Toners Lane Dog Park

Toners Lane Dog Park is an off-lead space at Toners Lane Reserve in Morwell, identified in Latrobe City Council planning as a priority fenced dog park for the town. It gives local dogs a large open area to run and socialise, with the reserve setting keeping it low-key rather than a destination park.

The rules. Standard Latrobe City requirements apply: dogs must be registered and microchipped if over six months, kept under effective voice control even when off-lead, and cleaned up after. Because the fencing and gate arrangements have been rolled out in stages, confirm the current fenced status with Latrobe City before you rely on it for an escape-prone dog, and check the gates yourself on arrival.

What's there. The design brief includes secure perimeter fencing with double-entry safety gates, mature trees for shade, bench seating and a nearby water connection. Bins and bags are typically provided, but bring your own just in case.

Getting there. The reserve is on Toners Lane, reachable by car via the Princes Highway, with on-site parking. It connects to the local pedestrian path network, so nearby residents can walk in.

It is generally busiest on Sunday mornings and weekday evenings after work. For a nervous dog, aim for a weekday mid-morning when the space is quiet. Bring water on warm days and confirm current facilities with the council if in doubt.
