Dog rules

Under the Companion Animals Act 1998, dogs must be on-leash at all times in all parks and public places. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's playground equipment and food preparation areas, from active sports fields during organised sport, public bathing areas, school grounds, and child care centres. Dog faeces must be removed immediately. (Source: The Hills Shire Council — Stay out of the Doghouse, thehills.nsw.gov.au.)

While waiting for my wife at the physio nearby and I went for a walk around The Strangers Creek Park. It was a casual 20 minute walk. It was near sunset and the walk around the park was beautiful. There is a walkway all around the water and it is very nice with the ducks in it. There are cafes and restaurants located around the water too. It is not far from the metro station.

Beautiful park to walk around. It is also surrounded by/close to shops and cafes, and is within a 10 minute walk of Norwest Metro Station!
