55We had a blast :) it was our second time visiting and certainly not our last. Carolyn was accommodating and very friendly. The dogs love having all that soft sand to run on and the bits of river to splash in. Looking forward to seeing how the space changes with the seasons. Arlo M.

Carolyn's 5 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Las Cruces | Sniffspot
55This was the perfect spot for my dogs on a hot day! They splashed around and had a blast! I didn’t notice a trash can so I packed their poop out, which is no big deal but now I know for next time. It was easy to find and the host was communicative with extra directions and info about the property. Sarah B.

55I've been hoping SniffSpot would catch on in this area, so I was excited to see this new spot. The property is very pretty and had lots of room for my dogs to run and splash in the river. Very private and Carolyn was so nice and responsive.
Google maps took me to the house, but the spot is actually across the road. Look for a red gate with hay bales and a little red shed nearby. Once you drive through the gate, it's a short drive back to some picnic tables by the river. Super accessible.Brianna A.

55My hunting-turned-house-dogs had a blast at this Sniffspot. It has stunning views and is perfectly private for those that have a dog reactive pup. Such a hidden gem in the Las Cruces area - especially where it is so hard to find large water spots for my pups to play in. We will most definitely be back!Lila S.

55Amazing experience today, my three fur babies had a blast. Enough room to play kickball, throw a ball out far, and it’s fenced all around. Talia was beyond friendly and accommodating. I will be booking again! Daisy R.

Elizabeth's Private Dog Park In Las Cruces | Sniffspot
55This property is very picturesque! We enjoyed taking pictures of our goldendoodles in their pecan grove. The property is large enough to give my dogs the opportunity to reach a full sprint for extended periods. They enjoyed themselves so much and were ready for a long nap after our hour was up!JAMIE V.

FAQ About Las Cruces 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.
