55I had to move our visit because it was muddy and Denise was very accommodating! The place was amazing, and my 3 big dogs had a great time! My 2 dogs who don't like water immediately jumped into the pond and played with our GSD. The are was well kept and the perfect location for dogs to be dogs. We will definitely be back!Jennifer V.

55As always, this Sniffspot is a cut above! The trails that are mowed out are so thoughtful, the provided water and sunscreen, the pond with plenty of sticks, all add up to create a one of a kind afternoon with our dogs!Alaina G.

55My pups just can't get enough of Denise's place. They turn into Dora the Explorer and Ricky Racer 🐾. I enjoy the peacefulness and walking the trails too. Rhonda S.

55We absolutely loved it here! I brought along my camera, and did a little doggo birthday shoot… The paths are intentional, and easy to find. It’s quiet and exactly what our doggos needed! It’s a perfect little place to let their jajas out. Easy to find, easy to access. Hopefully we will be able to come back weekly!Courtney L.

55Amazing property for the dog to run free! Plenty of trails, pretty flowers, and the owner left bug spray and sunscreen out which was very appreciated! We will wear long pants next time because the grasshoppers are plentiful but we will definitely visit again. 10/10Sorrel L.

55Great piece of property for the dogs to be able run off leash and explore, sniff without us having to worry about other people or dogs. And I knew our boy would love that there was a place to take a little swim to cool off. Lots well cleared and defined paths to walk. And loved being able to sit in the chairs in the shade by the pond. Perfect spot our ridges. Sara M.

55We had so much fun! We walked around the property my dog loved walking in the higher grass and weeds and especially loved playing fetch in the high grass! We spent a good amount of time playing in the pond my dog was very happy to get cooled off! My dog wore a life jacket in the pond for extra safety but he probably didn’t need it since he knows how to swim. The host was incredibly kind and you have pretty much all you need. I would have loved if there were a map of the property but other than that it’s absolutely perfect! Jessica S.

55We had the BEST time. My girl was able to run off leash, swim, catch the ball (mostly until we lost it in the grass. Lol) the entire property is so nice! Like a real nature walk. We will for sure be back! Tamara S.

55What a beautiful spot for dogs to play and roam! So much space to explore. There’s a sign telling you which side doesn’t have a fence but plenty of space away from that area that I still felt comfortable taking my dog off leash and had no issue. Denise provided so many amenities such as bottle water, bug spray, sunscreen, ice water for the dog, balls and frisbee and even a little baggie of treats! A great Sniffspot that we will be coming back to!Kellee S.

55We have Annie, a 2yo female Catahoula Leopard Dog who loves to explore. We’ve exhausted all the routes in our own neighborhood so my wife suggested we try Denise's Private Dog Paradise. Today was a beautiful June day in North Texas, and Annie led us on the main trail to the property’s north fence line. Then we reversed course with Annie happily leading the way. When she saw the pond, Annie beat the heat by wading right into the water and lying down. She was smiling ear to ear! Annie loves to swim in ponds and lakes, but she will not enter our pool no matter how hot it may be. We really enjoyed our visit to Denise's Private Dog Paradise, and we will return soon! Thank you for allowing us to visit your property, and thank you for the dog treats, snacks, and water, too! That was a nice touch. Harry K.

FAQ about our Azle dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How can I find dog hiking trails in Azle?
There are 6 dog hiking trails in the Azle area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Denise's Private Dog Paradise. You can browse all of our dog hiking trails here.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
