Leash Up at The LOOPIn celebration of January being Train Your Dog Month, and the City of Fort Lauderdale’s recent adoption to make all parks pet-friendly, we are excited to introduce Leash Up at The LOOP, a free monthly dog assessment and training session on the second Saturday of each month.
Sponsored by Dog Training Elite Broward, each session begins with an individual assessment, during which trainers evaluate your dog’s behavior, social skills, and obedience level.
This personalized approach ensures the training session is tailored to meet your dog’s unique needs.
Following the assessments, participants will join a group training session focusing on practical skills to improve leash manners, reinforce basic commands, and address common challenges like jumping or pulling. The training emphasizes positive reinforcement techniques to help your dog adapt to public spaces, interact politely with other dogs and people, and enjoy their time at Fort Lauderdale’s pet-friendly parks.

ABOUT City of Fort Lauderdale Pet Rules
In November 2024, the City of Fort Lauderdale passed a new rule allowing domestic, non-service dogs in all 110 parks across the city. This initiative allows pets to enjoy more public spaces while ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all visitors.
When visiting Fort Lauderdale parks, please keep the following rules in mind:
- Dogs must be on a leash or tether no longer than six feet.
- Pets must be under the control of an adult owner or handler at all times.
- Pet owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.
- Aggressive pets may be removed from the park by the city.
- Pets cannot create excessive noise that disturbs others.
- All dogs must have current vaccinations and a license.
- Pets are not allowed in athletic fields, courts, playgrounds, water splash pads, swimming areas, beaches, or any body of water unless permitted by law.
Fort Lauderdale also offers a designated Canine Beach, where dogs can play off-leash in certain areas. Dogs must remain leashed in other areas of the beach.
Weekend permits for Canine Beach are available from the onsite ranger for $7 per dog.
By following these rules, we can ensure Fort Lauderdale’s parks remain a welcoming and safe environment for everyone to enjoy.
