55Valerie out host net us on a four wheeler to give a run down of the 40 ACRES of discover land. She lives nearby and said do not hesitate to text if you run into any problems. There are creatures to sniff out, birds to chase, tall graases to run thru and shirt walk up driveway and a road crossing to get to river for some swimming fun. Dogs are wet, tired, sniffed out and sleeping. Thank you Valerie! Scott M.

55We had such a wonderful time! The person who met us was very friendly and helpful, and our dog had the best time playing in the river for a while and then drying off by running through the fields in the sun! Stephanie L.

55My dog loves this spot! So much acreage, and so much beach! He loved frolicking in the grass, and when he got too hot we went a cooled off in the river where he had a blast running up and down the beach and into the water Miranda R.

55Wide open fields. Be sure to bring water and hit restrooms before arriving. Scenery is gorgeous and picnic table in shade provided. Access to river water is across the road and down a steep embankment with a rope handrail.Katrina R.

55My pups had such a fabulous time here! We appreciated the overview when we arrived and the cleanliness and accessibility of the spot. The only thing I would tell other guests is that the river area is across the road from the rest of the spot, so plan to leash your pups for safety while crossing over. Thank you, Valerie & fam!

55What a great afternoon! It was almost 100° in portland, we lucked out to find a sniff spot with river access. Valerie met us (right on time) at the picnic table at the bottom of the driveway and explained the property. The beach access is across the road and there is a steep hill down *but* there’s a very thoughtful rope “handrail” to make it easier. The river was a bit mucky, but we had so much fun that it didn’t matter at all. 10/10 will be back! THANK YOU!. Rose G.

55It was so nice that the owner met with me the first time. It’s such a big place. My car was parked in the shade of a tree, while the dogs and I walked around the farm a bit.
My small hunting dog, was loving the smells and the hunting of small things. After she finished that, we went over the road to the water side. My retriever and i played in the cold water. While the hunting dog, smelled around for small things.
We all had our needs met.

55This spot has wide open fields on one side and river access on the other—it is perfect for the dog that likes an adventure! I have never seen my pup so happy as I did watching him run in and out of the water and rolling in mud. There are lovely shaded places to eat and rest for the humans. Be prepared to accomodate a very wet and muddy dog on the way home! Denise M.

55We had an amazing time today! The host was super communicative and friendly and gave us the lay of the land when we arrived. My dog is reactive to other animals so I wasn’t sure how he’d do with horses in the distance but he didn’t even notice and/or seem to care. He was too interested in sniffing the wide open fields and playing in the water. There was so much space to explore and on a hot day like today it was perfect to have the water option, too. He was one tired doggo when we got home. We will definitely be returning! Ronnie N.

55Absolutely beautiful! Mostly spent time in the water and my dog had a lot of fun. Some boats and jet skis passed but they stayed far enough away from the shore she wasn’t bothered enough to bark and spin. There was a dog barking in The distance but you could not see it and we didn’t even come across any small animals! My first sniff spot; I’m so glad I chose this location. Owners are very friendly and informative :)Pauline C.

55My dog and I had a blast on this amazing property. The super friendly host, Valerie, met us to give an overview of the property and where to go. There’s endless running, exploring and chasing field mice, plus much-needed shade. Access to the water is across the hardly traveled street… there are bushes to navigate and it’s muddy/rocky (careful not to slip!), but my pooch didn’t want to stop swimming. We’ll be back!Laura D.

FAQ about our Clatskanie 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 Clatskanie area range from $4.0 and $23.0. The least expensive dog field is The Lavender Hill Mob. The most expensive dog field is Black Horse Station Horse Power Fun. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
