55We had a lovely walk with our pup today on some beautiful, top of the mountain acreage.
It was sunny so we opted to wander through the woods, following a wide dirt path.
There were pup treats and people treats available for us, and a big bowl of fresh water for Chuck.
Thanks, Ryan, for sharing you space with us. Ruth M.

55If you want a quiet forest walk in the country with no distractions, this is the spot! We drove up from Portland and knew once the road became gravel that this was worth it, lol. Host was kind enough to meet us and let us know where to go for trails and forest space (to the right past the white barn) but it was all open for the pups to explore. They had a blast and we will be back! Lea H.

55Expansive space with beautiful views and different terrains for our pup to explore. A little trek from Portland but worth it. Host was thoughtful and provided water and doggo and people treats. Would recommend booking spot for longer than 1 hour. There's just so much space to explore!Lan H.

55Forest! Views! So much space to let the dogs explore. We will most definitely be a repeat visitor here. (We agree with another commenter’s recommendation to book more than one hour; we didn’t want to leave the forest when our time was up!)K. W.

55I wasn’t quite sure what to expect driving up the long gravel road, but Ryan’s property is so lovely. Ryan herself is also a gem. She gave me the lay of the land and was so sweet. Note to first timers: keep driving up the road, past all the other homes, until you see her blue house. It can be confusing, but just follow the gravel road past her neighbor’s house.
So the property itself consists of her backyard which has a doggy pool and lots of areas to sniff (careful of all the bees this time of year) and then the land through her cousin’s property (which seems to be a Christmas tree farm?) into BLM land, where all the trails are. We checked out her backyard and headed onto the trails after. It was nice and quiet and it felt safe. Next time I’m wearing better shoes, because I did turn around at some point due to not wearing the right shoes.
This Sniffspot would also be fun to go with a friend and multiple dogs (provided they all get along!) if you feel uncomfortable walking into the woods by yourself. I will bring bear spray next time just in case we run into any wildlife out there.Chantalle v.

55This is a magical spot with many opportunities for exploration! We went cross country and hiked through fields and forests; was a great workout for both me and the pup. Ryan is an awesome host and gave me an orientation of the property before we took off to play. Joelle K.

55Big space, dogs had a great time exploring! Host met us at the front and described where to explore, which was very helpful. We drove right to it but I could see how some people could get a little lost. However, there are little signs with the house number that point directly where you need to go.
Piggy back on what others have said, book extra time to get in ample exploring!Jennifer P.

55Great spot and the views, wow! Ryan was great. She met with us when we got there for a quick debrief of the property which was handy. I’d recommend planning 1.5 hours so you have plenty of time to enjoy the space. Elizabeth C.

FAQ about our North Plains dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the North Plains area range from $10.0 and $10.0. The least expensive dog field is Appian Way Acres multi facility. The most expensive dog field is Appian Way Acres multi facility. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
