    Don’t forget Denizens in Riverdale Park – super dog-friendly outdoor seating area!

  3. Denizens Brewing Co. in Riverdale Park is also very dog friendly on our patio! We’ve hosted many fundraisers for local shelters and also amplify dogs in need of rescue on our social media regularly. We even have our own dog friendly Instagram page that you can follow! – @DogsofDenizens

    You forgot the Greenbelt park, it has a 6 mile loop and a few much shorter ones and my dogs love it there.
