It’s a dog park + bar hybrid, designed for those who think a good drink and a tired dog is a pretty great combo.

🌟 Why Play Wash Pint Stands Out

Play Wash Pint is Chattanooga’s only dog bar and off-leash park, and it’s built with details that make it easy to love. Whether your pup is a zoomie machine or a couch potato who just wants to people-watch, there's a spot here for them.

Unlike public dog parks, Play Wash Pint has trained staff on-site to supervise and gently redirect unruly behavior. This makes it a safer, more relaxed space, especially for first-timers or dogs who need a little confidence boost.

And while your dog burns off energy, you get to relax with a local craft beer, a hard seltzer, or a non-alcoholic beverage from the fully stocked bar.


💬 What Chattanooga Dog Owners Are Saying

What people love:

  • “It’s like doggie daycare meets brewery patio. My dog has a blast, and I get to chill.”

  • “Love the wash stations—no more muddy paw prints in the car.”

  • “Staff is always watching, which makes me feel safer bringing my puppy.”

What to know ahead of time:

  • It can get busy during weekends and nice-weather days—go early for a quieter experience

  • Dogs must be current on vaccinations (Rabies, DHPP, Bordetella)

  • First-timers should bring vet records and expect a quick temperament screening


🐾 Tips for Visiting Play Wash Pint

  • 📋 Register online ahead of time to save time during your first visit

  • 🧼 Try the self-wash station if your dog loves to dig or splash

  • 🐶 Use the small dog section if your pup is under 25 lbs or new to social play

  • 🍻 Sample the taps—they rotate local brews and seasonal drinks often

  • 📸 Take photos—this place has great lighting, design, and happy dogs everywhere


📸 Insta-Worthy and Event Ready

Looking for a place to host a dog birthday party, rescue meetup, or just capture your pup’s happiest self? Play Wash Pint regularly hosts breed-specific playdates, food truck nights, and fun events like "Pints & Paws" and "Doggie Halloween."

It’s one of the most photogenic and community-driven dog destinations in Chattanooga.
