Leash free areas are designed to allow pet owners to exercise their animals without a leash in an open environment where they are not likely to impact on other recreational area users. Owners must still be able to control their dog outside of the parameters of the off leash exercise areas and must clean up after their animals immediately. While utilising the off leash exercise areas dogs, like humans, don't always get along with each other. Owners must still be in control of their dog to avoid any instance of a dog attack.
Our region has several off leash exercise areas across Armidale and Guyra for the use of dog owners and their pets. All are equipped with appropriate waste disposal including poo bags and water points.
