55This is not only the best Sniffspot in Albuquerque - it’s the best one I’ve ever been to! Carolyn and Stephanie have put so much thought into the space. It’s probably the cleanest, tidiest spot I’ve ever seen, with lots of shade and water, plenty of room to run, and all the toys and equipment you could possibly need. I literally booked our next visit while we were still there - we’ll be coming back from Santa Fe just to revisit this spot. Thanks so much for a lovely time!Sarah K.

55I received clear directions and there was a small sign on the gate to let me know I'd arrived. The location is peaceful with a few sounds of dogs and a rooster from surrounding properties. The ground is dirt with bark, and there are quite a few trees. There is an enclosed area away from the front gate for dogs who might be bothered by animals passing in the street, and after an initial visit there we expanded into the larger area. Drinks for humans are provided, as well as a first aid kit, insect repellants, and chairs. Many toys are available, as well as some agility equipment. I felt welcomed and comfortable - they even gave us cookies! - and although my dog is often anxious in new spaces, she relaxed here almost immediately. On this visit, all she wanted to do was check out the interesting new scents, but we'll have plenty to do in future visits. We were both very happy with our experience.Morgan S.

55This was the first time we tried a sniffspot and it was the perfect experience for our pup and for us! Our pup mostly sniffed (of course!) but also was able to roam freely and try out the various agility equipment which he had never done before, so he jumped the little rails, went up and down the steps and just seemed to be really relaxed and enjoying. The setting is so lovely and was supplied with all kinds of toys, balls, etc, which our pup wasn't all that interested in, but it's nice to have them available, plus water for him and us. Just all around a great experience. We only did a 1/2 hour this time, but will surely be back for more and look forward to perhaps a little agility training and more with Caroline and Stephanie! Thank you for making this available. It makes all the difference cause we will not go to dog parks! Alicia U.

55Such a great spot! Lots of room to run around, tunnels and jumps were out for the dogs to play on, and very securely fenced all around. My dogs had a ton of fun and were exhausted by the time we left! Thanks, Carolyn, for hosting! Mackenzie F.

55There are so many thoughtful details and touches at this SniffSpot. I was thoroughly impressed. They have designated parking spots, a large gated area for play, custom stands for numerous toys and treats, poop bags, garbage, generous water trough, two different seating areas in the shade for us humans, a muddy spot that water dogs will enjoy, and lovely trees to look at all around. I even saw some hummingbirds. They have done a lovely job with this space. I’ll definitely be back with my poodle boy! We love it. Danielle R.

FAQ about our Albuquerque small dog parks
Are small 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 are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
