Dog off-leash areas
Council provides a number of dog off-leash areas along the foreshore across the Fraser Coast.
These areas provide the opportunity to play, exercise and socialise leash-free with other dogs and dog park visitors.
Dog off-leash areas can include facilities such as seating, water, dog waste bins/litter bag dispensers and some shaded areas.
Dog owners' obligations when attending off leash areas, you must ensure your
- dog is under your control. (for example, your dog will return to you when called)
- dog is not a nuisance to other dogs and their owners.
- dog's droppings are disposed of in the bins provided.
- dog is registered with Council, wormed regularly, and its vaccinations are up to date.

Council has recently installed separate play areas for small dogs and big dogs at the following dog parks: Neptune St in Maryborough, Petersen Rd in Craignish, Brendan Hansen Park in Granville, Blaxland Rd and Julie-Anne St in Urraween.
