🐾 Kids at the Dog Park: Real Stories, Safety Risks & Smarter Solutions
If you’ve spent time at an off-leash park, you’ve probably seen it:A parent strolls in with a stroller 🚼 or […]
Located off Old Sanford Rd, Lee Field Dog Park offers dog owners in Alamosa, Colorado, a dedicated, fenced space for their pets to play and socialize. The park features two separate areas, including a section specifically for small dogs to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for pups of all sizes. While the park is fairly basic, it does have agility elements like ramps, tunnels, and a seesaw to help keep dogs entertained and active. Visitors particularly appreciate the beautiful open space, plenty of room for running, and a scattering of benches for owners to relax.
The park is wheelchair accessible and suitable for families with children, making it a welcoming spot for locals and travelers alike. While the amenities are no-frills, it’s one of the few leash-free options in Alamosa for off-leash play. Do note that the fencing is not very tall and there are sometimes goat head burrs in the grass, so visitors should come prepared. There are also some concerns about maintenance, such as a lack of waste bins and potential signs of neglect. Despite the flaws, Lee Field Dog Park offers a valued community space for dogs to burn off energy in Southern Colorado’s great outdoors.
I’m not sure what makes a dog park. This is a couple of fenced large spaces with dirt and a small grove of trees. The larger area has a single dilapidated 2×6 “seesaw” for dogs. The same plus a couple other “dog obstacles.” [shrug] a place to take the leash off …
Really – all that money on those fancy government buildings and new roads and this is the best you could do for a dog park. Almost impossible to even get to because there’s no actual road back there. The chicken wire fencing is so short in some areas I could almost step right over it. No trash cans and which means it’s covered in other dogs poop. What a pitiful excuse for a dog park.
2 parks so small dogs have their own. The only negative is the goat head burrs. I have to pull at least one out every trip.
Horribly infested with spikey goat heads. Every step is a painful goat head in my dogs feet. Don’t bring your dog here. Sorry, was a good park but somehow it got infested over the last year. Bummer, it’s a great space.
No frills (but it’s not Spring weather around here yet & it was empty). Plenty of room for my dog to run & play ball and secure gating and that’s all we needed.
Benches all around and great views. Some ramps and tunnels for dogs to run through. We’re visiting from Texas and my Lab was feeling pent-up & this park did the job.
