Dog Friendly Parks in Minneapolis St. Paul

Minneapolis is the Midwest’s star metropolis, beloved for its many lakes, its four-seasons climate, and the warm welcome it extends to pets. Forbes lists Minneapolis as one of the best cities in the country for dog lovers. With roomy dog parks, hundreds of dog-friendly dining options, and stores that welcome your 4-legged friends, it’s only natural that the “City of Lakes” is also a great city for dogs.

A day at the dog park is like a dozen walks on a leash in terms of physical and mental benefits for your pet. They get to run around and play with other dogs to their heart’s content. It keeps their weight down, their muscle tone up. It keeps them social.

By following the right dog park etiquette, you can make this a fun experience for your pooch and all their playmates. Pick up after them. Make sure they are vaccinated. Dogs in heat should be left home. Don't bring food into the park. No little kids. Keep your leash with you. While you can bring your own dog toys like tennis balls or Frisbees, make sure that no other dogs will be fighting over them.

So, get out there and treat your pooch to a visit to one of these dog friendly parks:
