55This place was absolutely perfect. I was looking for a large lot that was close to our house and this was the best spot. Everything is completely fenced and there is a water source available which made things extremely convenient.
Although you can hear neighboring dogs barking here and there it was nothing that was intrusive or triggering to our pup. We did not see any other people or animals during our visit! We will definitely be visiting again!Leticia L.

55We’ve been here multiple times and our whippet mix loves it for running and sniffing. We were pleasantly surprised that it was only muddy in one small area after all the rain we’ve had this week. He’s a timid dog and we think it’s probably good for him to see and hear the daycare dogs from across the fence. He also got to see horses for the first time walking by out on the road! Though it was a good experience for him to see different animals behind the safety of a fence, it’s also something to be aware of for those with very reactive dogs. Kate W.

55My first experience using sniffspot was a success! My Great Dane had so much fun and it was great being able to let him run around and play in a nice large fenced yard. Getting set up was super easy and I would definitely love to come back! Betsy C.

55Wide open field, minimal obstacles, secure fence. It was perfect for my whippet to sprint at top speed with minimal risk of injuries from obstacles. Location was easy to find and an easy 20 minute drive from Lake Forest Park. Well worth the drive and the money.Flora L.

55Great first visit to the Emerald Field. My young female and friend’s teenager desperately needed a place to run and play! That they did! Huge fenced area and a kiddy pool to cool down. Everyone had a wonderful time! We look forward to booking another spot. An added bonus was exposing the young ones to horses and riders as we were departing. Karleen B.

55This yard is HUGE and perfect for your dog to sniff, play and run. Our new rescue pup loved it, you can see the boarding facility and the occasional dog across the way but was perfect for our slightly reactive dog for her to see other dogs across the way to help desensitize her. I plan to come back quite a bit because it's perfect! Thank you :)Mandy M.

55Great spot for the fur pup to get his yayas out with his best fur girlfriend! Wide open space, well maintained (no gopher holes or things like that to step into and hurt oneself!). Mollyrose D.

55Th is a wonderful field for all sizes of dogs! My German Shepard was obsessed with all the sticks on the ground and the squirrels that come by and jump from tree to tree. Definitely will be coming back! Kaitey C.

55I returned to this field for the second day in a row.
I knew with the Fourth of July I needed to exercise my pup during the day before the fireworks started.
I was so glad I did, as he was terrified to be out in the evening with all of the fireworks.
We again had the best time here. Mirka S.

55This field was amazing, well groomed and so much space for my pup to exercise.
Honestly this was the best find since I just adopted my young German shepherd and do not have the facilities to provide him with this amount of exercise in the apartment we are in currently. Mirka S.

55This is a great find! Huge open field for running plus some wooded areas for shade and sniffing. Our whippet loved running around here. Like another reviewer said, you might want to bring chairs for humans. There were a few dogs out of the boarding center, but they were a ways away and it was actually good for our fearful dog to see them safely in the distance with no interaction. Can’t wait to come back! Kate W.

FAQ about our Shoreline 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 Shoreline area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is Bella's Home. The most expensive dog field is Bella's Home. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
