Bring the celebration to our shelter and party with pets!
Washington County Humane Society offers fur-filled birthday party options for kids aged 6-13. Our Pawty Package includes many entertainment amenities that will make your event stress free. Allowing WCHS to host your event benefits the shelter, too! Proceeds from your special day go directly toward the animals in our care.

- A 35′ x 45′ space with garbage/recycling bins, tables, and up to 30 chairs
- Space for 15 guests (not including adult chaperones)
- Fridge and freezer (available upon request)
- 45 minutes of entertainment, including an educational presentation about sheltering, tour of the facility, and a meet ‘n’ greet with one or more animals
