Ellenbrook (Westgrove Dr) Fenced Dog Park

The Westgrove Drive fenced dog park is a large, fully gated off-leash area in the residential heart of Ellenbrook, in Perth's northeast. Its selling point is size and separation: distinct secured zones for large and small dogs, so you can match your dog to the right crowd instead of sharing one shared pen.

The dog setup

Inside the high perimeter fencing, dogs run off-leash under effective voice or hand control, with basic agility equipment scattered across open grass. Two things to handle on arrival: make sure the gates latch fully behind you, and bring your own water bottle and bowl, because drinking water is not confirmed on site. That matters more than it sounds in a Perth summer. Seating and some shade are provided for owners, though there are no toilets and the path network is limited, so this is a run-and-watch park rather than a walking loop.

Max: picked the small-dog zone for a warm-up lap, then barged into the big side like he owned the place.

The vibe

This is a community park with an active regular crowd, and they are quick to remind anyone who skips the cleanup rule, so carry bags even if bins are provided. Wednesday evenings are the busiest slot. For quieter runs, weekday mid-mornings and mid-afternoons thin out, and the stretch from Sunday night through Friday morning stays generally calm.

Getting there and parking

The park sits on Westgrove Drive within the Ellenbrook residential area, with accessible parking noted nearby. Locals walk in from the surrounding streets, and drivers from Ellenbrook Central or the Swan Valley side will find it an easy few minutes off the main roads.

Close by with the dogs

Ellenbrook has other fenced runs if this one fills up: Annies Landing Fenced Dog Park is in the same suburb and Aveley Fenced Dog Park is one suburb over. For a coffee afterwards, Dôme Café Ellenbrook is a reliable local stop. See more dog parks in WA or other outings around Ellenbrook.
