55Super fun backyard with lots of grassy area to throw ball. We forget we are in the mountains so bring some bug spray, we would’ve enjoyed staying out longer if we weren’t being eaten. But overall an amazing little area to let the dog run! Nicholle D.

55I just adopted a dog from the humane society yesterday and wanted to give him some off leash time in a secure area where he didn't have to worry about other dogs. This spot was perfect! In a quiet neighborhood with lots of fenced-in room to roam and throw a ball around. My dog loved rolling in the grass and sniffing all the different smells. I really appreciated the fresh dog water and bowl too. We'll be back!!Nancy G.

55Such a nice and super clean place for my dogs to run and play. It nice and shady for us to be able to enjoy and relax with them while they run and play safely and securely. We recommend 100% if you’re traveling and need a place for your fur babies to run around an enclosed area. Vanessa F.

55Perfect backyard with plenty of space to play fetch and rest under the shade! Also very accommodating! We were a little late but were able to reschedule with a full refund and schedule a better time. Our dogs had such an amazing time - we will definitely be coming back soon!Kaitlyn L.

55I was in the middle of a road trip and needed somewhere safe to let my dogs play. This was a great place to stop! The fence was high and secure and there were so many fun things for them to explore. They especially liked all of the little hills and rocks to climb on.Jenny A.

55Visiting from California with my three retrievers who are needing to spend a lot more time on leash than they are used to. This sniff spot was amazing and paradise for my pups. They enjoyed running and stretching their legs. The space was securely fenced and clean and the grass was lovely. I cannot recommend it enough. Jennie K.

55The host was super communicative and welcoming beforehand making our experience a breeze. The yard was fully fenced, so my mind was at ease letting my new-to-me dog run wild and free while practicing our recall. The zoomies were zoomed, lol. The natural beauty of the place felt like a summer day in a Hallmark movie. Very impressed! We will be back!Coach S.

55Fantastic well-fenced large area close to town. PERFECT for my reactive aggressive dog who can’t go to public dog parks! no other people or dogs around. Water provided. Just a note for future visitors, there was a bone and a toy in the bag with the water. My dog is food possessive so we just removed the bone while we were there and replaced it when we left. Thanks for letting us use your yard to get some much needed energy out! Aggressive apartment dogs deserve to run off leash too :) we’re thankful to you Karsyn H.

FAQ About Durango 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.
