Upcoming Events
Walking Buddies
Trainer-Guided Group Walks
Select Saturdays available through December. Find them HERE.
$50 per session
Does your dog have great manners at home but forget everything the moment you head out for a walk? New sights, sounds, smells, and distractions can be challenging—for both dogs and their people.
Walking Buddies is a trainer-guided group walk designed to help you and your dog practice real-world walking skills in a supportive environment. Join one of Napa Humane’s professional trainers as you explore different parks throughout Napa County while receiving real-time coaching to help build confidence, strengthen your bond, and reinforce polite walking skills.
Whether you’re looking to improve your dog’s manners in new environments or simply want extra guidance without the cost of a private training session, Walking Buddies offers a fun and supportive way to practice together.
Please note: Walking Buddies is intended for dogs who are comfortable around other dogs and people. It is not designed for dogs with leash reactivity. All dogs must remain on leash throughout the session.
In the event of extreme weather, participants will be notified of a new location or rescheduled date.

Tricks & Treats Party

📍 Napa Humane Pet Education Center, 3285 Old California Way

Each participating dog should bring a bag of their favorite treats for our Treat Trades.
Space in each time slot is limited, so advance registration is encouraged.
Bring your dog to the Napa Humane Pet Education Center for an afternoon of games, treats, enrichment activities, and plenty of opportunities to have fun together.
We’ve designed the event with dogs in mind, with small groups of just 4–6 dogs at a time so everyone has room to explore and enjoy the activities. We’ll also offer a special time slot for dogs who need a little more space from other dogs (3-3:30pm). Simply select the appropriate time when registering.

Costumes are completely optional! If your pup enjoys dressing up, we’d love to see their Halloween look. Please choose something safe and comfortable. If costumes aren’t their thing, let them come as they are. They’ll have just as much fun!
