55This was our first time using sniff spot. I brought my wife and two children, and we all had a blast. I did not realize there was an inflatable water slide, so I think my kids had even more fun than my dog did. There was tons of space and towels for everybody, sun and shade available. Definitely will visit again.Manny G.

55Ruben and his wife Angelica are such gracious hosts! They have an amazing yard with everything your dog could want to have an incredible time. Camo loved sniffing around the yard and jumping in their large pool and I was able to sit in the shade and relax. I brought toys, a water bowl and a towel but Ruben provided all of those items. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you Ruben!Lauren R.
