Terrific park!
A whimsical fountain paying tribute to Mount Vernon's four-legged friends, including a Great Dane puppy, a Bernese Mountain Dog, a giant Schnauzer, and a Golden Retriever, all spitting spurts of water. But dogs aren’t the only creatures you’ll find here—keep an eye out for the cat, plus a pony.
The dogs all have their eyes fixed on the giant golden bone in the center of the fountain. Meanwhile, a cat stares off into the distance, its gazed fixed on two bird sculptures perched on a nearby lamppost.
Plenty of benches plus picnic tables adorn the brick plaza. Rules are posted on signs. Bring your picnic lunch, drinking fountain for people and dogs.
