Your guide to on and off-leash

locations.PARKS IN THE CITY OF GLEN EIRA

Dog off-leash areasDogs make wonderful companions to people of all ages. Owning a dog can help boost self-esteem, provide stress relief and improve health. They can provide hours of fun, relaxation, happiness and unconditional love. However, along with these benefits comes certain responsibilities to our pets and the community.

Cleaning up after your dog It is your responsibility to clean up after your dog at all times. You can do this by using a bag or a pooper scooper. Please don’t inconvenience others by leaving your dog droppings behind.

To assist dog owners, Council has installed bag dispensers in many parks. However, be sure to take a bag with you whenever you exercise your dog, in case there is no dispenser handy.

Leash requirements Dogs must be kept on a leash that does not exceed 1.5 metres in length.

Dog owners’ obligations in off-leash areas All dogs must be properly restrained by way of a chain, cord or leash, whenever they are in public places in the City of Glen Eira. This includes roads, streets, footpaths, car parks or any parks or reserves. The exception is if you are within a designated off-leash area.

Dogs must also be under effective voice control at all times and kept on a leash that does not exceed 1.5 metres in length.

Dogs must not be off-leash when within 20 metres of barbeques and picnic areas; children’s playgrounds; the Duncan Mackinnon athletics track and netball facilities; Packer Park velodrome; sporting events; sportsground preparation; and organised public meetings.

Council’s animal management officers regularly patrol parks and reserves during the day, evening and at weekends.

Owners who fail to comply with Council's order under the Domestic Animals Act, and the provisions relating to dogs in parks and recreational areas, can be subject to fines and/or court action.

Consider other park users Off-leash areas are still public areas, which means they are open for all to enjoy, not just dog owners. Not all people like dogs and some people can be intimidated by even small dogs running up to them, so never let your dog jump up on people.

If your dog does not return to you when you call it or you have difficultly controlling your dog's behaviour, you should never let your dog off its leash. Remember you must have effective control of your dog when it is off-leash.

Where to exercise your dog The City of Glen Eira recognises that dog off-leash areas are beneficial for the health and wellbeing of dogs. With this in mind many parks have designated dog off-leash areas. Please see the table on the reverse of this page for a dog off-leash area near you.
