What’s the BARKing Lot? On September 20, it’s going to be the most fun pop-up dog park in all of Alexandria. In coordination with the City of Alexandria’s PARKing Day, the AWLA is going to reclaim some barking spaces across from City Hall to host adoptable animals, visit with resident pups and hang out with our mascot Alex Meow. The space will be open to visit with your friendly, leashed pup (no extendable leashes please), and we will host several adoptable dogs throughout the day, as well as our own mascot Alex Meow. Treats will be available for humans and pups, as well as water dishes for canine attendees. Looking for a place to PARK during your workday or dog walk? Visit the AWLA BARKing Lot at 320 King Street, right across the street from City Hall.
