The Best List of Dog Parks in B.C.

If you’re like me, you’re always keeping your ears tuned for words of the dogowner’s Holy Grail: the best dog park with the most fun stuff that your dog enjoys to the max.

Of course, what the best dog park looks like varies from owner -- and dog! -- to owner and it’s certainly fun to check out different ones and keep personal notes on them. For instance, I love West Vancouver’s Ambleside Dog Park. And why? Well, partly because it’s terrific, but also (if I’m honest) because it gives me a good excuse to visit Savary Island Pies for coffee and a non-doggy treat. I’m sure you have your own favorite, but it’s fun to add to the list and explore. (New parks and maybe new pies!) And when you’re traveling, a really terrific list of dog parks can save the trip. So when a reader sent me this list of Dog Parks in BC, I was floored. This is it, gang: if there’s a better list, I sure haven’t seen it.

The is from the Tsawwassen Animal Hospital and was apparently compiled from the database at Pets.Ca. Have fun!

A sea-wall walk is a nice stroll and there are a couple of fields for chasing balls and what have you.

The forest from the Park Royal side of the area is riddled with many trails.
