Pet Park

Central Indiana's first pet park is on the campus of the Humane Society of Indianapolis. The park is a place for owners to hang out with their pets in a safe, fenced area. Watch Rover romp through the canine agility course while you and your family relax at picnic tables. You can also hike through 1.5 miles of wooded trails.

How to Join the Humane Society of Indianapolis Pet Park

Bring a copy of your pet’s current vaccination record to the Humane Society of Indianapolis during regular business hours and fill out an application. Be sure that the record has the bordetella/kennel cough, rabies, distemper and parvo vaccinations listed.

You must have proof that your dog is spayed or neutered.

Your pet must be at least 6 months of age.

After you present the above items, you'll receive a key fob to the Pet Park, which allows you to use the park even if the shelter is closed.

Membership Fees

Annual registration* is $50 for your first dog and $30 for each additional.

Daily passes: $5 per dog, per day (available during normal shelter hours)

Replacement key fobs: $15

*Please note that your membership is renewed annually on the date your membership was purchased.

Things to Remember

• Dogs must be supervised 100% of the time and need to be obedient under voice control. If your dog acts aggressively toward another dog, please leash it or exit the park.
• Dogs must be leashed upon entering and exiting the park.
• Please clean up after your dog and yourself before leaving the Pet Park.
• Feel free to bring toys, water dishes, or anything else you may need. Please do not bring glass into the park. Please be cautious when giving treats to your pet, as some dogs may become aggressive.

• Please do not allow anyone who is not on your membership into the park.
• Children under the age of 16 years must be supervised at all times while in the park.
