55This sniff spot is exceptionally clean and well appointed with fresh water in gallon jugs and dog toys. It is also large enough for our dog to run off some energy. We are vacationing in the area and we are very happy to have found this sniff spot for our reactive dog. If you have a reactive dog like mine, be aware that there is a neighbor dog that comes out directly to the fence line occasionally. We kept our dog on a long line to keep her away from the fence line and it worked for us. Again, we are glad to have found it and would happily return to this spot on future visits. Lori L.

55Fantastic spot! It's in a very quiet neighborhood and tucked away so we had zero distractions. The space itself had plenty of rooms for our dogs to run and had one of, if not, the best fencing we've experience at a Sniffspot.
Also really appreciated the Sniffspot signs out front that let us know we had the right place and where to park! Haven't seen that at other spots we've visited.
The host provided LOADS of fresh water and a whole basket of toys that our dogs loved playing with. Can't wait to go back!Ian J.

55This spot was great for our pooch! Clean and lots of toys. There were a few neighbor dogs barking that caught our dogs attention but it wasn't constant. Nice to have the umbrella for shade and there was plenty of clean water. Fencing was adequate for our 45 pound dog. Kelly a.

55This place was great for my reactive dog! He was able to run around without any triggers and I was able to relax and not have my head on a swivel the whole time. You do hear the neighbors dogs and other animals but Jax didn’t react to them as they are all at a far enough distance! This was a great place for Jax to be a pup and run around! And it’s super clean. Caitlin K.

55Beautiful spot with a very fun and unique layout. The host is absolutely lovely and she provides water, toys and more! If your dog jumps fences or is an escape artist, I would keep an eye on the back fence, but my escape prone husky did well and the yard was secure enough for him with me supervising :) we’ll definitely be back!

55This space was a great spot to take my pup for some much needed playtime. It is fully fenced in, in a quiet neighborhood, and has trees to offer shade. There was an assortment of toys to play with, a trashcan, and plenty of fresh water. We will definitely be going again!Grace P.

55This was perfect for us! We have a 4 month old puppy that we can’t let loose in our back yard yet because of his insatiable appetite for chicken poop. Being able to bring him somewhere secure and clean to do some off leash training and play was awesome. There were a couple dogs nearby, horses, a tractor, and lots of road traffic (cars and pedestrians) which was perfect for training but something to keep in mind for reactive dogs. We’ll be back!Emily W.

FAQ About Fort Collins 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. 3% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Fort Collins 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 123 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 205 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.
