Hazards

HOST NOTE

⚠️ Seasonal Advisory: 🍄‍🟫 Mushrooms have made their appearances here! We do our best to remove them quickly and also appreciate if guests let us know of any sightings. A tree fell in the yard so there is some excess shrubbery in parts of the lawn near the felled tree -Front porch has rocking chairs, ammenities, and the 'extras' for guests when purchased. If your dogs tend to chew on furniture or rugs please keep an eye on them while on the porch because there are some loose decorations n such - We have chickens fenced away but are visible. - Lastly, we have an active mole, so there will be dirt mounds (we collect for soil) that may look like there's a horse on property... We promise, there isn't lol Thank you!

Welcome to my whimsical and woodsy play place in the city. The Shire is a large, happy go lucky yard that reflects seasonal changes with its varying colors and foliage.🌼🪻 Always spacious enough for fetching and endless zumiez, it also offers hide-aways, bushes and trees for the adventurous, sniffy pups to explore. Dogs in-training will enjoy the safety of full fencing as they learn how to both play independently and respond to our typical surroundings of occasional winged🦜, wheeled🛞 and pawfoot🐾 traffic. This spot is ever in-training with growth and improvements being worked on every season. I welcome feedback to help make every visit a most FUN-furred experience for all our dogs and their fun-loving families!

Hi yall, We hope you’ll enjoy our back yard as much as our dogs do. My wife and I run and manage our spot. Our area here is in a small neighborhood with little to no traffic. You can access the entrance through the left side of the house. Just push the gate and it should open easily. As for parking there is a guest area right in front of the house but the drive way can be used to park if there is no parking available. There will be a smaller little fence that can be closed but you can leave it open as well. We will provide some toys and of course balls so you can play with your dogs free of charge. We additionally have snacks and water if needed. There are poop bags as well. You can find these items on the deck and please feel free to sit down and enjoy a nice seat. Our back yard will have trees with plenty of shade and a large area for the dogs to run around. Some areas of the yard are muddy but it is mostly grassy. If you head down to the property you will find a stream with a sandy beach and an old bench. The stream is only accessible through our property but not fully fenced off due to the running water. But it is a secluded area where your dogs will not be able to run off.

XL backyard with lots of room to romp and some things to climb on (logs, stumps). Yard is entirely fenced, but access gate is hog fence and may allow for very small dogs to slip through. Also some stacked firewood along a 4.5ft fence means some dogs could climb the firewood and jump out. Yard backs to an elementary school and park, so at times there is recess near the back fence (busy), or just generally people at the park. Please do not use the dog kennel/enclosure area.

Green Acres Homestead 1 Acre Sniffspot

Fully Fenced
1 acre

Full polished version with #11 included: Welcome to Green Acres Homestead! Discover acres of adventure on our fully fenced pasture, complete with a seasonal creek and a peaceful pond — perfect for dogs to run, splash, and explore. Nestled on a charming farm beside Green Acres K9 Resort (a dog boarding and daycare facility), our play space offers a secure and refreshing retreat for your pups, whether they're visiting for playtime or boarding nearby. Getting here: Please watch for our Sniffspot signs and follow them carefully to the designated play area. You're encouraged to park all the way at the end of the driveway, in front of the fence. Visitor limit: We cap each visit at 4 dogs and 2 adults unless arranged with us ahead of time. This space is meant for you and your own dogs to enjoy — not for dog gatherings, parties, or commercial dog handlers bringing client dogs. Reality check: Most visitors already know what to expect and love bringing their dogs here — but for anyone less familiar with farm life, we want to be upfront about the environment you'll experience. It's very likely you may: Hear a dog barking from the boarding facility See a farmer working Share a fence line with livestock (yes, you can say hello!) Find mud in the wet season, and no creek in the dry season See algae in the pond when the water isn't flowing, and weeds in the field Notice some weeds or pokey plants — we mow to keep the main field clear of blackberries and weeds, but can't guarantee a weed-free space Be in true nature — the creek and pond are spring-fed, but there's always a chance of picking something up outdoors Watch your dog dig and carry sticks and rocks — just be aware there may be holes, sticks, or rocks around Use the dock at your own risk — it holds my family with no problem, but makes no promises for anyone else; you're welcome to use it with your own judgment Encounter a pond with gradual sloping sides over half its edge, but steeper drop-offs in some sections Post a photo of your dog's vaccination records to the chat before your first visit — this only needs to be done once (until they expire). Keeping our space healthy is critical to us; illnesses like Parvo can be extremely dangerous to dogs and can linger in the soil for as long as several years which is a very long time once introduced. We never want to discourage anyone from enjoying this place the way we do — we just want your expectations to match reality. We look forward to seeing you here soon!

Montana's 5 Acres in Camas

Fully Fenced
5 acres

Welcome! We have two gates entering the property! Please do your best to use the western entrance (the gate on the RIGHT) while turning off Brunner Road and facing the property. The gate on the left is automatic, and if I notice your arrival, I will open the gate for you within minutes, otherwise, please safely drive to the correct gate. There are three fields! The first field is the property you will enter from the busy main road. This is field one. I may or may not have “blocks” on this field for gardening or exploration with friends and family, so if your dogs are unbothered by people (me gardening), please message me and I will open the space for you to reserve your time if you can safely manage your pups in field one (please read all descriptions), or if you would like to utilize the other fields and don’t mind saying hello in passing while you enter field two (to field three, etc.) Please read ALL descriptions (including photos) before entering the property. Failure to do so will result in being blocked, as this is to keep you, your dogs, and my dogs safe :)! I know it’s a lot, but once you read everything, the 100’s of previous guests have proved that there will be zero issues, and I am here to help! Message me any and all questions :)! Return the toys and balls to where you found them, to the best of your ability. 5 acres is a lot of ground to cover, so please do your best to pick up your dog poop and return the balls. This is not always possible with such a large space, but after five or six visits I will certainly notice if the turds pile up and the balls all go missing- just do your best and don’t worry if you lose a few balls, just let me know! Please return what you use as you find it :)! Do not knock on my doors unless it is an emergency (and please do so if there is an emergency). My personal cell is available for emergencies only, and again, please ask if it is an emergency. If THERE IS an emergency, I will assist to the best of my ability. I offer a pet first aid kit (bleed stop, staple gun, antimicrobrial wound spray, etc) with phone numbers and addresses on hand of local emergency vets (you won’t need these, but I have them just incase!) because we live by a busy road (read all descriptions), and there are coyotes in the early mornings and late evenings every so often. I spend early mornings and evenings outside most everyday, and can hear yelling (from past Sniffspot users) to know when something is not going right during your visit. I will alert you to coyote activity, and intervene if I hear yelling lol (it’s happened a couple of times, please read reviews). It’s a great spot, and all of this information is to help you make the best first experience for you and your pup(s), for hopefully many more fun adventures together on the property. Thank you! We have 3 separate fields. Black berry bushes are very present in all fields and not sprayed, so feel free to snack when they are out! FIELD 1: Closest to busy road, least suitable for free-roam incase of delivery or neighbor utilizing third gate on our easement. I consider this field “the buffer zone”. Best suited for dogs with proper recall skills, best to have pups leashed until you enter field 2 otherwise. Feel free to roam on-leash for extra smells! ORANGE/PINK flags indicate boundaries as a buffer to prevent trespassing onto neighboring property back into the woods. There are times when I have to leave or enter the property (field one), or deliveries may be made, so it’s always best to have dogs leashed in field one. I always give a heads up if we will be entering or exiting the property during your visit. Water access is in field 1 by the house, and please turn off water when finished refreshing for yourself. Our dogs will be heard from this field (from inside of the house). You will find the 2nd gate entrance here, into field 2. Look for the black garbage can, as well as blue kiddy pool to navigate to field 2 (by the logs 🪵). FIELD 2: the best field! Our backyard. It is completely fenced in, private, and safe for dogs 15lbs and up- smaller dogs such as our 9lb dog need to wear a device (to recall) or a large harness of sorts because fencing is large enough for them to escape through. The fencing is approximately 3’ high, 3”x4” holes, typical cattle fencing. Horses can be seen from this field on neighbor’s property at times, along with their dog, Cooper, who will come right up to the fence line. He is friendly and sweet, but be aware incase yours is reactive. This field is sloped, which is excellent for exercise! There are trees blocking our house and windows for privacy (great because of our noisy dogs) and has easy gate access, as well as accessible water. There is a nice view of Mt. Hood on the log benches, with a couple of log benches scattered around the property, a few in the lower portion of the field 3 under the trees. I try my best to maintain and refresh a kiddy pool and the water bowl, but please help yourself. Field 3: I strongly recommend against use of field 3 during foggy periods for safety of your pets. Should a dog without proper recall training decide to wander off in field 3, you will have a LOT of ground to cover without much sight distance (on foggy days). Field 3 continued: This is an excellent field for dogs with solid recall skills. Through the first two fields, is field 3, a property long and flat, one which openly borders our neighbor’s property. You must go through the gate at the bottom of field 2 to enter this field. While this field is technically entirely fenced, the fencing on the adjacent property has one fault where a tree fell down on it. The entire field is not all ours, so we have marked boundaries using orange/pink flags, and “Do not enter” signs. Please reference photos for what these orange boundary flags look like. The orange flags indicate hazards along fence line, entrance to bee hives (marked by “Do Not Enter” signs, and boundaries between properties. Close each gate behind you. Field three is wooded, so please note that dogs with excellent recall skills may forget them with all of the scents ruminating from this area. This wooded area wraps up and around to field one if you find you have lost your pup, but is on someone else’s property. If I hear you yelling for your pup, I’ll probably come ask if you need help. Field three borders our neighbors property and you will be technically trespassing should you pass the boundary flags. Cautions: A coyote frequents this lower field (field 3) on a semi-regular basis, typically in the early mornings and late evenings, so large dogs with proper recall training are advised only. I strongly recommend against use of this field during foggy periods for safety of your pets. Should a dog without proper recall training decide to wander off, it will not be fun trying to find them. This field (field 3) is a split property (2 parcels), half ours, half the neighbor’s. Please be mindful of maintaining general boundaries (see photos of orange/pink flags designating boundary lines). It’s quite rugged, so be there could be wild animal scat, mole holes, and uneven grass. There is a digging area here too. I have seen coyotes, skunks, deer, owls, a feral cat, and bunnies in this field. Horses and neighbor dog cooper are sometimes visible. Don’t be intimidated, unless your dog has poor recall skills. Please contact me with any questions!

Private Dog Park by the Creek

Partially Fenced
1 acre

Private Dog Park on 1+ Acres near Mt. Scott Creek: Just 5 minutes from Clackamas Town Center, our one-acre enclosed field offers open space, rolling hills, and the serene Mt. Scott Creek meanders through the property. The creek flows year-round—its levels dip in summer—and there are several spots where pups can wade and cool off on warm days. Please note: the creek is not fenced at both ends. Our field is pesticide-free and treated with organic diatomaceous earth in early spring and late fall to sanitize and keep it free of pests. The creekside can be muddy during winter, but most of the property—especially the upper fields—remains dry year-round. Sniffin’ Hours: Monday to Sunday Spring & Summer: 8 AM – 8:30 PM Autumn & Winter: 8 AM – 7 PM During your visit, our two 5-year-old Doberman-Mastiff mixes will remain indoors so you and your pup can explore freely. Thanks for Sniffin’ at our Spot! —Daniel & Family

The gate on the left is automatic, and if I notice your arrival, I will open the gate for you within minutes, otherwise, please safely drive to the correct gate. There are three fields! The first field is the property you will enter from the busy main road. This is field one. I may or may not have “blocks” on this field for gardening or exploration with friends and family, so if your dogs are unbothered by people (me gardening), please message me and I will open the space for you to reserve your time if you can safely manage your pups in field one (please read all descriptions), or if you would like to utilize the other fields and don’t mind saying hello in passing while you enter field two (to field three, etc.) Please read ALL descriptions (including photos) before entering the property. Failure to do so will result in being blocked, as this is to keep you, your dogs, and my dogs safe :)! I know it’s a lot, but once you read everything, the 100’s of previous guests have proved that there will be zero issues, and I am here to help! Message me any and all questions :)! Return the toys and balls to where you found them, to the best of your ability. 5 acres is a lot of ground to cover, so please do your best to pick up your dog poop and return the balls. This is not always possible with such a large space, but after five or six visits I will certainly notice if the turds pile up and the balls all go missing- just do your best and don’t worry if you lose a few balls, just let me know! Please return what you use as you find it :)! Do not knock on my doors unless it is an emergency (and please do so if there is an emergency). My personal cell is available for emergencies only, and again, please ask if it is an emergency. If THERE IS an emergency, I will assist to the best of my ability. I offer a pet first aid kit (bleed stop, staple gun, antimicrobrial wound spray, etc) with phone numbers and addresses on hand of local emergency vets (you won’t need these, but I have them just incase!) because we live by a busy road (read all descriptions), and there are coyotes in the early mornings and late evenings every so often. I spend early mornings and evenings outside most everyday, and can hear yelling (from past Sniffspot users) to know when something is not going right during your visit. I will alert you to coyote activity, and intervene if I hear yelling lol (it’s happened a couple of times, please read reviews). It’s a great spot, and all of this information is to help you make the best first experience for you and your pup(s), for hopefully many more fun adventures together on the property. Thank you! We have 3 separate fields. Black berry bushes are very present in all fields and not sprayed, so feel free to snack when they are out! FIELD 1: Closest to busy road, least suitable for free-roam incase of delivery or neighbor utilizing third gate on our easement. I consider this field “the buffer zone”. Best suited for dogs with proper recall skills, best to have pups leashed until you enter field 2 otherwise. Feel free to roam on-leash for extra smells! ORANGE/PINK flags indicate boundaries as a buffer to prevent trespassing onto neighboring property back into the woods. There are times when I have to leave or enter the property (field one), or deliveries may be made, so it’s always best to have dogs leashed in field one. I always give a heads up if we will be entering or exiting the property during your visit. Water access is in field 1 by the house, and please turn off water when finished refreshing for yourself. Our dogs will be heard from this field (from inside of the house). You will find the 2nd gate entrance here, into field 2. Look for the black garbage can, as well as blue kiddy pool to navigate to field 2 (by the logs 🪵). FIELD 2: the best field! Our backyard. It is completely fenced in, private, and safe for dogs 15lbs and up- smaller dogs such as our 9lb dog need to wear a device (to recall) or a large harness of sorts because fencing is large enough for them to escape through. The fencing is approximately 3’ high, 3”x4” holes, typical cattle fencing. Horses can be seen from this field on neighbor’s property at times, along with their dog, Cooper, who will come right up to the fence line. He is friendly and sweet, but be aware incase yours is reactive. This field is sloped, which is excellent for exercise! There are trees blocking our house and windows for privacy (great because of our noisy dogs) and has easy gate access, as well as accessible water. There is a nice view of Mt. Hood on the log benches, with a couple of log benches scattered around the property, a few in the lower portion of the field 3 under the trees. I try my best to maintain and refresh a kiddy pool and the water bowl, but please help yourself. Field 3: I strongly recommend against use of field 3 during foggy periods for safety of your pets. Should a dog without proper recall training decide to wander off in field 3, you will have a LOT of ground to cover without much sight distance (on foggy days). Field 3 continued: This is an excellent field for dogs with solid recall skills. Through the first two fields, is field 3, a property long and flat, one which openly borders our neighbor’s property. You must go through the gate at the bottom of field 2 to enter this field. While this field is technically entirely fenced, the fencing on the adjacent property has one fault where a tree fell down on it. The entire field is not all ours, so we have marked boundaries using orange/pink flags, and “Do not enter” signs. Please reference photos for what these orange boundary flags look like. The orange flags indicate hazards along fence line, entrance to bee hives (marked by “Do Not Enter” signs, and boundaries between properties. Close each gate behind you. Field three is wooded, so please note that dogs with excellent recall skills may forget them with all of the scents ruminating from this area. This wooded area wraps up and around to field one if you find you have lost your pup, but is on someone else’s property. If I hear you yelling for your pup, I’ll probably come ask if you need help. Field three borders our neighbors property and you will be technically trespassing should you pass the boundary flags. Cautions: A coyote frequents this lower field (field 3) on a semi-regular basis, typically in the early mornings and late evenings, so large dogs with proper recall training are advised only. I strongly recommend against use of this field during foggy periods for safety of your pets. Should a dog without proper recall training decide to wander off, it will not be fun trying to find them. This field (field 3) is a split property (2 parcels), half ours, half the neighbor’s. Please be mindful of maintaining general boundaries (see photos of orange/pink flags designating boundary lines). It’s quite rugged, so be there could be wild animal scat, mole holes, and uneven grass. There is a digging area here too. I have seen coyotes, skunks, deer, owls, a feral cat, and bunnies in this field. Horses and neighbor dog cooper are sometimes visible. Don’t be intimidated, unless your dog has poor recall skills. Please contact me with any questions!

Private Dog Park by the Creek

Partially Fenced
1 acre

Private Dog Park on 1+ Acres near Mt. Scott Creek: Just 5 minutes from Clackamas Town Center, our one-acre enclosed field offers open space, rolling hills, and the serene Mt. Scott Creek meanders through the property. The creek flows year-round—its levels dip in summer—and there are several spots where pups can wade and cool off on warm days. Please note: the creek is not fenced at both ends. Our field is pesticide-free and treated with organic diatomaceous earth in early spring and late fall to sanitize and keep it free of pests. The creekside can be muddy during winter, but most of the property—especially the upper fields—remains dry year-round. Sniffin’ Hours: Monday to Sunday Spring & Summer: 8 AM – 8:30 PM Autumn & Winter: 8 AM – 7 PM During your visit, our two 5-year-old Doberman-Mastiff mixes will remain indoors so you and your pup can explore freely. Thanks for Sniffin’ at our Spot! —Daniel & Family
