Altus Dog Park

location_onAltus, OK

Compact and simple, Altus Dog Park at 1207 North Jackson Street covers the essentials for dog owners in this southwestern Oklahoma city: an off-leash yard with a separate space set aside for small dogs. Do not expect acreage. It is a modest neighborhood facility better suited to daily socializing and sniff sessions than to flat-out galloping, and local reviewers have wished aloud for more room, so owners of big, fast dogs should size it up on arrival. Still, it is free, it is fenced off from traffic on Jackson Street, and in a farming-and-air-base town on the shortgrass plains it beats a hot sidewalk. Summer visits go easier at sunrise or after dinner, when the wind is the only thing moving fast.
