Make a huge difference in a shelter dog's life today - donate a doggy playdate session so that he or she can get out of the shelter for some fun!

Activity, stimulation and engagement is so important for a dog's mental health - especially a dog who is in a kennel for the majority of the day. While our amazing dog team does their best to keep our shelter dogs' spirits up while in our care, the more interaction they can have, the better for their overall well-being.

For only $28, one of our shelter dogs can have one of their best days while awaiting adoption...away from the shelter and in a fun, interactive, uplifting environment!

You can select the dog who is in most need of a pIaydate, or choose from one of the dogs listed. Or, if you see another particular dog on our website who you would like to gift the playdate to, you can list their name when you check out and we will do our best to accommodate your request; however, it will depend on if that dog is in foster care and how he or she does with other dogs, so we cannot guarantee any specific dog.

We have partnered with Stay and Play Pet House in Oshkosh for the doggy playdates; check them out here: https://stayandplaypethouse.com/

At Oshkosh Area Humane Society, we are guided by compassion in all we do, from saving the lives of homeless pets by providing the highest quality medical care, nutrition, exercise and socialization in a safe shelter environment, to connecting adopters with their best possible pet match, to reuniting lost pets with their families, to providing behavioral counseling for pet retention, low-cost vaccine and microchip clinics, emergency services and a pet food pantry to keep pets and people happy and healthy together.
