Interested in having a litter of puppies visit your office, conference, or birthday party? We can provide puppies! There is nothing like snuggling and playing with puppies to bring joy to people of all ages. Our puppies are rescued from overcrowded shelters in the South and are available for adoption (see https://ophrescue.org/guide for information on adopting from OPH). Your donation will support our work to rescue and find forever homes for dogs in need! These events are available in the areas where OPH operates: northern Virginia (as far south as Springfield), the District of Columbia, central Maryland, and southern Pennsylvania (as far north as York). These events and parties are subject to availability of puppies and volunteers.

The puppies we have in our rescue varies at any particular time, and the size of litters and type of puppies also varies widely. We are usually able to provide several puppies, but we may not know the number of puppies or other details until shortly before the event.
If the puppies have not yet had all their vaccinations, which is often the case with puppies younger than three months, we will follow puppy quarantine procedures. This means that puppies cannot be put down on the ground except in the pen provided by OPH, and guests must sanitize their hands before touching the puppies.
To request a puppy event or party, please fill out the form and OPH will get back to you.
