55It was great! Thank you!
55Augustus just loves this sniffspot. I could leave a review every time, he loves it that much. It's big enough for him to run like wild. He doesn't care for the garden so that makes it easy. If your dog loves to fetch, this is the perfect yard to keep them running. Gus never gets bored here, but he doesn't care much for exploring. He just wants to play, and run in a big yard. The hose is easily accessible for a cold drink. I bring a large Home Depot bucket for Gus to drink, and he usually goes through the entire bucket of water to cool off. Thanks to the home owners for offering the space, Gus loves it more than words or barks could explain.
55Great area, would highly recommend
55Great spot tons of space access to water and some shaded areas to cool down would recommend
55This time I took Augustus alone. We got out early so that he didn't get too hot because he is high energy, and will burn himself out. Which he did, but he didn't get too hot. Incredibly spacious for an endless game of fetch. The water was accessible which is helpful because Gus drinks like crazy when he is exerting energy. This is one of his favorite spots and we'll need to take advantage of more visits!
55Large yard, fully fenced. Colby was a great host. Will come again.
55Nice big space to let your dogs run and play - they loved it! There were a couple things that I felt might need some attention. The gate to enter the yard is not secured and if my dogs wanted to, they could push right through it and run out. I secured it with one of their leashes, but, even just a bungee cord to hold it closed would work great. I also could not find a water bowl, or there wasn’t one that was clearly marked so I grabbed one that I found and filled it with water, the hose was easy to find. And as far as I could tell, there wasn’t a designated garbage for poop bags, so I hope I put the doggie poop bags in the right garbage. The host made a note about keeping the dogs out of the garden, which was a little bit hard as it wasn’t fenced off or anything. My dogs ran across it a few times, but didn’t trample any of the plants that were growing. I think they’re probably turned off by the black tarp that was down, so it wasn’t too hard to keep them out of it, though, I don’t know if other dogs would tear stuff up or not. Overall, a great space and we’ll be back
55Fun giant yard
55Great time, we only stayed out 30 min bc of the 101 heat, nothing we can do about that and there was shaded areas so that’s always nice!
55Great time. Thanks!

Description

Welcome to Johnson’s Garden Grove Dog Retreat! 🌿🐾 Enjoy our spacious private 1-acre fenced Sniffspot in Midvale with plenty of room for your dog to explore, play, and relax. Our property includes open grassy areas as well as a family garden space that adds to the peaceful backyard atmosphere. Please note that during Utah’s drought season, the yard may be dry, brown, and crunchy rather than lush and green. Please note: Our garden area is located within the fenced property but is not separately fenced off. Guests must supervise their dogs at all times and ensure they stay out of the garden beds and planted areas. This space is best suited for dogs that respond well to owner commands and can be redirected when needed. Property Rules & Amenities 🐾 Clean up after your pets. 🚪 Keep all gates closed. 🐕 Dogs must be supervised at all times. 🌱 Please keep dogs and people out of the garden beds and planted areas. 🦮 Please only book if your dog is comfortable being redirected and follows basic commands. Dogs that dig, jump into planted areas, or are difficult to recall may not be a good fit for this space. 🔊 Respect our neighbors and keep noise at a reasonable level. 🚭 No tobacco smoking anywhere on the property. 🅿 Please park on the street in front of the grassy area. 💧 A water spigot is available on the back of the carport, directly in front of the garden area, for filling your dog's water bowl. 🪑 Two green folding chairs are located by the water spigot for your comfort during your visit. Thank you for respecting our property and helping us keep this space enjoyable for everyone. We hope you and your pup have a great visit!

**Please contact me BEFORE booking if your dog is dog-reactive. There are some booking times which work work better than others, and I want to plan with you to care for your dog's needs.** **Due to the nationwide atypical canine infectious respiratory disease, we have reduced available amenities. Please plan to bring your own water and bowl.** **This is a pollinator-friendly property! If you are nervous about bees, please contact me prior to booking.

Give your dog more than 2,500 square feet of private indoor space to train, explore, move, and play. Quibells ‘n Bits offers a fully climate-controlled dog-training facility with rubber mat flooring throughout and room for up to six dogs. During your booking, the entire rental area is yours to use privately, and dogs may work or play off leash inside the space. Approximately half of the facility is kept open, giving you plenty of room for obedience practice, Rally skills, fitness work, training games, or simply letting your dog move and play. The other half is arranged as an enrichment gym designed to encourage exploration, confidence, body awareness, and independent choice. Guests have access to a wide range of professional canine fitness and enrichment equipment, including KLIMBs, mini KLIMBs, inflatable peanuts, a Propel Air Platform, FitBones, hoop jumps, bar jumps, platforms, and other novelty equipment. Additional items may be brought out from the shelves during your visit and returned afterward. We redesign the enrichment gym approximately once each quarter, giving returning dogs a fresh environment and new opportunities to investigate, problem-solve, climb, balance, and play. The space may be used by individual dog owners, trainers, handlers, walkers, photographers, or anyone looking for a private indoor place to work with dogs. Whether you are practicing skills, building confidence, providing physical and mental enrichment, escaping difficult weather, or simply giving your dog room to enjoy themselves, the facility can be used in the way that best fits your team. A Quibells ‘n Bits staff member will be on site and available to meet first-time guests and show them through the facility. Unit C has its own entrance and is completely separate from our other training space in Unit B.
