Dog owners in Eltham have something to wag about with the recent installation of a new water tap and dog bowl at Taylor Dog Park. The Eltham-Kaponga Community Board has delivered this much-needed amenity, ensuring both park visitors and their furry friends can stay hydrated while enjoying the open spaces.
The project is part of the Community Board’s ongoing commitment to enhancing local parks and making them more user-friendly. “We’re thrilled to continue improving facilities at Taylor Dog Park,” said Karen Cave, Chair of the Eltham-Kaponga Community Board. “This new addition will create a more enjoyable and convenient experience for both people and their pets, reinforcing our dedication to community spaces that everyone can appreciate.”
Completed in December 2024, the new water station is already proving to be a hit with regular parkgoers, offering easy access to fresh water for dogs and their owners. By providing this simple yet practical addition, the Board hopes to encourage health, safety, and comfort for all who visit the park.
The Eltham-Kaponga Community Board recognises the importance of community spaces like Taylor Dog Park and continues to look for opportunities to improve facilities that bring people—and their four-legged companions—together. Whether for a quick stop or a long play session, park users can now enjoy the benefits of this thoughtful upgrade.
