55I live in the Vancouver area, so coming to Paula’s sniffspot is such a nice treat for my dogs. A HUGE open space to play fetch and practice training. Then to cool off we swam in the pond and river. She even had some goodies for my two boys. Megan O.

55We enjoyed this SniffSpot! It was a good size for two dogs. It was securely fenced and quiet spot. It’s nice that it’s in Bellingham and the price is great!Heather H.

55Best part of our weekend is coming here with our dogs! The field is so well maintained and very secure. Plus the scenery is ridiculously beautiful and active - mountains, eagles, horses, goats ... absolutely love it! Chris V.

55We were staying in the area and wanting a safe place to let the dog run around. This was a perfect spot!
It’s fully fenced with plenty of space for ball chasing. There’s a little hill, which helped to tire him out more :)
The host’s dog was in the nearby fenced yard, but my dog completely ignored it. There’s also some goats, cows, and horses that are visible from the play area, but not anywhere near the fenced area. It was a nice, quiet, and peaceful field.
The host provided a variety of chuckits and tennis balls.
A great spot overall!Cassandra C.

55What a fun experience! Easy to find, the off leash area is right off the road. I love that it’s all enclosed, makes for a relaxing visit for me while my pups run and play. We will definitely be back to play! Thank you!!!Karen P.

55This place was so great! Just as described. My pups loved it and it was such a beautiful setting. Really cool to see horses across the way and listen to the goats in the neighboring yard. Can't wait to return! Chris V.

55The spot was simple and perfect as I just needed a huge space for my pup to be able to run her heart out! She loved the toys and played hard! Thanks for having a great space. Maybe I missed it but would love to have a spot to get some water or have some water available. Thanks again we will be back! Jessica P.

55We love this place so much we've made it a once weekly visit - at least - for our dogs. They have so much fun running around and it's great for us humans too! The views are spectacular and it's just a fun space. Look forward to so many more visits. Thanks Colleen!Chris V.

55We did some beginner retriever training and it was the perfect spot with some changes in terrain that allowed us to introduce a couple of basic concepts to our dogs. Nice and quiet and safe! The perfect spot!Nancy D.

Always a great way to spend some time outside of the city. Today we watched a neighbor train her horses while we played fetch. Amy F.

FAQ about our Pinantan Lake 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. 92% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Pinantan Lake 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 11 fully fenced dog parks in the area. 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 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.
