Everyone with a dog should make themselves aware of the official off-leash areas and ensure in all other places their dog is on a leash.

As a reminder here are the details of off-leash areas and maps are posted below in the comments.

Exclusion of dogs from public places:-
- Within 10 metres of local government playgrounds
- all local government public cemeteries
- CBD areas

Don’t get caught out, leash your dog.

📅 From 1 July 2025 fines have increased.

Keep your dog on a leash in public (unless in an off-leash area) or risk an on-the-spot fine of $834. Be a responsible dog owner by:

🐾 ensuring your dog is on a lead held by someone who can physically control it

🐾 being able to control your dog using voice commands in off-leash area

🐾 ensuring your dog is tethered to a fixed object and is supervised.

⚠️ Owners face fines of up to $116,830 and possible jail time for serious and fatal dog attacks. For more information on changes to Queensland dog laws visit 👉 https://brnw.ch/21wTRhT.

Sadly essential oils and pets don't always mix. Here's what you need to know.
