Pieloch Dog Park — Attraction in Melbourne

The City of Melbourne does not maintain the dog park very well, always overgrown they need to mow more often. That's the whole park too, not just the dog areas. People need to pick up after their dogs. Some people think there better than that, I say, u wipe your self, pick up after your dog, no difference.

The large dogs are always over in the small dog side. My 15 lb dog does not want to socialize with your 80 lb dog. Please USE THE SIDE APPROIATE TO YOUR DOGS SIZE!! It doesn't matter how friendly he is. There are little dogs that are afraid of the big dogs and the little dogs have ever right to have their side, it is 25lbs and under. Please obey the rules of the dog park for everyone's safety!!!.

There is always that person that thinks they are entitled and has no common sense. Beware...

We loved this park until an aggressive dog chased my son (who was playing with our dog as well as other dogs). The owner said my son should not have run from the dog snapping and biting near his face and did nothing to stop it. The owner admitted the dog does not like children! The dog in question apparently has attacked another child. The community at this park believes that my child should sit at the picnic benches to stay away from potentially aggressive dogs, not play with our dog not any others. Don’t go if you have kids, the folks there believe child aggressive dogs have more rights than families with dogs. They seriously suggested my kid should be playing (unsupervised) in the park next door instead of being with me...

So much fun for humans and dogs! There's actually 2 parks: One for small dogs, one for big dogs. Facility is very clean and well groomed. Dogs have plenty of water to drink, balls to catch, and green grass to rub their back on. Also has complimentary doggy poop bags! Everyone is friendly and inviting. I've met so many new friends at the dog park and...shhhh...don't tell my doggy...I think I look forward to going to the dog park more than she does. :)

The busiest times are at 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. I like to go then because there are lots of dogs and there is always a dog that my dog likes to play with. Also as for the humans there is always someone interesting to talk with.

Best dog park...
