Longer days and warmer weather make it more tempting to stay at the bar for another drink. Having a dog at home that needs food, water, and a walk can put a cramp in your style. Luckily, several DC bars offer dog-friendly happy hours so you can spend quality time with your friends, food, and Fido all at once.
On Mondays at Cantina Marina, dogs are allowed on the Southwest waterfront restaurant's colorful patio. There’s a complimentary milk bone and dog treat buffet for the canines. For owners, there are $2 hot dogs, chili dogs, and corn dogs as well as $2 bottles of Dos Equis, Corona, and Miller Lite. Cantina Marina's first doggie happy hour this season is May 14. There ’s no set time, but it's best to show up between 5 and 7 p.m.
Union Pub's "Pooches on the Patio" starts at the end of this month. The Capitol Hill hangout has an outdoor patio where dogs join owners Saturdays or Sundays noon to 4 (though manager Larry Graham says the day hasn't been settled yet). Last year's happy hours included Blue Moon drink specials and dog cookies available for purchase. Worried that bringing Rover will keep you from watching the Sox? There are TVs on the patio as well as inside.
Starting June 6, Wednesdays at the Helix Lounge in Dupont are the "Dog Days of Summer." Dogs are welcome on the patio and specialty cocktails like "Pet Peeve" and "Pooch Hooch" are served—for people, not dogs. There are no discounts, but a portion of the proceeds goes to the Washington Humane Society. The Society also brings in a dog that is up for adoption to the lounge every Wednesday to mingle with the crowd.
Be advised that some spots no long offer time for drinks and dogs. St.Elmo's Coffee Pub and the Old Town Hotel, both in Alexandria, have canceled their dog-friendly happy hours. Old Town Hotel does plan to re-open to dogs in the fall when its renovations are complete.

Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

It’s my belief that mesothelioma is actually the most fatal cancer. It has unusual properties. The more I look at it the more I am confident it does not react like a true solid flesh cancer. In case mesothelioma is usually a rogue virus-like infection, then there is the probability of developing a vaccine as well as offering vaccination for asbestos uncovered people who are open to high risk of developing long run asbestos connected malignancies. Thanks for giving your ideas on this important health issue.
Howdy! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site before but after browsing through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely glad I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back frequently!

Thanks for the ideas you discuss through this website. In addition, several young women who seem to become pregnant never even aim to get health care insurance because they dread they couldn’t qualify. Although some states right now require that insurers present coverage no matter the pre-existing conditions. Fees on most of these guaranteed options are usually greater, but when with the high cost of medical care it may be some sort of a safer way to go to protect one’s financial future.

Thanks for expressing your ideas with this blog. Likewise, a misconception regarding the financial institutions intentions if talking about property foreclosure is that the bank will not have my repayments. There is a fair bit of time in which the bank requires payments every now and then. If you are very deep within the hole, they may commonly demand that you pay the actual payment 100 %. However, i am not saying that they will have any sort of repayments at all. Should you and the loan company can seem to work one thing out, the particular foreclosure procedure may cease. However, when you continue to pass up payments in the new strategy, the property foreclosure process can pick up exactly where it left off.

With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help prevent content from being ripped off? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
Undeniably believe that which you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the internet the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people consider worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

Unquestionably imagine that which you stated. Your favourite reason seemed to be at the internet the easiest factor to consider of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while other folks think about concerns that they plainly do not recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as neatly as defined out the whole thing without having side effect , other people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

Greetings! Unfortunately, most dog walkers discover a danger, only sadly, when victimized. And so I wanted to inform you of StreetZaps.com. And so you are aware, I confer with Con Edison’s Stray Voltage and Public Affairs Units and contribute to Wet Nose Guide and New York Dog Chat. Thank you.
WHY URBAN METAL ISN’T PRECIOUS- Blair Sorrel, Founder, www.StreetZaps.com
Of course, you want a worry-free walk year-round, so adopt this simple strategy:
EYEBALL THE BLOCK, AVOID A SHOCK.
Take just a few seconds to survey the immediate surroundings and make your trajectory toward a non-conductive surface, ie., plastic, wood, cardboard, rather than risking any metal or electrical fixture. The lowly, free-standing garbage bag, is you and your dog’s best friend, most of the time, unless it’s snowed and salted. Then you might contemplate indoor products. Consider the safer, hardware-free RopeNGo leash and harness to help shield against a possible zapping and for greater peace of mind.
CONTACT VOLTAGE DOESN’T DISCRIMINATE BY GENDER.
Your pooch’s sex is irrelevant. True, the most gruesome scenario is that of a male dog electrocuted by its own urine. Our poster girl sidled a hydrant and limped for five days.Intuit your dog’s cues, if resistant to an area, choose an alternative route. Elude potentially live work areas or carry your canine, if necessary. Opt for indoor products such as The Pet Loo, Hammacher Schlemmer’s Indoor Restroom, or Wee-Wee Pads, if external conditions are ominous. Dog booties can leak and make your pooch even more vulnerable.
ARE YOU PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH YOUR DOG?
Any of these fixtures might be dangerous, so again, choose non-conductive where and when possible. (link to home page fixtures listed below and/or the visuals page):
View All StreetZaps’ Home Page & Safety Images
– Street & Traffic Lights can leak if damaged internally, even if the compartment is fully closed and the light is not illuminated
– While wooden blocks anchor Scaffolding or Sidewalk Sheds, be aware that sloppy wiring by a contractor and/or the use of lighting equipment which is NOT WATER-PROOFED or even suitable for outdoor usage, may still shock a passerby.
– ATM Vestibules
– Decorative Lighting
– Dog Booties may increase
the risk of a shock
- Electrical Boxes
– Fire Hydrants
– Fire Police Call Boxes
– Manhole Covers
– Muni Meters
– Phone Booths
– Service Boxes
– Street Light Boxes
– Traffic Boxes
– Work Areas
After all, why chance it when there’s a choice?
BETWEEN YOU, ME, AND THE LAMPPOST.
Tampered equipment can become pernicious so please map (Report Form) damaged fixtures and known hot spots to admonish other pedestrians and alert the utility and transportation department.
