Attorney General

From the office of the DC Office of the Attorney General (OAG):

“Attorney General Brian L. Schwalb today announced that District Dogs, a dog daycare, boarding, and grooming business, will be required to make safety and emergency preparedness improvements at all of its DC locations, as well as pay $100,000, in connection with a 2023 flood at one of its facilities that resulted in the death of 10 dogs.

As part of a settlement agreement resolving OAG’s investigation, District Dogs will develop and implement comprehensive emergency response and evacuation procedures for each of its DC locations, train all DC staff on emergency response procedures, obtain risk management certification, and keep its Rhode Island Ave location permanently closed.
