They are not allowed in any reserve in NSW as far as I am aware. Every entrance has a clear no dogs sign but people ignore them. 

That is the whole point of a nature reserve they are not similar to state forests at all which are run by the Forestry Corporation. 

Reserves are managed by NSW NPWS.

I am local to rumbalara and see lyrebirds wallabies and echidnas and many other awesome animals daily in there so it frustrates me seeing dogs in there. They also bait it with 1080 so the dog is toast if it gets off leash.

I have seen an increase since the apartments going up nearby and people can't be bothered to drive their dog to the park so they take it into the reserve

Forest walk is better with your dog off lead though. There are some serious drops on the waterfall trails. But yep great place for the dogs! Just watch out for leeches.
