55Such a wonderful space - and ball pit and toys were a delight. My foster puppy loved it!
55This was our first time using Sniffspot and it was great! We have two pups who don’t love walking in the city so this gave them an opportunity to run around leash free in a quiet area. The yard was clean, came with a free treat sample, enrichment activities, toys, and seating for us humans. The neighborhood was quiet and there was plenty of easy street parking. We definitely plan on coming back again soon!
55Easy to find sniffspot with ample parking space out front! Had water bowls for the dogs, as well as plenty of dogs and space to run around. Would go back again!
55Great to let my foster dog run around!
55Always so much fun & perfect for my reactive dog!
55Pup had a great time running around and the free sample of treats was really nice!
55Fun times as always! Thanks for your awesome sniff spot!
55Great space. High fences and very secure and secluded for reactive dogs.
55The sniff spot is perfect! A good size for plenty of exploring. My dog loved the ball pit and treats. the bug spray is a nice touch for the humans :)
55A great space that feels super private!

Scratch Pad$3

If you struggle with trimming your dog’s nails, this is the great alternative to going through that traumatic experience! You train your dogs to scratch their paws on the pad with treats, start by asking for 'paw'- and just after a short time of training he will pick it up easy peasy! After maybe 10 scratches his nails are nice and filed. Scrach board is for rent only please leave it on the property when you're done with your visit so other sniffspotters can train, too!

Hi! My husband & I have two Alaskan Malamutes Denali & Lincoln, 2 cats and sometimes foster with PAWS! Tag us on Instagram during your stay! @malamutesinmanayunk We lived on Main St Manayunk for a few years prior to moving here. Dog parks made Lincoln reactive to other dogs and having a reactive dog in the city was so hard, we couldn't even walk out of our front door without an off leash dog bombarding us. When we were looking to move this yard was the deal breaker. It's amazing to finally see a reactive dog relax and that's what this yard did for us, we'd love to share that with the rest of the community!

Fort Washington Fully Fenced Woodland Yard

About: Explore our heavily wooded, fenced yard which backs up to township wooded land. Lots to sniff as we regularly experience visits from all sorts of wildlife (deer, fox, bunnies, chipmunks, birds, squirrels, etc). We have two very large GSDs of our own who love chasing all the woodland creatures and frequently bring their toys outside so it wouldn't be surprising if your dog uncovers a ball or toy buried out there. New Deck Closed: For winter, deck is unavailable as the furniture and deck need to be cleaned for spring. Potential for deck amenities for pet parents available this summer. It's perfect for launching a ball off of - really tires our dogs out. Please note that some photos showcase an old deck. Updated photos will come soon. Warning: To keep the visit pleasant, please keep yourself and the pup(s) away from the glass door on the deck. As mentioned we have two large GSDs and they are protective of the house as is in their nature. Suggestions: Our yard is great for: - scent work as there are some many places to hide a scent. - tiring out your dog with a tougher game of fetch as there's a lot of foliage to throw a ball into to have them really use their noses - watching wildlife such as deer, birds, fox, etc. Warning: Backyard is positioned on a hill which may not be accessible if dog/humans have any mobility issues. You can avoid the hill by following the trail against the fence until it dead ends where you can walk through the clearing. In times of heavy rain, the space will get muddy. Clean towels can be provided - see extras.
