Council maintains more than 160 dog off-leash areas in parks across Brisbane.
Dog parks offer a safe space for dogs to run, play and burn off excess energy.
Most off-leash dog parks are fully fenced and have seating, water, bins and shaded areas. Some also have agility equipment and designated areas for small dogs.
You can also let your dog run free in our designated foreshore areas on the bay.

Visiting off-leash areas
When visiting an off-leash area, it’s your responsibility to ensure your dog is well-behaved. They must also not disrupt or distress other dogs or park users.
- Familiarise yourself with the specific rules and regulations of the off-leash area. These could include leash requirements, designated zones, and any restrictions that apply.
- Keep your dog under control. Watch your dog and respond promptly to any signs of aggression, excessive barking or other unwanted behaviour.
- Clean up after your dog. Dispose of dog waste in the bins provided.
- Ensure your dog doesn’t create a nuisance for other dogs or owners (e.g. don't take big dogs into areas for small dogs).
- Stay up to date with your dog’s registration and vaccinations. This protects their health when they socialise with other dogs.
