Paula's Private Dog Park on the South Thompson River | Sniffspot
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.

55My two dogs are both rescue adopted dogs and Denise’s impeccable care of not only the Sniffspot area, but all the other areas for boarding and training dogs is gracefully managed.
She is incredibly thoughtful so that, as sometimes rescued pups can be reactive, she is so well organized that we never see or hear the other dogs in her care. They are in another beautiful outside area where we can not see or hear them, which allows my Fergus to be so relaxed and having fun!!
Thank you Denise for such incredible care and understanding of dogs!Kerry D.

55Denise’s spot was perfect!! It was just the right size and you can tell she takes great care of the property. Directions were super easy and she was nice and direct about where to go/park. The spot was open but shady with trees without any overgrown spots. The fencing seemed very safe and secure. I’ll definitely be bringing my pups back there again!Kyrsten E.

55We love Denise’s sniff spot! It’s fully and securely fenced, with plenty of shady spots for tired pups (and humans) to plop down in. Denise provided fresh water for the dogs, and lots of chuck-its and tennis balls. Our pups had a wonderful time!Toyo G.

55Pine trees and cedar trees lend shady places along with a great green grass field that my pups love running full speed chasing balls! Lots of sniffing, zooming around in this safe, off road private parking Sniffspot. There is a table and benches where people can sit and enjoy watching their dog(s) be dogs!

55Great location, 10 minutes from town. Fencing great, size great. Grassy with some trees and features, mix of shade and sun areas. Loved the chuckers and balls to use. Very well kept facility with a longtime canine professional; this is the experience we were looking for. Will absolutely return.Marina F.

55Such a lovely spot! Love the mix of wooded and sun spots, very clean. Very tall & secure fencing.
There are boarding dogs on the property but Denise seems attentive to the needs of sniff spot dogs for distance and privacy, and kindly checked with me to see if if my dogs are reactive or not. Elise D.

55This property is the perfect Sniff spot! It’s quiet, beautiful, clean and very well maintained. My dogs loved the mix of grass and wooded area to run and explore. The host was friendly and greeted us on arrival. Bonus is that Denise is an experienced dog professional and offers training, doggy daycare and cage-less boarding. All of which do not impact the privacy of the sniff spot, which was a relief to me for my dog-reactive dogs. This location will be our go-to spot in the future! Lisa C.

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. 100% 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 13 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 1 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.
