Location

Mount Vernon, Washington

Description

Available Oct 31-March31, these are seasonally available pastures, grazed during the warmer months. 15+ fully fenced grassy acres, including a pond. Acreage is divided into 3 areas, with gates open or closed to limit or expand running space. Higher areas are drier, puddles in the lower spots. Pastures are vacant through the winter months. Parking is along a private gravel dead-end road. There is a SniffSpot sign on the double green gate. There are occasional dog-walkers along the road, but otherwise the spot is private.

Cleanliness

95% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

I have added drainage to the pastures, so there are now some narrow drainage trenches. There are bones, sticks and chunks of wood scattered about that my dogs have left. Your dogs are welcome to take them home, if they decide to possess one, or just settle down to chew.

I have had working dogs for 20 years, both herding dogs and livestock guardians. I currently have 1 elderly Border collie, 1 Border terrier for rats, and 7 purebred Kangal Dogs 🐕 to protect the livestock from predators. I breed Kangal Dogs and have a lo-o-ong waiting list. I hope to shorten that list in 2025 with two litters of pups, but we’ll see.
