If you’re a dog lover like I am, you don’t consider a move without contemplating neighborhood amenities for
your dog. In my considerations for a move recently, I had a bit of a time trying to locate most of the off-leash dog parks in the twin cities metro area. After collecting some information I’d thought I’d share.
Remember that some of these parks require passes, dog licensure and all have rules so be sure to do your research! Most cities have some kind of requirements but here are Saint Paul and Minneapolis dog requirements:
Minneapolis:
- Purchase Off-Leash Permit Online
- Print 2011 Off-Leash Permit Application
- Get your dog licensed through the City of Minneapolis
- Off-Leash Info Sheet
Saint Paul:
- Leash Law Brochure
- Safety Tips and Etiquette
- Dog Off-Leash Citation Procedures
- Complaint Process Sample
Many of the links to the dog parks will take you to the pages that also have outlined the rules and regulations.
Bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, layout, schools. . . There are so many things to remember to consider when moving. Just don’t forget the considerations of all of your loved ones. :)

P.S. If I have omitted an off-leash dog park that you know of, please let me know about it in the comment box below so I can be sure to add it!
