ORLANDO, Fla. — Orlando leaders will open the city’s first off-leash dog park on Thursday.

The park is part of Constitution Green, which the Orlando City Council voted to make more dog-friendly in May.

A drinking fountain for dogs was installed along with an off-leash, fenced dog park.

The grand opening ceremony for the park, located in the area of Summerlin and Jackson avenues, will begin at 6 p.m.
