Bundeena is a 1/1/2 hour drive from us at least.. the other side of Sydney Royal National Park. In Pittwater and most of Sydney dogs are no go. Places like Bundeena central coast, south coast are not really part of the Sydney metro area. Signs are everywhere and if we took our dog on the beach it is a heavy fine. I could travel 1 hour to the central coast and take Molly on the beach. It is drive on the freeway and not really what you would do just to take your dog on the beach. I am o.k. with…

For some reason she does not like water anyway. I have lived in Sydney all my life it is a large city and there are rules by councils. We have a resue lady on the beaches who was forced to move elsewhere because of the number of animals she had.She is still living in the area but in a different zone which is rural. Thanks for your concern as to finding somewhere to take her but like I said it is not a real problem just a comment I made earlier in this discussion.

This probably won't help very much however when we were in Aus last year we stayed in Bundeena at a most amazing Boathouse on the beach and it was definitely a dog friendly beach. We used to see people bbqing on the beach and dogs offlead were helping out. Waiting on a response from family as to where they go.

I live on Sydney's northern beaches in the LGA of Pittwater. Some residents here complain just about anything and having a number of dogs and cats is a constant one. Pittwater does not allow quite alot of things especially dogs on beaches. I am not sure but I think you are from WA which is quite different. Most councils in Sydney do implement their own by-laws.I am leaving this discussion where it is.

<p>I was of the understanding that there is no limit to dog numbers accross the whole state of NSW. There are attempts at restrictions in certain areas but no one council can overrule the statewide but the Companion Animals Act states there is no limit.</p>

<p>from an australian dog forum:</p>
<blockquote><p>In NSW there is no limit. In having said that however, each and every Council can suggest their own limits and implement local by-laws. Most don't do this. <br></br><br></br>In NSW,…</p>

<p>Hi Viv,</p>
<p>i would rather snakes than gangs of thugs. snakes do not try and hurt you only if they are being attacked. remember you do have the adder snake in the uk. we keep snakes as pets lovely to hold. also no such thing as a yellow belly black they are the dark green tree snake. some of the copper heads are a little yellow on the under side as well. just respect them and be careful with your dogs around creeks etc. afraid dogs/cats and snake do not mix well.</p>

<p>Our beaches are great but we live in Sydney and no go with dogs... Every council does not allow them. The central coast have some but that is not Sydney. We live on the northern beaches. Unless you are a breeder we also have strict dog rules regarding how many dogs you can own</p>

<p>Eunice i am surprised to hear you do not have many dog beaches in NSW - I am not sure where you are but I have friends with weimaraners who are always at their local dog beach.</p>
<p>NSW is the most dog friendly of all with their blanket rule dog laws - WA makes it very difficult to own more than two in many council areas.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Our beaches are amazing though!</p>

<p>thanks... yes Pittwater is beautiful. I love London been 3 times not again for while though saving the dollars...</p>
<p>Turramurra is on the north shore of Sydney and about as you would be aware around 40 minutes from the northern beaches. I would like to know where they take their dogs though.</p>

Hi Eunice how frightening for you to find a snake in the garden. We have family in Turramurra with 2 x16 month old spoodles not sure where they excercise them but I know they go to a nearby beach as well as the Oval in Turramurra's Eastern Road. I'll try to find the name of the beach for you, Pittwater is beautiful we had a drive up there when we were over last year, I love Sydney and always have difficulty in staying away.

thanks Perth is such a great city. Sydney has a couple of pet friendly accommodation where we took Molly just after purchasing her near Centinental Park. I guess that is the difference but there are some dog parks but I do not like them. Leach free area near Pittwater where we live but that has got smaller in area. Oh well guess I live with it. Thanks for the info.
