Puppy Park

Puppy Park is the dedicated off-leash enclosure inside Tucker Family Park at 77 Meadows Cct, Bellbird Park, in the Brentwood Forest estate. It is a small, fully fenced area built specifically for dogs, sitting next to the suburb's main playground and outdoor gym, and it is open around the clock.

The rules. Dogs can run off-leash inside the fenced enclosure. Keep your dog within sight and under voice control, close the gate behind you so the area stays secure, and clean up waste straight away. Remove a dog from the area if it shows aggression toward others.

What's there. The fenced space is about 1,600 square metres, with some shade from trees and basic agility equipment for active dogs. Water stations are sometimes on site, but reliability has not been confirmed, so it is worth bringing your own bowl and water as a backup.

Getting there. The park sits on residential streets in Brentwood Forest, with limited off-street parking nearby. There is no major transit hub in Bellbird Park itself; the nearest larger bus connections are in Springfield Lakes.

When to go. Weekday afternoons, especially Tuesday and Friday morning, tend to be quietest. Weekend afternoons and evenings draw more local dogs. Good for a short, contained outing with a young or small dog rather than a big-dog workout.
