The Central Bark playgroups are for owners to take their pets to when these chilly winter days are just too much! Playgroups are for dogs of all ages, size and breed. Have your dog burn off some much needed energy and meet new friends. EBHS will also be at these events with adoptable dogs.

It’s $3 to play and all of the proceeds will benefit the animals at Elmbrook Humane Society that aren’t lucky enough to have forever homes yet. 

Playgroup Dates:

Jan. 14, Jan. 28, Feb. 11, Feb. 18, March 10, March 24

 

The Private Gold Exchange Event:

Location - Quality Inn, 20150 W. Bluemound Road, Brookfield

Time – 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

This one’s only for the 2-legged variety but proceeds will help our furry friends.  You’re invited to sell your unwanted Gold and Silver jewelry at a fundraiser to benefit the Elmbrook Humane Society.  When you bring in your Gold and Silver, you’re paid that same day — why not get paid to help animals!

 

Great Lakes Pet Expo

Location – Wisconsin Exposition Center at State Fair Park, 640 S. 84th Street, West Allis

Time – 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Pet Expo is for people of all ages and sizes who love animals or if you’re thinking about adding a new member to your family. At The Pet Expo you have the ability to meet animals from shelter and rescues from all over Wisconsin, and we’re not just talking about dogs and cats, all kinds of animals! Another added bonus is that Milwaukee Brewer’s star Craig Counsell will be at this event!! Counsell will be taking pictures and signing autographs for all of his fans.
