Como Park North — Attraction in Melbourne

My dog loves it here, it also is a great sporting ground for local clubs, has a walking track off it that leads towards the Yarra River bike and walking track and Como Park North.

*Only negative thing to be warned is - once in about 2014/2015 I met this older absolutely creepy man who had 2 grey toy poodles that seemed to be drugged lurking around the car park, claiming to be the Myer owners’ personal chauffeur, and telling people his wife had died and it was her anniversary. My dog used to growl in an unexpected way in their presence. He turned out to be a real stalker and possibly dangerous. He drove a nice-looking black chauffeur’s car, and kept trying to approach me in the carpark.

So while this is a nice park, well maintained and with a fence around the edge, you still need to be vigilant when walking dogs here as there's multiple places they...

It's a nice park but a but sketchy to let the dogs off leash at as it's right next to busy Alexandra Parade. I went here every day with my pup for a year and most of the people who go there with their dogs are extremely snooty. If you're dog isn't a tiny little fluffy things, expect some sort of verbal altercation to happen...

Oh and there has also been DOG DEATHS due to aggressive animals, our big scary great dane PUPPY and has been viciously attacked here multiple times. Go to the park across the road, it's much safer and a...
