55This may be a bit long, but the TL;dr is: I drove an hour from Salem to get here and I would (and likely will) 100% so it again.
This is a really large area that is fully (and securely) fenced. My border collie Auggie can be a bit of a Houdini when he wants to be, so we walked pretty much the entire fence line and it is super secure, even for smaller dogs.
There’s a mix of long and short grass, which was perfect because Auggie could frolic in the longer areas while I didn’t have to wade through it if I didn’t want to.
There is a neighbor’s dog on the right side of the property that is visible, but it pretty much ignored us the entire time we were there. Auggie can be dog reactive, but he had no issues because there was so much more to explore. There are also chickens in one area that are fenced off, but visible, but again they weren’t that interesting to Auggie compared to everything else.
The property is super easy to find and Linda’s instructions were spot on. We had no issues getting in or leaving, and the drive out there was absolutely beautiful.
Linda also provided poop bags and a trash bin right by the front gate, which was super appreciated (I never like having to bring those stinky poop bags back in the car for the drive home).
Finally, my only tip would be wearing boots if you go during one of Oregon’s many rainy seasons. There are some areas that are a bit muddy (understandably), but even with the mud, Auggie didn’t actually get that dirty because there were so many other areas to run around and get the mud off.
All in all, I can’t rave about this place enough. Truly such an amazing property and I’m so grateful to Linda for opening it up!!Ashley K.

55Nice fenced field. Hose and dish for water, poop trash can, and scooper if you forget bags.
I liked the fence within fence for dogs that might bark at (very rare) passers by.
Pretty private/quiet location.

55Nice big, open field with secure fencing. I liked that there was a hose available to make sure the dog water was clean and fresh. There was plenty of room to park, and it was a very short walk to the field. Didn't hear or see any other animals. My dogs had lots of fun and we will definitely be back.Sam J.

55Field is huge, dog had a fantastic time running around. It was raining pretty hard and there is no shelter so dress accordingly if you come in rain/ hot sun. There’s water for pups, and chairs there.Kyra A.

55The place was clean and well-prepped with a bowl of water and garden hose, empty trash can, and even a few toys. Great big fenced in pasture with more room than I can throw a frisbee. Thanks for sharing your property with us! Joe S.

55We had a great time! It’s a conveniently located spot, relatively close in to the city for its size. Very clean and well maintained. The fencing was secure and it felt safe for the dogs to roam freely. I’d say the only down side was the incessant barking of the neighbor’s dogs. These two dogs didn’t stop barking the *entire* time we were there. This isn’t the SniffSpot owner’s fault, obviously, but if you have dogs that are reactive to other dogs barking, this could potentially be a problem. Cicely T.

FAQ about our Irrigon 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.
How can I find dog fields in Irrigon?
There are 5 dog fields in the Irrigon area. The most popular dog field is Safe, quiet country spot. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
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.
