If you aren’t familiar with SniffSpot.com, it acts sort of like AirBnB for backyards. You can search for locations that have the amenities you want (fully-fenced, no other animals, etc) and then, rent the space for you and your dog! It is a really nice outlet to get your dog some off-leash exercise and the company does screen the owners pretty well. I’ve used them for almost 4 years both in North Carolina and the DMV and have been happy on all but one occasion (which the company was quick to remedy). If you have a city dog, or can’t access a safe place to let your dog run, check out www.sniffspot.com

Beau invited his friend, Argos, to a play date and despite the humidity and the gnats, the boys had a great time and quite possibly the politest game of keep-away ever witnessed! A nice way to end the month of May!
