55Just beautiful! We got very lost on the way there (via Waze), but once we made it, it was totally worth the effort. The dogs were in heaven, and it was a peaceful city escape for the humans too. We’ll be back for sure.Faye W.

55Amazing spot! Fully fenced and secure for moderately small breeds and larger. A tiny pup may be able to slip through some spots, but my two smalls respected the fencing well. There’s so much room for your dog to stretch out, and the host messages to let me know we could even go into their sunflower field right next to the field! We will absolutely be back for some off leash fun.Abbey J.

55I loved the wide open spaces for my dogs to run and explore. The vegetation along the fence line provided a lot of entertainment and the dogs had a chance to run full speed off leash. Directions to the location were perfect. Rachel B.

FAQ about our Alvarado dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Alvarado area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 255 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
