Your Council knows very well that Arrowsmith Park is next to a busy road and is unsafe for dogs and their owners. Why is the Council so mean for many years and not putting a proper and safe off-leash dog park in the Penshurst area? Arrowsmith Park is a hazard.
Inside Olds Park, there is already a lot of netball courts. Why can’t you turn one-third of the grassed land next to Queensbury Road into a fenced, off-leashed dog park?
Or, the land next to the bowling club car park. There are a lot of trees and the land is not being used. All you have to do is put a fence around.
A lot of people have dogs and they go to Olds Park to walk their dogs. It is not fair for Council to NOT put a small area for dogs to run around. I’m sure you’ll find some area for dogs to run around.
Please consider my suggestions to give the dogs a fair go. Dogs are our friends, our mates and companions. I strongly request the Council to treat the dogs fairly. A lot of dog owners wish there is an off-leash area for their dogs to run around.
I wrote an email to Georges River Council to complain that this park is dangerous to dogs and owners. I also made a suggestion that a small section of Olds Park (Penshurst) which backs onto Queensbury Road be made into an off-leash dog park. It will be safer and easier to find parking.
Please write to Georges River Council to request the same park for your lovely dogs.
It’s not fenced in and right next to two very busy roads and the railway so it’s definitely not an off leash park for dogs that are still developing recall. Parking is also difficult. You have to park on the side streets and walk back across. There isn’t any dog water stations and the taps are hard to find. The park itself is a decent size though with some trees. One end of the park is quite sloped so if you are bringing prams or wheelchairs, it is difficult to get around. Also there was a lot of litter around the park and dumped trolleys so if your dog tends to pick up things from the ground to eat, this probably isn’t the park for you.
