55This place is so magical and such a good resource for people with dogs who are still working on their recall training. My boy was running around soaking it up for 2 hours, he had so much fun.
55Great place to go if you have dogs who want to roam around and smell everything!
55What a hidden gem! A full forest for your dog to explore to themselves :-) the sound of lots of dogs in the background as the daycare is next-door, but that was honestly good for For Luna. As we are working on training to be more comfortable around other dogs, without actually having to confront them :-)
35This was my first time visiting. The fence seemed secure and nice trails to walk on. A couple things to note; if you have a reactive dog this may not be the place for you. The boarding facility backs right up to the fence in multiple locations throughout the 5 acres (which I believe goes against SniffSpots host policy of “ If you have dogs, make sure they are kept securely away from the spot.” They were secure but one of the dog runs was right up against the fence) The dogs at the facility bark the whole time and it is very loud. Along with having a reactive dog that just wants to then run the fence line and bark back. Definitely not relaxing for you or your pup.
55This is a really great spot. It’s like being in private woods because, well, you are. Very easy to get in and out. We have two pups, one of whom is very very nervous and hearing the pups from the boarding facility freaked him out at first but they settled down and so did he! Our other pup was completely unbothered and loved all the sniffs and the trails! A great spot and we will be back next year!
55Beautiful spot, very safe and fully fenced. It was so nice being able to let our dogs run free and not have to worry about running into other dogs.
55My 3 huskies had such a blast being able to run thru the woods free. Thank you for creating such a wonderful spot. Definitely worth the 1 hour drive
55Wonderful place!
55Great spot! Large area with nice trails and rock walls and plenty of variability for your dog to run around in. High fences and well maintained. We will definitely be bringing my dog here again.
55What a special place! We had some time to kill before check in and found this on the way. Our pup had to sit through our long haul road trip but was definitely so happy when he realized he could frolick freely through the woods. Thanks for the amazing spot, we would love to return here some day!

A more than adequate barrier that keeps critters out and pooches in. Dogs cannot be left unsupervised however so that they don't chew through and escape. makes sense right?

All dogs welcome in the orchard. Come enjoy the beauty and openness of a fully fenced secluded apple orchard surrounded by beautiful trees on all sides. 5 min away from downtown Blue Hill. On Route 177- very easy to find! Please bring your own water. There is no bathroom facility. There is a great rock to sit on in the trees in this orchard, but I will getting a bench soon. This fenced in area is surrounded by forest and there are critters like skunk, porcupine, and deer. I have only seen the former two at dusk- but always be careful when entering and exiting and scan the orchard before entering. Brand new sniff spot :) appreciate any feedback and reviews! Enjoy

The yard at Cooperative Dogs is a beautiful, half-acre, fenced in area among the trees. It can be a great place for your pup to run and play and sniff in a safe, private atmosphere. Be aware that it is a new and developing yard, so as of now the ground is predominantly wood chips and there are stumps, trees, and other obstacles. Please be advised that Cooperative Dogs is not liable for injury to you or your dog. The fence is 5’ high welded wire construction with a chicken wire skirt, which is secure for most dogs but we cannot guarantee that your dog will not figure out a way to escape. There are currently no bathroom facilities. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE DO NOT PLOW THE DRIVEWAY OR THE YARD THROUGHOUT THE WINTER. BOOK AND ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK.
