Summary

Cape Coral offers several off-leash dog parks for a day of fun for your doggie to roam free. Ensure you check with any park before visiting, as rules and hours may change. Keep your dog’s vaccines current in case you need to show proof, and don’t forget to bring water, just in case. It’s also wise to bring a leash, even to off-leash dog parks, due to leash requirements before entering/exiting the dog parks.
