Upcoming Events & Sign-Ups

Edited

Our events give shelter pets the chance to shine outside the kennel and connect with potential adopters in the community. From adoption events to outreach opportunities, these gatherings help our animals gain visibility, build confidence, and sometimes even find their forever homes.

If you’re interested in participating, you can sign up to bring your foster pet, handle a shelter dog, or help our team set up and run the event. Each event listing below will include quick details along with links to register.

Bring Your Foster to an Event
If you’d like to bring your foster pet to an upcoming event, please complete the Foster Event Sign Up so staff can review your foster’s readiness and help ensure a great experience for both the pet and the public.

Bring a Shelter Pet to the Event
Volunteers can help showcase shelter pets by bringing a dog to the event and helping them meet potential adopters. If you’re interested in handling a shelter pet for an event, this is the opportunity for you!

Help With Event Setup & Support
Events run best with extra hands! Volunteers are needed to help with setup, greeting guests, assisting with pets, and packing up after the event. Sign up below if you’d like to support the team.

Events are a great way to support the shelter, meet fellow volunteers and fosters, and give our pets valuable experiences that make them even more adoptable.
