55great place, great toys, I will be back. My larger dog got one of her front paws (3 toes) stuck in one of the gaps of the blue wave agility ramp.
something to consider, if the gaps are just large enough for their toes on a specific angle, this is a ramp you msy want to avoid. it was minor discomfort for her and she still left very happy and tired :)Jennifer B.

Wide Open Meadows, great for running and leaping! | Sniffspot
55My dog had fun! There were a lot of good smells and we brought a ball for fetch. The terrain is uneven and I'd recommend boots for humans. We could hear noises from ducks and geese in a pond near the road, with the occasional "moo" from neighboring cattle. (I only note this because my dog loved those noises, but reactive dogs may not love them).Kaitlyn M.

55We were passing through Bellingham and needed to tire the pup out but only had 30 minutes. It was a great experience, easy to get to, and the area was really excellent for fetch because there is a downhill grade so my dog got tired even after 30 minutes! Will be returning on our next trip through the area!Alex S.

55Our go to spot was booked so we decided to branch out and try a new place. Glad we did! Plenty of room to throw the ball and we got to enjoy what remaining snow that was left. Sunset and clouds were beautiful. Make sure to bring your own water.Marsha H.

55Denise was a joy to meet! She is a dog trainer ... so she's very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. The spot is clean and beautiful ... a big play area with trees around so there's plenty of shade for resting between all the ball and frisbee chasing. My pup had a fantastic time :)Lisa R.

55Hi, this is a nice place. It was easy to find and it was easy to get all of our dogs out of the car and into the fenced area. We appreciated the private time we had with them as they had a blast playing together. Bring some water, and your set! The property is so nice, quiet and chill. This was our first SniffSpot experience and I am very happy we decided on this one for our first SniffSpot. Remember to bring some doggy bags to clean up after them! There is a garbage can to put them in so that was nice. Lots of toys! It was perfect for our needs with multiple dogs. I recommend this spot to anyone who is looking for a nice private space that has easy access, for your dogs to run freely and exercise, playing catch or just chasing each other. Thank you to the host! New experiences can be a little stressful for our family so the large Sniffspot sign helped a lot. I would recommend leashing your dog or carrying them as you bring them in and out of the gated area if you don't want them to run off towards the road or run out and get excited by the other parts of property, that aren't free roaming. For us the fence was great, I felt like my dogs were very safe inside. As you can see our baby was all tired out!!! Thanks again! Amy S.

FAQ about our Vernon dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. 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. 80% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Vernon area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 21 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 2 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
