OFF LEASH PARKS IN THE WOOLLAHRA AREA Taking your dog to an off leash area is a great way to keep them fit, healthy and socialised. Whether you want your dog to have a run off leash, or a swim, Woollahra local area has plenty of places you can enjoy together. There are four parks and reserves in the local area which are designated off leash areas 24 hours a day – meaning you can play all day. There’s also another seven parks and reserves with timed off leash areas.

OFF LEASH ETIQUETTE

• Only let your dog off lead in a designated off leash exercise area. • Pick up and bin your dog poo. • You must be able to demonstrate effective voice control of your dog and keep in close proximity and within their sight at all times. • Stay alert and keep a close eye on your dog. Sometimes large groups of dogs can cause them to be over-excited and this may lead to possible antisocial behaviour. • Ensure your dog’s vaccinations, worming and flea treatments are all up-to-date. • Always ask the owner of unknown dogs if your dog can go up and play, or if you can approach their dog.

YARRANABBE PARK

Dogs are allowed off leash at all times at Yarranabbe Park, but in the adjacent Rushcutters Bay Park dogs are only allowed off leash before 10:30am and after 3:30pm.

ROSE BAY FORESHORE

Dogs are allowed off leash all day on the Rose Bay Foreshore between Dumaresq Reserve and Percival Park – making this the perfect spot for cooling down together on warmer days.

LIGHTHOUSE RESERVE

Take your dog for an off leash walk or run through Lighthouse Reserve and enjoy the epic views of the coastline and Macquarie Lighthouse. Solar powered lighting illuminates the walking path at night, making this a good choice after dark.

Rose Bay Foreshore

Dogs are allowed off leash at all times at Lighthouse Reserve, but in the adjacent Christison Park they are only permitted off leash before 10:30am and after 3:30pm.

ACTIVE AGING

Active aging is about staying engaged and feeling worthwhile. It adds years to people's lives and quality to those years.

Gone is the idea of retirement from life and doing nothing but "taking it easy". Instead people are encouraged to stay active, participate in life and continue to be productive. Home Sweet Home Nursing Care provides care and support to allow older adults to gain or uphold personal resilience, independence and autonomy, whilst maintaining social roles, activities and relationships enabling them to live a productive lifestyle. Apart from appropriate medical care our role is to empower people to enjoy their later years, and wherever possible allow them to stay in their home environment. “Without hesitation, I highly recommend Home Sweet Home for in-home care

services and will use this excellent company for all my mother’s home care. As experienced nurses, Karen and Marella (the business owners) immediately understand the needs of the client and are able to effectively match the right care-giver to the situation. Furthermore, even when I had not engaged a care-giver, Karen and Marella generously provided their nursing advice and care recommendations to support my mother. What sets them apart from their competitors is their empathetic and knowledgeable care for their clients”.
