You stroll around the grounds, staring up at its towering magnificence. You’ve seen it your whole life on national news reports and in establishing shots on your favorite political dramas, but never before have you laid eyes on it up close. As you stand on your tippy toes, trying to steal a glimpse of the obelisk’s peak, you realize that you’re far more impressed with the Washington Monument than you expected. At 555 feet (and 5 inches), this is the tallest structure in city, a fact that’s plain as day to visitors who take the monument’s elevator to its observation deck. Not only are stunning views of the Reflecting Pool and Lincoln Memorial available from up there, but the entire city is yours to behold.

As you take a moment to appreciate the man whom this monument honors, you feel a sense of patriotism swell within you. You’re forever grateful for our country’s father for founding the Land of the Free, and—thanks to pet-friendly hotels in Washington, D.C. —you’re just as thankful for being able to explore his namesake city with your four-legged friend.

Can you see Washington, D.C. in a day with your pet?

Depending on how ambitious you are and what you’d like to accomplish while in Washington, the city’s small size makes it easy to check many items off your “must see” list in under a day. And although plenty of Washington, D.C. pet-friendly hotels allow you to leave man’s best friend behind while you explore the city, there’s no reason not to take your cuddly companion with you when animals are welcome at so many local attractions. Here are three of the many dog-friendly destinations you can enjoy in a day:
