LAS VEGAS, NV - Dog owners know their four-legged friends need space — a lot of it.

Particularly space where they can frolick off leash. Run. Bark. Wrestle. Chase. You know, dog things. Thankfully, the Las Vegas Valley is one of the best places in the country for that, according to the good folks over at The Trust for Public Land. They took the time to dig in to the data to find which cities across the country offer the most options for Fido to run free. The results? Henderson was tied for the second highest number of dog parks per 100,00-0 residents in the country. Las Vegas was just behind, coming in tied for fifth on the list.

Other Nevada cities didn't grade out as well for dogs and their owners. North Las Vegas and Reno were each tied for 53rd on the list. Here's how the Silver State's four big cities stacked up, according to the non-profit. Henderson (Rank: No. 2 overall, No. 1 in Nevada) Population: 290,567 Dog parks: 15 Dog parks per 100,000 residents: 5.2

Las Vegas (Rank: No. 5 overall, No. 2 in Nevada) Population: 642,798 Dog parks: 26 Dog parks per 100,000 residents: 4

North Las Vegas (Rank: No. 53 overall, No. 3 in Nevada) Population: 244,004 Dog parks: 2 Dog parks per 100,000 residents: 0.8

Reno (Rank: No. 53 overall, No. 3 in Nevada) Population: 248,815 Dog parks: 2 Dog parks per 100,000 residents: 0.8

Every city in the top quarter of the rankings had at least 1.8 dog parks per 100,000 residents. While impressive, no city can hold a candle to Boise, Idaho, which has 15 dog parks for its roughly 225,400 people. That's a whopping 6.7 off-leash dog areas per 100,000 residents.

On the other end of the spectrum, some areas can be tough for man's best friend. The study found that of the following cities, not one has a single dog park.

Garland, Texas

Lubbock, Texas

Santa Ana, California

Newark, New Jersey

Hialeah, Florida Each year, the organization's Center for City Park Excellence gathers data on the nation's largest city park systems.

"This year, we decided to take a closer look at the dog parks data because they are becoming so popular," Charlie McCabe, the center's director, said in a statement. "That led to these rankings of cities with the most dog parks relative to population."

Dog parks, meaning off-leash dog areas, were among the fastest growing park amenities in the combined parks systems of the 100 largest cities, The Trust for Public Land said. The group, which aims to create parks and protect land to foster healthy and livable communities, released its findings in March.

There were 774 dedicated dog parks in the 100 largest cities last year. That's 38 more than there were in 2016, and 40 percent more than there were in 2009, the group noted. The survey found that New York had the most number of dog parks with 140 off-leash dog areas. New York ranked just 28th in the country though because that amounts to 1.6 dog parks per 100,000 residents.
