Dog-friendly coffee morning

A dog-friendly coffee morning is a simple, joyful way to bring people together and support Dogs for Good at the same time. With drinks, cakes and wagging tails, it creates a warm, welcoming space where everyone feels part of something positive.

Ideas and inspiration


You can host your coffee morning anywhere that feels comfortable - your home, a community hall, a café courtyard or even your workplace. Set up a table with homemade cakes, biscuits or savoury nibbles, add a tea and coffee station, and invite people to drop in throughout the morning.

You might want to create a relaxed dog area with blankets and water bowls where dogs can settle in between greetings.

Adding a few simple touches can help bring the event to life, from a “guess the number of treats in the jar” game to a mini bake-off featuring dog-safe goodies.

You could also include a quiet corner where people can read more about our work, meet a volunteer speaker, or see photos of the dogs whose journeys they’re helping to support. However you shape it, it’s a lovely way to bring people together and celebrate the joy dogs bring to everyday life.
