55This is a fantastic spot for the doggos and me! Plenty of paths cut through for the pup to explore and they absolutely loved running though the tall grass too. It was such a nice morning with a breeze so we didn't get too hot. They checked out the pond but mostly enjoyed stretching their legs on the rest of the beautiful property. Water left out for the pups was certainly an appreciated bonus. There were treats and some other things left on a picnic bench plus a trash can as well. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful spot! We all had a lovely time and will certainly be back! 😊Rhonda S.

55I believe this is their favorite spot; both pups stay fully engaged on the trails and seem to love running in the tall grass as well as taking dips in the pond. An enjoyable adventure for them and me. Worth the drive for sure! Rhonda S.

55We had such a good time!! The place is gorgeous and it feels so peaceful and secluded. I also love that the pond, trails and yard area are separated out. This meant I could play some fetch with my ball-crazy girl and then take her sniffing through the trails without her thinking about the tennis ball… until
We got back to the gate again, and we could take another turn! It also meant I could decide if I wanted today to be a swim day or not. We loved the toys and milkbones, and especially the water bowl that was left out for us. It was a lovely big bowl, so my boy could stick his whole head in to cool off. Thank you for running such a beautiful, clean and enriching spot! Clemmie J.

55This property is about 45 mins from me and after visiting it, I know it was totally worth it. First, it can be hard to identify the right location in some of these “rural” spots, but Mandy has a “Sniffspot” sign right by the start of the driveway to her property. I didn’t have to wonder if I was going down the right road. This was a small touch that I appreciated. Mandy also communicated really well so I knew exactly where I could park, where to enter, etc. The property was absolutely gorgeous. She has 2 fenced areas. One encircles her home and the other is the larger “field” area. The area by her home is plenty large enough by itself. I have 3 80+ pound dogs, two of which are high energy runners and this area was plenty for them before even going into the field area. Mandy has thought of everything a guest might need. She has a picnic table by her home stocked with human snacks, bottled water, dog toys, dog brushes, water bowl for dogs, sunscreen, bug dope, etc. Theres a waste bin conveniently located so I didn’t need to try and figure out where to throw away the waste. There are shade trees in this area as well. After my dogs explored this whole area, we ventured into the field. This area isn’t just a giant flat blank spot. It’s visually interesting with groves of trees, several trails created by mowing down the tall grasses that zig zag across and around the property. This was awesome because once my dogs explored one trail, they found another and another - no boredom or “zone fatigue” here! At first I was nervous because there are areas where your dog can run out of your sight, but I didn’t need to. The whole place is secure and even my escape artist couldn’t figure out how to get loose. There is a neighboring property on one side of the field area that has a dog we could hear barking but it was inside. I imagine that on some occasions that dog would be outside (as it should!) and could greet your dogs (safely separated by the cattle wire fence). If you have a reactive pup, you might want to keep that in mind and steer clear of that side - this property is plenty large enough to do that - or be prepared to monitor. I also want to remind guests that they are in the country so you might want to check your dogs paws from time to time for burs, poke-y grass etc that could get in their paws. One of mine has longer hair in her paws and she picked up a burr that was easy enough to remove. There is also a pond area that we didn’t check out but plan to next time. Last, and the best part, was my dogs absolutely LOVED every minute of the hour we spent here. I swear they were smiling the whole time. Frankly, it’s great for humans too! It’s peaceful, quiet, absolutely gorgeous and a great way to relax from the noise of suburbs and cities. I can’t recommend this place enough. Melanie S.

55What an awesome property! My dog loved how much there was to sniff and so much grass run around in. He enjoyed the pond and i especially enjoyed the trails. It’s a really calm and quiet area to get out to from the city, definitely worth the drive!Mary S.

55Second time visiting this sniffspot and it was awesome! My friend’s dog is about 45lbs and much smaller than mine and was able to wiggle through a part of the barbed wire fence so for escape artists without a good recall this property might not be the best choice but with proper management this Sniffspot should be great for many! Definitely will be returning again💕Mary S.

55The property is so beautiful, with groomed trails to walk on. This would be a perfect place for off leash for dogs with a solid recall, otherwise utilize a long line (which we knew and had on our female setter whose recall is iffy). Our setters loved swimming in the pond and hunting in the tail grass. Beth B.

55Super great spot! Wesley had the time of his life! It was so fun to watch him prance around and explore. It took him only a couple minutes to accept the presence of the cows. Definitely recommend! There was a loose or wild dog that happened to run off the property as we were walking around, so maybe take a quick look around first if you have a reactive dog! livvy b.

FAQ about our Alvarado fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?

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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
