Dudley Reserve is a dog-friendly park in Lidcombe where dogs are welcome on lead.
Dogs are permitted on-leash under the NSW Companion Animals Act. Cumberland City Council's Companion Animals Policy states dogs must be under effective control and on a leash in all public places except designated off-leash parks. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of playgrounds, food preparation areas, sports fields, school grounds, and wildlife protection areas. This venue is not a designated off-leash park.

Great little fully gated playground on the main Vaughan street. Has some cool sensory play sections for the littlies. Due to the recent wet weather and the design of having woodchips laid on the playground, there are some mushrooms growing throughout, just make sure to keep an eye on young ones not to touch mushrooms.
No sun cover despite being newly upgrade - this should be mandatory. Wild that this wasn’t included. Poisonous mushrooms found at playground today. New playground is average at best (especially compared to other local parks elsewhere).
We check council regulations, official sources, and community reviews to verify dog access at every venue. Access may change — always check on-site signage. Something wrong or missing? Submit feedback. How it works.
