About Jinna Road Reserve
Dog Rules at Jinna Road Reserve
Jinna Road Reserve allows dogs only on a leash, and the leash must stay on at all times. Dogs may use the formed tracks, pathways and roads inside the reserve but not the other parts of it. Jinna Road Reserve has no off-leash area, so owners who want their dog to run free need one of the council's designated off-leash parks instead. Council rangers and authorised officers can seize and remove a dog found off its leash in the reserve, and the owner can be fined.
