You are missing a location, why?

It’s impossible for us to get to every dog off lead park, reserve, trail and beach in Australia (although we’re trying!), so we rely on others to provide us with the information about the locations. If you notice that our information is out-of-date, incorrect, or if you’ve got more details or a new location to add, let us know via the email above or using the submit page.

What rules apply when using off-lead dog areas?

Each council has slightly different requirements for using dog off lead areas so check the council website and signage at the park. Most of the locations listed on Doggo allow dogs to be off-lead at all times, however where time restrictions apply this information is included in the location description.

You are required to have effective control of your dog when using off lead areas, which generally means that you can see your dog and that your dog will respond to voice commands.

In many parks, dogs are prohibited off-lead in or near playground and bbq areas, and during organised sporting events, so it’s usually best to put your dog on a lead in these areas. You should also be mindful of other park users and be sure to ’scoop the poop’ and not let your dog harass other dogs or people using the area. We’ve prepared a page ‘Enjoying off-lead areas‘, which provides some further information and tips on enjoying off-lead activity responsibly with your dog.
