Introducing the Doggie Daycation Program!! 

Looking to give one of our shelter dogs a fun day out? Our Doggie Daycation program allows approved Palm Beach County residents to spend quality time with a shelter dog outside of the shelter environment! Whether it's a walk on the beach, a pup cup stop, or a relaxing afternoon together, these outings help provide enrichment, socialization, and valuable breaks from shelter life.
