Every 11th & Bark dog is a good dog. That is why Santa is stopping by to take photos with our dogs on Sunday, December 3rd from 12pm – 3pm. This year, he’ll be joining us at a great new location—the Queen’s English patio.
HOW TO SIGN UP:
Please sign-up for one slot per person/dog so that we can ensure space for others too.
We recommend that you sign-up for a spot ahead of time, but if all the spots are taken, you should stop by anyway. We will accept walk-ups, time permitting. In past years, we have been able to take most—if not all—walk ins.
WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARRIVE:
Please check in when you arrive. You will receive a number so we can link your photo with your registration and contact information. We will e-mail you your photos after the event.
SUGGESTED DONATION TO THE PARK
A $10 tax-deductible donation to 11th & Bark for dog park maintenance is suggested. Contactless donations via Venmo ahead of time are very much preferred and appreciated. Please reference "Santa Photos with Dogs" so we can keep track of the donations. You can also donate at the event via cash or Venmo.
DONATIONS FOR THE WASHINGTON HUMANE RESCUE ALLIANCE.
We will again accept in-kind donation for the WHRA. They currently accept ”donations of machine washable towels and blankets in good condition; unopened, nonprescription food and treats; new or gently used dog and cat toys; medium, large, extra-large foldable wire crates with pans; cat litter; puppy pads; and many other quality goods.” They do not accept “clothing (human or animal), fitted sheets, pillows, down comforters, newspaper, stuffed or memory foam dog beds or pillows, retractable leashes, prescription pet food.” See also their Amazon “Dog Supplies” list for more ideas or if you want to purchase items through Amazon and have shipped to them directly).
You can also donate unexpired dry dog/cat food in unopened bags of any size and unopened, unexpired canned dog/cat food for Alliance's Pet Pantry Program. The Pet Pantry program was created to support DC residents in caring for their pets by providing free pet food to those who indicate need. The food distributed is intended to supplement the pet's monthly food needs and to reduce the financial burden associated with pet care.
