Small Dog Park Oasis Centre

Small Dog Park Oasis Centre in Oonoonba, near South Townsville, is a fully fenced, off-leash park built specifically for small dogs. If you've got a littler dog and want a secure spot for a run without worrying about large dogs, that's the reason to head here.

The rules. The park is fully fenced with a secure perimeter designed to prevent small dogs slipping out. Dogs must be supervised at all times, and you need to clean up immediately after your dog. Bring your own water and waste bags, as neither is guaranteed on-site. It is a shared space, so your dog should be comfortable around other small dogs.

What's there. The surface is mostly grassed, with some natural shade though don't count on much relief during the afternoon sun. Basic seating is often available so you can sit while supervising, but treat that as a bonus rather than a certainty.

Mid-morning between 9 and 11 AM is generally the quietest window. Late afternoon, particularly on weekends, tends to draw the biggest crowd, so if your small dog prefers space, aim earlier in the day.
