Dogs on leads

All dog owners are responsible for their pet’s behaviour in the community.

When walking your dog on any road, footpath or square they must be on a lead which is 2 metres or less in length. Reserves are off lead zones for dogs which are under effective control, except any reserve which is declared to be an on lead area, such as the areas listed below or where otherwise stated.

Dogs are not permitted within a private place without the consent of the occupier.

Regardless of the space, dogs must be on a lead (2 metres or less) within 5 metres of any playground and on lead on any park or reserve during times when organised sport is being played.
