dog day out
Want to spend a fun-filled day with a furry friend? Come to IndyHumane!
Our Dog Day Out program lets you take one of our adoptable pups on an adventure around town, giving them a much-needed break from the shelter—and giving you a day of doggy companionship you'll never forget!
It's easy to join the fun.
1.
Stop by IndyHumane during our adoption hours.
2.
Look for dogs with the Dog Day Out tag on their kennels, or ask the front desk for a list.
3.
Fill out a Dog Day Out form (can be completed in-person or online).
4.
Pick your new best friend for the day!
5.
Hit the road and explore Indy together!
We'll provide you with an "Adopt Me" leash, a few supplies, and a list of suggested places to visit. Dogs can leave during adoption hours and must return an hour before we close.
Dog Day Out program hours:
monday: closed
tuesday-friday: 12pm - 6pm
saturday-sunday: 12pm - 5pm
FAQ
You must be 18 years or older to take a dog out for the day. If you’re under 18, you can still join in on the fun, but a parent or guardian needs to come along.
Dog Day Out gives our pups a chance to relax and enjoy a break from shelter life. It also helps get them noticed by potential adopters as they explore the community with you! Plus, they come back to the shelter happier and more refreshed, making their stay a little easier.
At the end of your day, feel free to send us some photos of your adventure! You can email them to us or share them directly on Facebook to help showcase your pup and get them one step closer to finding a forever home. If you share them, don’t forget to tag @indyhumane, so that we can repost it!
This program is completely free, but we appreciate even the smallest donation to help IndyHumane continue providing compassionate care for our animals.
Absolutely! If you're interested in a longer getaway for a dog in need, our foster program might be for you. This gives animals a little vacation from the shelter and helps us learn more about their personalities.
No pressure at all—but yes, if you fall in love, you can absolutely adopt your new best friend!
