55This place is a heaven for pups, especially if they love to play in water. It’s also one of few places with large acres fully fenced off so you can have peace of mind. Fencing is generally secure, but there’s a spot in the corner of the lake near the entrance side where there’s an enough gap between ground and the bottom wire for a dog to crawl under. (and my very curious pup did and we had to retrieve him) If your dog doesn’t have a good recall or is an escape artist like ours, I would recommend having a long line attached or watch them closely. All in all, we had good times and my pups loved the place! We’ll visit again when we visit DFW.Sumin J.

55I love Mandy's space! She is is a great host and sent us all of the info we needed ahead of time. My dogs had so much fun and loved wading in the pond. One of my dogs has bad abandonment issues and doesn't like to go outside- but he ran and played without a care in the world when we visited, it was so great to see him finally let loose! We have already made plans to return to Mandy's place!Elizabeth H.

55Great spot for off leash fun! Plenty of room to run around and explore. My golden loved the pond! Could hear neighbor’s dogs but they were off in the distance so it did not bother my dog whatsoever - never saw other dogs or cattle actually when we went! Highly recommend visiting this SniffSpot.

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.

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.

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.
