We’d like to contest the ‘Greatest Pug Ever’ tag for Wally. He might be the King of U Street, but our Miley is the Queen of U street.”

Newark Street Dog Park is located at the intersection of 39th and Newark Streets, NW.

From a press release:

“The $400,000 off-leash dog park spans over 10,000 square-feet in two enclosed areas and adheres to DPR’s standards and guidelines. Located on the southeast corner of the existing Newark Park, the new dog park is Americans with Disabilities (ADA) accessible. The community raised $25,000 for amenities in the new dog park.

Built in just four months after months of delay due to council hearings, the dog park boasts environmentally-friendly and sustainable features that include a rain garden with native plants and bio-retentive drain pipe.

Newark Dog Park is the District’s fourth dog park. A fifth dog park adjacent to the Upshur Recreation Center in Ward 4 is expected to be complete in October 2010. Designs for an additional dog park in Ward 5 between 14th Street and Tennessee Avenue, NE are in the works. All dog parks are built through a public-private partnership with DPR and the sponsoring community.”

“Dear PoP,

Mighty Mouse and Sam need your help!

Sam and Mighty Mouse are a loving mom and daughter team. They were living in a nice home but their owner has asthma and it has recently taken a turn for the worse. We are in a dire situation.

Please consider opening up your home and helping us with a permanent home, they currently have a foster but we need to find a place they can settle down and call home– they’ve had a tough time.

They need to stay together — they are mother and daughter and super cuddly, sweetness, with excellent behavior. Both are in great health, up to date on shots, and have been micro-chipped.

Mighty (on left, below) is the kind of little one that will curl up to you and lean against you like a baby with a full-bodied purr. Sam (on right) is mellow, outgoing and really sweet. They love each other and are tightly bonded. Mighty is 2 years old. Sam was a teenage mom and is 2 and a half.

Thanks,
Alexis

“Dear PoP,

I was wondering if you’ve ever posted about cat sitters in the neighborhood. I’m looking for a trustworthy person to check in on my cat while I’m away on vacation.”

Anyone have any recommendations? If so, please say which neighborhoods they’ll visit.

One last reminder to please let me know if you’d be interested in a Goblin People’s Pick Coolest Pet in PoPville 2010 t-shirt or a Claude-Phillipe Editor’s Pick Coolest Pet in PoPville t-shirt. If so be sure to say how many and what size so I can get them priced out. Thanks.
