About this park
Located conveniently next to the CDC on Joint Base Andrews, this fenced-in dog run offers a peaceful retreat for the base community's four-legged residents. While the park is on the smaller side, it is well-maintained and provides enough open space for even 50lb dogs to burn off steam and play comfortably. One of the standout features is the natural shade provided by surrounding trees, making it a viable spot even on warmer days. However, the park is designed primarily for the dogs' activity rather than human comfort; visitors should be prepared for a lack of seating within the enclosure. Despite its size, the park includes interactive elements to keep pups engaged and is known for being a quiet, low-traffic spot where you can often enjoy some one-on-one time with your pet.

Small and usually empty, but with enough room for my dogs to run and plenty of things for them to interact with. Not sure why the dog fountain is outside of the fenced in area.
