from San Antonio. The space was wide open and secure, there was more than enough room for both dogs to run and play fetch. My pups loved the pond, the curious horses and all the toys to play with. The host kindly provided chairs, wet wipes, towels and lots of toys. Thank you for hosting us, we hope to be back soon!Ilona B.

55Beautiful spot with clean cut grass nicely manicured with a cute lil pond and helpful amenities like chairs and towels, a doggy pool, toys and more. So comfortable. The land is flat and easy to walk, so no worries about tripping on bumps or twigs. Teresa is very communicative and hospitable and makes sure you're comfortable. Neighbors have horses which are super cool. Our dog didn't quite know what to make of them, hehe. Top spot!Maureen D.

55Absolutely loved this spot. Took us about an hour to get there from SA but our doggies loved the open space. Our reactive dog did hear a dog barking from inside the house but it was easy to redirect him with all the toys and pool left outside! Our babies were able to jump in the pond and see some horses. 10/10 recommend! Aileen R.

55What a great yard for dogs to run. My GSP was off and running as soon as I popped the hatch open. The yard is beautiful and clean. Teresa had chairs, a picnic table, and a pool for the dogs. My older girl did not partake in the pool, but my GSP was in and out of it. The neighbors horses and dogs were out and were not an issue.
It is about a 50 minute drive and we'll worth it. I'll be going back!Joy R.

55Beautiful, clean, fully fenced 5 acres for my babies to run and play. They had such a good time. All the neighbors had dogs out, so after my dogs barked at all of them, they continued playing with the pool and toys. This is easily now one of our favorite spots. Samantha T.

55Wow, what a great spot! Teresa’s place has everything you could possibly need. Toys, chairs, water, and much needed towels after our mini schnoodle, Beaux, decided to dig a hole. Easy access from the road, with neighboring farms. Well maintained and fully fenced! No gaps. There were a couple neighboring barking dogs along the fence but we tried to steer our dog away from there (it was fine). Our small dog is working on his reactivity, so having lots of open space and toys to play with was much needed. Will come back! Jennifer S.

FAQ about our La Vernia dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
