Samuel Brown
★★★★★“Went to Thomas oval dog park (small dogs area) for a Chihuahua meet up and it worked really well for my dogs and others there. The space felt safe, dogs were socialised, and there was great chats with other owners. Good open area with sandpit, seating, trees and shade, plenty of water!”

★★★★☆“Great facilities, but can be a bit of a mud pit. Plenty for the dogs to do, decent sandpit and space to run. Quiet area for dogs will prefer a gentle play.”
Lina FIORI
★★★★★“Great location. Safely fenced off for small dogs. Unfortunately very little shade for people or dogs from the searing hot sun. * more shade would be greatly appreciated. 🙏”

★★★★★“Had some time waiting around, found this park, it is fantastic my 6 month old Charlie had a ball, he met up with Biscuit in the quiet area and did not want to leave. Next time in Melbourne will certainly go there again. Ballarat Council could learn from this great set up.”
Jess Kate Ford
★★★★★“Best dog park in the area. Fully fenced, two different areas for active and small dogs. We go here multiple times a week.”
