Whittlesea Public Gardens Fenced Dog Park - Lalor (VIC)

3 /5 Babes J: Its decent and quite but is becoming more popular and not all the dogs are socialised. However, the people who use the walking track beside the park are frequently not dog-friendly. Witnessed on a few occasions people yelling and acting nervously around dogs that went up to the fence, for no reason. There was even one time the dogs were playing fetch and barking excitedly, and I saw a woman pull out a phone and start recording everyone in the park, which was clearly because the dogs were barking even though they were just having fun. Not sure what the thought process was, when there are several people and dogs happily enjoying a fenced off area, you are outside of and not bothering you. Theres also no need to use this path if youre afraid of dogs, its very out of the way from the park. Not keen on the upgrade with gravel for poor doggy feet either, unsure why the council couldnt just fix the fence and use some good soil to fill the holes.

1 /5 Pete Math: Wow, this is definitely no dog park, the grass is knee high, the fence a cheap meter high wire fence that any small dog can escape. Its unkempt and in a poor condition compared to the rest of the park, you wonder if your dog is safe from snakes that may be hiding in this untouched dog park.

5 /5 Ty JACKSON: Excellent off leash dog park. The park is reasonably thin but quite long with bush and trees which go up one side. At the top of the park there are assorted obstacles for dogs and a bench for dogs and humans. The area is grassy and gets a bit muddy after rain.

5 /5 Shayne Dixon: Great little fenced dog park with agility course, seemed to be well maintained. Pretty cool if you’re an aviation enthusiast, the planes come in really low overhead. My only criticism would be that there’s no bins anywhere that I could find.

5 /5 Hiral Patel: Its so nice to develop and maintain garden Really great time to spend at their
