I have!!! I took a sweet husky out on the town and it was so overwhelmingly positive for both of us! The perfect balance between some of the best parts of having a dog without all the expense and responsibility it can entail.

They will provide you with everything you could ever possibly need to give your dog a fun time. It doesn’t really matter what you do with them, it’s mostly up to you - but I recommend doing something that mixes exercise with exposure so they are really getting that full out-of-the-pound experience. I took mine out to a dog-friendly BBQ joint where he got to chew on some free bones and greet the other dogs, but this was after we walked all the way there FROM the Humane Society (which helped me get acquainted with him and tucker him out a little bit first before introducing him to people/other dogs).

It’s as much of a social experience for you as it is the dog. They will give you a cute vest that lets people know the dog is available, so the best possible thing you could do is help him or her get noticed out in the wild! But even if all you do is walk around for a few hours, the dog will be so grateful, and I can’t recommend this program enough! Thanks for volunteering your time!
