What began as a dream to reach peoples hearts through the joy of playing with dogs is now a mission to grow the next generation.

PLAY DOG PLAY educational adventures are based on research into the shared human-animal need for PLAY.

At PLAY DOG PLAY, we believe that play is more than just fun - it’s a bridge that brings people, families, and communities closer together. Our mission is to encourage healthy bonds between people and dogs through playful, educational experiences that nurture connection, joy and understanding.

We see dogs as teachers of loyalty, joy and presence. By engaging with them in meaningful ways, we help families and neighborhoods strengthen their relationships not only with their pets, but also with each other and with God’s creation.

Through community events, workshops and play-based learning, PLAY DOG PLAY creates opportunities for people to learn, laugh and grow alongside their dogs. How PLAY builds holistic wellness for body, mind and soul. Our team is constantly keeping up with current studies into neuroplasticity, play as a primary reinforcer, how pets improve mental health, play as learning, how childhood responsibilities create lasting lifelong benefits and many more. For details on these studies please contact us.

At our heart, we believe that when people are connected- to one another, to their dogs, and to the world around them — communities thrive.
