Family fun day with dog-friendly activities

A family fun day is a brilliant way to bring your community together for games, laughter and dog-friendly activities, all while raising funds for Dogs for Good. It’s the kind of event that appeals to all ages and naturally creates moments of joy.

Ideas and inspiration

 

You can host your fun day in a garden, school field, village hall or any open space where families and dogs can move around safely.

Set up simple activity stations like a mini agility course, hoop-la, beanbag toss or a “best trick” ring for confident dogs. Create a craft table for children, add a refreshments stall, or hold a teddy tombola or cake raffle to boost donations.

Some organisers include dog-safe treat baking, a quiet chill-out corner, or a photo backdrop where families can take pictures with their dogs.

With music, friendly volunteers and a few finishing touches like bunting or chalkboard signs, your fun day can quickly become an annual highlight in your community.
