To help everyone appreciate our outdoor lifestyle, the Toowoomba Region has designated areas where you can run your dog off its lead. So all users can enjoy dog off-leash areas safely, we ask that the following are observed and that all dog/s –

  • must be effectively controlled.
  • must not attack, menace or worry other persons or animals.
  • must not damage private or public property.
  • must not escape from the off-leash area.
  • must wear a collar and identification tag.
  • must be restrained by a leash outside of these areas at all times.
  • faeces must be removed and disposed of appropriately.

Declared dangerous dogs, menacing dogs, prohibited breeds, or female dogs that are in season (on heat) are not permitted in these areas.
