Reno Airport's "Puppy Park"

Reno International Airport has a small, gated area for use as a canine rest stop. It's reasonably clean, as such things go, and includes a kiosk containing clean-up bags, a trash can, and a water spigot. And while it was too small to allow Glindy off-leash, it might be fine for that with smaller dogs. It's a terrific idea, and I wish more airports would do something similar.

In comparison, LAX doesn't have a dedicated relief area for dogs. They do, however, have some leafy ground cover and some manicured grass just outside and to the right of baggage claim. Because LAX is so much bigger than RNO, the grassy areas aren't as conveniently located, but it's still nice to know that they are there.
