55Circle G Ranch is a great break for my dogs to have somewhere different to run around and sniff things. Ryan was very helpful and polite. He came out to meet us and made sure we knew where everything was located. I would highly recommend this Sniffspot if you are in the Ramona area looking for somewhere to take your dogs.Allison L.

55This is such a great place to take our dog to run. We live in a condo so he doesn’t have a yard, we try and bring him hear once a week to let him run. It’s so convenient, you just pull your car into the gate and shut it behind you and have the place to yourself. Ryan is super friendly and provides tons of toys, water, treats and poop bags. There’s a big glass table with a canopy that provides shade. Our dog loves it there. Thanks Ryan!Nicole V.

55Circle G Ranch is by far the best SniffSpot in San Diego county. It’s well maintained, safe, and so much fun for my dogs! And they’re always getting new toys! We love it there and make it a point to get there once a week! We highly recommend! Michelle N.

We had another wonderful day at Circle G Private' Dog Park. Our two setters had a ball running and chasing birds and I hiked along with them, enjoying the peaceful setting. This is truly the best Sniffspot location in San Diego, It's a bit of a drive from the city but totally worth it. Thanks Ryan for being such a wonderful host! And also for doing the extra weed whacking to clear out the foxtails. Your space is always so clean and welcoming. Can't wait to come back!Linda W.

55Molly and I had a wonderful time today. It was nice to leave the fast pace behind and take a drive up to quieter living and beautiful countryside in Ramona. And even better yet to let Molly run around on her own, checking out the smells and sights of nature without a leash on. Molly always gets excited when we arrive, and see our kind host Ryan too!

FAQ about our Alpine 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.
