Handlers must observe the following rules when inside Off-Leash Dog Parks (OLDPs).
- Handlers must individually leash their dogs except when inside a designated OLDP.
- All handlers must possess an Off-Leash Dog Park Permit [PDF] for their dog(s).
- Off-leash dog parks are open during regular park hours of 6 am-10 pm.
- Dogs declared as dangerous animals under city code or potentially dangerous under state statutes may not use OLDPs.
- Dogs in heat may not use OLDPs per City of Minneapolis Ordinances 64.50.
- No more than three dogs per handler permitted at one time.
- Handlers must have their dog(s) under control at all times and may not let their dog(s) out of sight.

In the event of an emergency, aggressive dog or criminal activity, dial 911.
All reports about dog bites and attacks will be reviewed to determine whether the aggressive dog will be declared dangerous under state statue or city ordinance. If such a declaration is made, we will immediately revoke the off-leash permit.
