We are proud of our Union Veterinary Clinic client and author, Melanie D.G. Kaplan, sharing her story and that of Hammy's!

I showed friends and strangers the ID tattooed inside my beagle's velvety ear: CAICWZ. Most were shocked to learn we still experiment on dogs.

🎃👻 Capitol Hill, you’ve really gone all out this Halloween!
Skeletons on stoops, witches in the windows, ghosts in the trees, and pumpkins everywhere — spooky perfection! 🧙‍♀️💀🎃🐷

We love being part of such a creative (and slightly haunted) neighborhood. But here’s the real question…

It’s finally (hopefully) happening after 3 years, a few late starts, and a lot of wishful thinking by all of our park pals! We will continue to provide updates on timeline for completion as we have them from the city. While the park is closed, be on the lookout for more pack walks and social gatherings and definitely checkout our map of dog friendly spots to try out with your pup!
