Come join us for a Post Turkey Pack Trot on Sunday, November 30th at 10am! We will all benefit from some outdoor time and since our park is still closed - we will combine a little pack walk with some park play time.

Please let us know if you plan on joining and meet us at the grass area near the bridge. Lots of free parking is available near the dog park or on the street. And remember, dogs must be on leash for the trail trot part of the pack walk!

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!

Join us for a fall pack walk to explore the National Arboretum and meet some park pals! We’ll meet at the parking lot closest to the National Grove of State Trees Picnic Area.

After getting some steps in, we’ll head over to Atlas Brew Works Ivy City to say a farewell cheers to a beloved dog-friendly business - don’t worry, they are just moving to a bigger space in the Bridge District.

Dogs must remain leashed at all times. All are welcome to join, so feel free to bring a friend or make a new one!

Send us a message if you plan to join - we hope to see you there!

THE DAY HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! Our park renovation project will begin on Tuesday, September 16th and last through December (date tbd). While we are disappointed to not see our park pals every day / week at the park, we will be hosting place walks and other fun activities while we wait for our brand new park! And please check out the link in our bio for dog friendly places to take your pup while the park is closed.

In advance of our upcoming park renovation project, Kingsman Bark has created a list of dog friendly places that you can take your pup (link can be found in our bio). These include other dog parks, hikes, wineries & breweries, restaurant, etc. in the neighborhood and surrounding DMV area! We will also be planning pack walks and other activities while the park is closed - stay tuned for more details soon.

We know everyone is anxiously awaiting the start of the project. The city and its contractor have entered into the permitting phase and, depending on how long that takes, they are currently expecting construction to start this month and continue through December 2025. In addition to the dog park being closed, a majority of the field will be closed during construction.

We’ll keep you posted as soon as we get any further updates from the city!

With the delay in our park project until summer, we need your help with our first spring cleaning on Saturday, 5/3 at 10am. With several helping hands and paws, it should be a breeze! We will do some weeding, rake some gravel, and ensure the park is at its best as we move further into spring. Thank you in advance for your ongoing support!

Cherry blossom season is here! Come join your park pals to celebrate DC’s favorite time of year at yappy hour. As a way to support local organizations in the community, we will be collecting items to bring to the HRA. Please check out their website for items they accept and bring any items you wish to donate to the park and we will make a large drop off on the park’s behalf!

As always, yappy hours are a time for dogs and humans to have some fun but please remember to pay attention to your dog as it can get rowdy and we want the park to be a safe and clean place for all pups to play.
