55K9Granny’sOff LeashFunSpot is just that: a beautiful spot in the county in which to run in the sun, chasing the birds (& the balls!) to your dogs’ delight! The acreage is lovely, and we can’t wait to return for another visit. No wonder it’s a “Top Spot”!

55Easy access and a good sized field. My girls loved it. There were animals grazing in the back field (separated by a fence) but an all-around quiet area.Georgia K.

55There used to just be cows on the adjoining property, now there are llamas. Those llamas do not back away from the fence and they will stare down a barking dog.Aly H.

55It was the first time for a friend and her dog and for me and my dog. The info on what to do/not do is clear and easy to follow. There is lots of room for dogs to run and explore, with mowed open areas, shade, and outbuildings. Along the south fence, you have fab views of Mt. Baker. We loved the place and will definitely return.Rae Ellen L.

55Great situation for my dog who is reactive-aggressive. At this sniffspot you are able to drive in, close the gate behind you and simply let your dog out of the car. There are ten acres of pasture in which to run, distant sounds of farm animals, and llamas in an adjacent pasture who never speak and are separated by an electric fence, which discourages investigation. The owner has a small dog who is rarely out in his own yard which is at the edge of the pasture and has not been a problem. At a distance from possible distractions is about a half acre, smaller fenced area with toys. I am unable to walk my pit bull in our neighborhood--the best I could do was to rig up a very long line that allows her to move around in a yard that is impossible to fence. This sniffspot is a paradise for her!Joanne P.

55Beautiful place. Everything was clean, easily marked and accessible and felt very comfortable just letting our dogs out off leash right from the car. All fences seemed intact. The dogs love being able to sniff around and explore the barn and we will certainly be back! john l.

55Out in the farmland north of Cordata. Clear signage and plenty of grassy running around area. Spacious and not a lot of "blind" spots where your dog can get hidden (like some of the larger Sniff Spots). No nearby livestock or domestic animals either! Nice to have a honey bucket too. Kendra W.

55Beatrice used to go here for barn hunt. We just recently learned of Sniffspot and were so happy to bring B back to this sweet little property. It’s been years but she remembered the place.
Highly recommend, very secure and clean!Maria S.

55This was worth the drive from Bellingham. We are fostering a high-energy Border Collie mix and she LOVED running the perimeter of the fence, sniffing everything. And just having room to run and run and run. Toys to play with, water for them to drink, lots of room for the dogs to explore. It was perfect.Aircat T.

55What an amazing place! My dog was in heaven. Large field to run and train in, barns to explore, toys to play with and he had the place all to himself. Booking a second visit as I type this. There truly are not enough starts available to give this place. I would give it a thousand out of a thousand if I could.Susan S.

55Our FAVORITE spot. Lots of well maintained open space, great variety of toys, 2 spots for water breaks, plenty of shade for those exceptionally hot days. It has a peacefully quietness in the air with even a pair of eagle that often make an appearance.

55Such a great spot. We moved out of town about 5 months ago and came back to visit this week - I made sure to book it as many days as it was available; we really miss not having access to it where we live now!Jessica B.

55Such a big property and gave my pup lots of area to roam, sniff, and play! I brought my own toys for the day but there’s a nice basket full of toys on the property if you forgot yours! Definitely recommend Jaelyn B.

55I'm so glad we were introduced to this Sniffspot! In our first 2 visits, my pup has finally had the freedom to run around and wear herself out with other like-minded pups in a secure, safe, clearly dog-centric spot. There's grass for running and rolling, all kinds of toys for chasing, little inclines for trudging, and then the large area to walk on-leash to calm down a bit before heading home. And super easy to find and access. Thank you k9 Grammy! Emily K.

FAQ about our Parksville 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 Parksville?
There are 12 fully fenced dog parks in the Parksville 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.
