55Always come here when in the area. By far the best sniff spot I've been to.
55We loved this spot!! My dogs have never been able to run like this because Jack is an escape artist and we lack safe fenced spaces for him. They had a blast and we will definitely be back.
55It was awesome! It was our first time doing a sniff spot and it was exactly what we were looking for. Closed in, secured and lots of room to roam off leash! They wore us and the dogs out! So peaceful, beautiful and quiet. We will definitely do it again!
55Always the best time!
55Pups had a wonderful time on their first visit. There are plenty of smells to keep beagle brains happy and excited. The area was well kept with some horse droppings around I did have to be mindful to keep my chubby boy from thinking they were snacks left for him! Would definitely enjoy return visits. Thanks, Janet and family.
55Another fabulous visit! This is our favorite Sniffspot and our dogs are so happy here. Janet has thought of everything, even leaving towels out since it rained yesterday. We look forward to returning!
55The whole set up was very nice and peaceful.
55Always a wonderful time with the dogs here! Thank you Mrs. Janet for the great hospitality.
55We had a blast as always! 😊wonderful place to take your dog.
55It took a little longer to get than than the map was saying . My boy had a great time exploring . We will definitely be back soon.

November 2026 - We will be open on the weekends only. We are preparing to build a home next spring. We will try to stay open till the construction starts on the weekends. Thanks for understanding 🙂 Dec 1 2025 Update - Back Open! Oct 1 2025 Update - It’s hunting season, and we are closing October and November 2025 as a precaution. We don’t want a stray hunting dog to interfere with someone’s Sniffspot time. So we made the decision to close for 2 months. We’re sorry, it was a tough decision, but think it’s best. We promise - We’ll reopen in December 2025. Welcome to 50 acres of puppy heaven! Located off Crittenden Road in Suffolk, Virginia. Please take dirt lane, there is no house. Please do not disturb neighbors. Drive or Walk through the gate and the whole area is yours! There are walking trails in the woods, a pond to find and a river to explore. The open field is wonderful for training and or play. Your dog will love exploring this wonderful property. ***This is the country. The land is wonderful to explore but it is vacant and undeveloped. You will encounter nature, really in the spring and summer. There are ticks, snakes, uneven ground, rabbits, wet spots, etc. Please only book if you are used to the outdoors and being adventurous!*** Update from my guests comments: Wear bug spray when it’s warm, check for ticks after a visit, boots are recommended after rainy days, dogs may get muddy bring towels and look for the new mailbox to identify the dirt lane off the road. Enjoy!

Rosie is my two-year-old goldendoodle and this is her yard. I am in the process of giving it a complete makeover and hope to truly turn it into an oasis for the two of us. However, I know there are many dog owners out there who don’t have a fenced-in yard for their furbaby to safely run, play, sniff, and sunbathe. I want to share this space, especially as it takes on new life. I hope you’ll come visit!
