The Victorian State Dog Centre at KCC Park consists of 74 acres owned by DOGS Victoria situated at 655 Westernport Hwy, (between Thompson Rd and Hall Rd), Skye.

It includes fenced off-lead areas, a dam for doggy swimming and a large indoor and outdoor areas used for on-lead exercise, obedience and other training, breed conformation shows and dog sport trials and competitions. Off lead dog park rulesThere are also barbecues and picnic tables that DOGS Victoria and Companion Dog Club members can use any time the park is open.

KCC = Kennel Control Council of Victoria, later Victorian Canine Association.

Please remember that unless you are in designated, fenced off-leash areas* or are participating in training or competition, your dog must be kept on a lead at all times at KCC Park.

*Large Fenced Area

The larger fenced area to the south of the Park has for many years been used for lure coursing, followed by herding when that discipline commenced. Clubs representing these activities provided substantial funding, plus manpower, to fence the area, making it more suitable for their sports.

It wasn't long before DOGS Victoria members decided that this space was ideal for safe off-leash exercise for their dogs. It became apparent that some guidelines were needed to make sharing more friendly, and signs were erected. Still the complaints come, so please note the following:

If the ground is obviously being set up or used for either lure coursing or herding, the entire area is out of bounds for all other usage
If a member is already using the area at any other times, please wait until they leave before entering with your own dogs
Please read the conditions of use displayed near the entrances
Please pick up after your dogs, using bags and bins provided
Please be considerate and give others a turn if they are waiting. We suggest 15 minutes is enough, you may be able to come back later after taking a pleasant lead walk around the rest of the Park and resume your free running.

*Smaller Fenced Area

Off lead dog park

Nearby there is a smaller fully fenced space intended for use by toy dogs. These breeds take precedence. However, if the space is not being used, any member may take their dogs in, providing they leave immediately if a member arrives to run small dogs.

These facilities are a great asset for DOGS Victoria members and we wish to ensure maximum usage, which will be made much easier if we humans all care and share and set a good example for our dogs!
