New Enclosed Dog Park
This Consultation has been completed

Where should Warrnambool’s enclosed dog park go?
The 2018-2019 Warrnambool City Council Draft Budget included funding for an enclosed dog park.
Three potential sites have been identified:
- Harris Street Reserve
- Queens Road, the old BMX track site
- Victoria Park, off Koroit Street
An approximately 4000sqm enclosure will be marked out at each location, giving dog owners, nearby residents and Council a chance to see how each site looks.
The trial will start on July 20 and will run for three weeks. Community feedback will then inform Council’s decision on where a permanent enclosed dog park should be located.
Why build an enclosed dog park?
While Warrnambool already has 25 designated off-lead areas, enclosed dog parks are set aside exclusively for dogs and their owners.
They provide a space for dogs to socialise and exercise without the risk of impacting on the enjoyment of other park users.
Enclosed parks provide owners with more surety around the safety of their dog, especially for younger dogs who may still be in training. They allow owners to practice voice control of their dog in a secure environment.
