Be responsible for your pets
Council has many designated off-leash areas in parks in Moreland, however owners need to be responsible and aware of others using the areas, ensuring full control of their dogs at all times.
When the dog is within 15 metres of any playground or sporting or community event, it must be restrained by its owner, even in leash-free areas.
Council’s Animal Management Officers patrol Moreland’s parks to ensure a safe environment for all.
Those breaching the requirements may attract a fine.
Responsible owners also need to clean up after their pets.
Owners are responsible for supplying their own bags, picking up after their own pets and disposing of animal waste in the correct manner.
