About the Park:
Langdon Park is one of the largest parks in the entire District. Members of the Association would aver that it is a rare block in our neighborhoods that does not have numerous dogs kept as pets. The Dog Park provides a convenient and accessible place for these many dog-owning neighbors to meet, build relationships, and strengthen their communities. Furthermore, the Association aids in the prevention of cruelty to animals by providing a safe, convenient, and regulated space where dog owners may take their dogs and learn more about how to be good owners. It is widely accepted that relationships between dogs and their owners work best when the animals are allowed sufficient exercise. In an urban area, dog owners often find that personal or community residential space is not accommodating enough or appropriate to adequately exercise animals. The Langdon Dog Park itself provides ample space for exercising and socializing dogs. The Association's members are committed to good dog ownership, and thereby provide a model for others who have not yet made that commitment. The Directors of the Association seek to develop programs to be held in the Park that will create opportunities for community members to become better dog owners.
