The dog days of summer are nearly here again, and what better time to bring fido along on you next vacation? Try a Washington DC vacation<\/a> and enjoy a city with so much to offer its pet travelers.\u00a0 Not only do the overwhelming majority of Washington DC hotels <\/a>now allow pets, some properties take it a step further.<\/p>\n

The Hotel Palomar DC<\/a> and its sister branch in Arlington, VA offer high-end amenities to both human and canine guests.\u00a0 The Arlington location hosts a doggie happy hour once a week, check with the hotel for additional details.\u00a0 The Palomar properties are both part of the Kimpton group which has 11 hotels in the DC area, all of which offer pet\u00a0amenities at no additional fee.<\/p>\n

There are numerous places for you and your pooch to get out together in Washington. \u00a0The city has a huge variety of dog parks to explore (check out this\u00a0map<\/a> for locations).\u00a0 Rock Creek Park<\/strong> cuts a green swathe through the city that gives everyone their chance to\u00a0be outdoors.\u00a0 The massive park stretches almost seven miles — double the size of\u00a0New York City<\/a>\u2019s renowned\u00a0Central Park<\/strong>.\u00a0 The\u00a0National Mall<\/strong> is also a great destination for pets.\u00a0 The areas closer to the river are particularly attractive, but \u00a0try to avoid the major monuments and their crowds. And if your pooch needs a day off from sightseeing, there are several dog day care and pet spas in downtown to take advantage of.<\/p>\n
