Hi there! Welcome to our Sniffspot! We have a large backyard and happy to have other folks and their pups use the space. Please use the driveway and park in front of the chainlink gate. There is a sign on the gate. We will have a picnic table out in the meadow during the warmer. Kindly pick up after your pups! Two important things to note: 1. If your pup is reactive to dogs or has fence aggression, our spot might not be the best fit. We do have neighbors that have dogs and it hasn’t been an issue with most, but definitely has caused some challenges for some. Please feel free to reach out with more questions and let me know if you have any issues. 2. we use the adjoining yard for our ourselves, kids, and our dogs. There is a tall fence that surrounds it and a secondary fence so our dogs do not come up directly to the fence. You may or may not periodically hear or see us in that space.

Easley Acres Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Vancouver

Fully Fenced
2 acres

We live on 5 acres about 1 mile from Camp Bonneville. The 2 acre pasture has a fenced seasonal pond in the middle, flat and open with lots of room for zoomies, frisbee, fetch, or just lounging and enjoying the birds and trees. Pasture is fenced with 4 foot field fence with electric wire at the top (not charged), and separate from the house. Front fence borders on 68th St. Plenty of room to run and explore! Let's keep the pasture nice, please discourage digging and pick up after dog. My Border Collie and Mini Aussie will find your leavings (it's a large space, I understand things get missed, it helps to carry poo bags to minimize backtracking). For human exercise... 6 laps around perimeter fence is approx. 1 mile, 6 laps around pond fence is approx. 1/4 mile.
