55This was my first time using sniff spot and it was awesome. My dog can be reactive at dog parks so we don’t have a lot of options for free roam play. Perfect yard size for fetch and just being able to hangout outside with your dog. Merissa C.

55This was our first time to Jill and Lil’s and we enjoyed it so much! Our two dogs had the best time running around, plenty of room to chase each other and play. Lots of toys to play with, fresh drinking water, lovely benches to sit and watch your pups, this spot has everything you could need. We came down from Canada and will definitely make the trip again!

55Quiet street. Bid yard. Clean, inviting and organized...nothing my curious puppy could find and destroy. Lots of room for running and playing. Great covered sitting and uncovered sitting options. Large beautiful tree. Play station at front with hand sanitizer and several toys/balls. 2 fresh water locations. Generally quiet space...some neighbor dogs in the background. Property abuts a Greenway type space...so trees in the background. Fairly easy to find the address and the the Sniffspot entrance sign. Will visit again. Thanks. Kim S.

55Excellent experience. This is our favorite Bellingham sniff spot. Always clean and welcoming. Just the right size to play fetch with my 65 lb Shepherd mix with an arthritic back. We'll be back!Tani B.

55“Lucy” had a fantastic time!!! This experience was everything we had hoped for and more…
However, I am afraid to write too glowing a report, for fear that we will be unable to book a convenient time in the future….
Unfortunately, we didn’t take any pictures (I forgot)…We were too engrossed in watching our puppy running ‘free’ (off-lead) for the first time.
In summary, cannot wait to return.Warren B.

FAQ about our Penticton fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Penticton?
There are 11 fully fenced dog parks in the Penticton area. The most popular fully fenced park is . You can browse all of our fully fenced dog parks here.
How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
