55Amazing place for your pup!
55Thank you for making your beautiful field available!
55Great open play space! Secure, water provided, and clean porta-potty for the humans!
55This spot was amazing! Very quiet and beautiful scenery. Our pup loved running around. The toys and water bowl were nice to have too as well as lots of places to sit and relax. We’ll definitely be back!
55Lovely field and amenities and clear instructions Frankie had many zooms
55We loved your farm! Gorgeous views, perfect size for my huskies, outhouse came in handy & huge water jug. Thank you!
55Such a beautiful, clean and fun space! My dogs had an absolute blast running around, exploring and the agility was fun to engage them in as well! We will most definitely be back! Thank you for opening up your beautiful space for us to enjoy!
55This is my favorite Sniffspot. Kris has put so much work into it and is an amazing host. I cannot wait to come back with our dog friends again soon!
55Dexter had such a great time running and sniffing in this huge spot. He barked a little at the horses and then went back to playing and having a blast! The porter potty was a huge bonus. Thank you for allowing us to use your space.
55This is our absolute favorite SniffSpot! We go so often, we actually feel like it’s part of our home! It’s perfectly set up for dogs - the fencing is secure, the scenery is gorgeous, and the hosts are kind and responsive. We have two reactive and strong dogs - use of this land for them to roam and run and play safely is the absolute difference in the quality of their lives. We are sincerely grateful!

Description

NEW: Free U-Pick Blackberries! Shade Gazebo! Kiddie Pool! Working farm and private duck lake on Sauvie Island. Perfect spot for dog parties, work off leash, practice recall, minimum distractions.

Cleanliness

99% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Cocklebur seeds have shown up in the grass by the wetland. Not advised for long hair dogs. This is a farm, so livestock and livestock “byproducts” are inevitable. Also, farms in winter can be wet and muddy. As well, the island is a migratory bird wildlife refuge, so “byproducts” from sand hill cranes, herons, geese, ducks, etc are also inevitable. No ticks have been found here to date. Additionally, reactive and working dogs may not be able to share fence line with livestock, and unless you request otherwise, livestock may be adjacent. Please note, this is a working farm community as well as wildlife refuge. There is a muddy wetland, there may be farm equipment, heavy trucks on rural highway, neighbors dogs, livestock, deer and other wildlife- evaluate your dog’s bandwidth to create the best experience.

Looking forward to sharing space with other doggos, and collecting ideas for improving the experience for everyone-please note this is a rural environment and hazards include noises, livestock, farm equipment, deer and other wildlife.
