Fort Barnard Dog Park Arlington, Va

Good evening, and happy New Year everyone!
----> if anyone was recently at the park, and parked near the downhill entrance, or perhaps lost a key in that area, I have put it on the bulletin board. It's on my business card, David's Dog Training. Please replace the push pin in my card, when you get your key.
Thanks All!

~~~ A scattering of ashes returning oneness with the ground, symbolic as the soul returns oneness with eternity ~~~
Looking for good friends of Rose ...
If your name is on this list, or you are a good friend of Rose from the more recent years, please respond here with interest to share in the scattering of her ashes at one of her favorite places to be on the earth, the Fort Barnard dog park.
If you just happened upon this posting, but are a friend from the older, Shirlington days, please post here as well, or on the next door app post. There will be a separate scattering for the original crew at Shirlington... I look finally to her new friends at Ft Barnard dog park

If you use the umbrellas, please roll them up when you're done and tie them firmly, or ask somebody else who will remain after you if they can take care of it. If not, the wind is likely to tear them apart quickly.
Also, filling the water bowls past half full is usually unnecessary, as they almost always get fouled long before any dog drinks a full bowl.
Thanks for all!

To the kind lady with the gray pitty, who warned us at Ft Barnard dog park, on our way in, as to the biting flies, you were soo right! Rose had as many as 8 on her at any given time!
I was there a couple of days ago, and there were several near the first table, but as I moved away, there were no more.
Not so today. BY the time I got to the 3rd table, I was getting more fly bites at each stop!

Whoever took my my bungee cord off of the gate at Fort Barnard dog park, in order to put it on a second umbrella, maybe come back and do it again with your bungee cord. Mine is back on the gate where it should stay, so that the gate doesn't stay open and let dogs escape out into the street. Yes there are two gates, at both entrances. This is, as in most dog parks, so that one will always be closed. Thank you.

Hi Fort Barnard dog park fans!
The leg/ base of one of the picnic tables has been broken for some time. If I could get a donation of two radiator clamps, about 2 ½ to 3 in, I can fix it. I already have all the material and tools that I otherwise need. Thanks!
