First visit to a new park

Walk the perimeter on-leash before unclipping: check the fence line for gaps, note where the water is, and watch the resident dogs for a few minutes. Keep the first session short and end it yourself while things are going well -- your dog will remember the park as the place good things happen.

What to pack for the dog park

Water and a bowl, poop bags (bring more than you think), a leash for the walk in and out, and a towel in the car for muddy days. A long line is the honest middle ground if your recall is a work in progress.

Which park suits your dog

Parks differ more than they look on a map. Start with fencing: escape artists and dogs with selective recall need a fully fenced park with a double gate, full stop. Small dogs do better where there is a separate small-dog section -- a 10 kg dog and a 40 kg adolescent do not play the same game. Then the ground: grass is easiest on joints and paws, gravel and bark mulch wear pads down and bake in summer sun.

Water and shade decide how long you can stay. Parks with drinking water on site save you carrying litres; natural shade or shelters matter from late spring onward. Timing is the other half: early mornings and weekday evenings are calmer, weekend mid-mornings are the social peak. If your dog is shy, reactive or still learning manners, go off-peak and keep sessions short -- twenty good minutes beat an hour that ends badly. Watch the gate area in particular; it is where most scuffles start, so enter and leave calmly with your dog leashed until you are inside.

Frequently asked questions

Are the dog parks fenced?

Fencing varies by park and is not always tagged in map data. Treat any park as unfenced until you have walked it yourself.

What if my dog does not like the park?

Not every dog is a dog-park dog, and that is fine. Leashed walks, sniff spots and playdates suit plenty of dogs better than a busy off-leash crowd.

How many off-leash dog parks are here?

0 are currently mapped in open data. The list above names each one.

Do dog parks cost anything?

Public off-leash parks are almost always free. If a park ever charges, it will say so on its own signage.
