Congressional Cemetery & Dog Park (Washington D.C. (District of Columbia))


Yes, it sounds odd.. but this Cemetery is the biggest and most active Dog Park in the District. At any time of day, between 50 and 100 dogs can be found off-leash at the Congressional Cemetery. Why? A local citizens group started using this as a dog park in order to deter the crime (drug sales) that were going on in the park. Now, there is constant activity and a great place to take your dog.
