Yukon and Denali

If you are anything like me your dog is a crucial member of your family. I have two dogs, Yukon 6 years and Denali 8 months. My dogs are great fun and a pleasure to take places, but I am always trying to find a new place to take that that is withing the county and city dog regulations.

Below is a list of off leash dog areas in Bellingham and around the county. Feel free to leave comments and add your favorite dog friendly retreat to the list!
