Thank you for your interest and feedback. This consultation has concluded.

Creating a culture of responsible pet ownership together.

The City of Unley is developing a new Animal Management Plan (AMP) that focuses on our City embracing responsible pet ownership. This Plan focuses on the management of dogs and cats; however, it also covers the management of other animals that Council deals with such as bees, poultry, roosters, birds and other pets.

We are interested in hearing your thoughts on several topics including:

  • dog off-leash restrictions in parks
  • responsible dog and cat ownership
  • park safety concerns
  • park usage opportunities, and
  • concerns with other animals.

Your feedback will help draft the Animal Management Plan and guide the direction of animal management in the City of Unley over the next five years.

    CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

    We’d like to extend our thanks to all community members who took the time to complete the Animal Management Plan Survey earlier this year. Your input has been invaluable in helping Council better understand local needs and expectations around dog and cat management.

    On 29 September 2025, Council Members attended a workshop to receive an update on the Animal Management Plan, review a summary of community engagement outcomes, and discuss anticipated changes to State legislation.

    Community feedback, along with these legislative updates and guidance from Elected Members, will shape the development of the new Animal Management Plan. A draft Plan is expected to be released for community consultation in early 2026.

    A copy of the Animal Management Plan Summary of Engagement is in the Documents section of this project page.
