DOGGY SOCIAL: Howl-o-Ween Pawty at the Playground

ABOUT THE EVENT:
You and your furry best friend are invited to join us for a Halloween Pawty at the Playground!

Join us for 90 minutes of Howl-o-Ween fun, sniffing, exploring, playing, and plenty of room for your dog to run around and simply enjoy being a dog with friends.

Our 1-acre, fenced-in Playground will get a Howl-o-Ween transformation with fun decorations and novelty items for dogs to investigate at their own pace, creating opportunities for exploration and confidence building. We’ll also have enrichment toys, our regular Playground equipment, an enrichment novelty pool for sniffing and searching, and plenty of open space for zoomies, games, and relaxed social time.

And if Mother Nature treats us to a warm October day, we’ll put out the water pools for any pups who still want to make a splash.

Costumes are encouraged for humans and dogs alike! Dress up and join the fun—but please only dress your dog in a costume if they are comfortable wearing one. Dogs are just as welcome to celebrate Howl-o-Ween in their birthday suits!

While your dog plays and explores, you can connect with other dog lovers and enjoy some quality time together. It’s a fun way for your pup to move their body, use their brain, experience something new, build confidence, and enjoy a Howl-o-Ween adventure with their canine and human friends.

Does your dog need a slow introduction to the group? Not to worry. Your dog can begin their adventure in our smaller 1/4-acre enclosed space, where they can watch and observe through the fence. Then, when they’re comfortable and ready, they can join the Pawty.
