The sun is out and it’s time to have a ball with your best mate at one of nine local dog parks just waiting to be sniffed out.

Salisbury’s dog-friendly parks make the perfect spots for your furry friend to exercise and socialise off leash in a safe and friendly environment, while you can meet like-minded people.

Council is committed to providing great outdoor spaces for dogs and their owners, with recent additions including a new small dog park at The Paddocks Reserve, which was opened in September last year. Other small dog only zones, created to ensure our littlest four-legged friends feel at home, are located at Happy Home

Reserve, Canterbury Drive and Baltimore Reserve. All dog parks are enclosed and feature exciting obstacles such as tunnels, hoops and ramps as well as the provision of bags, water and bowls. The dog parks are also co-located with other popular facilities including walking trails, sporting equipment and playgrounds.

TOP TIPS FOR KEEPING YOUR DOG SAFE AND HAPPY

Before visiting a dog park, make sure your dog has up to date vaccinations, is microchipped, desexed and registered

It is important to only visit dog parks if you are sure your dog is comfortable around other people/ animals. If your dog is a bit shy, it might be a good idea to try it out during a quieter time

Throw a towel in the car in case your pooch gets muddy

Keep an eye on your dog at times – you never know what might end up in their mouth or when they could get into trouble

Always clean up after your dog using the bags and bins provided.
