Relax. You’re not doing this alone.

Saturday, 10/3, 11 - 2 PM | Navy Yard

We’re bringing Opportunity Barks to the 20th Annual PAWS Mutt Strut! Come find our table, say hi, and let your dog hit the interactive agility course. Play, connect, and celebrate Philly dogs while supporting PAWS and their work for homeless and at-risk pets. Grab your leash and your costume - we’ll see you there!

This 3-hour clinic is for dogs who go big, and the humans ready to get underneath the behavior, find the feel, and build real traction together. We’ll step into real-life scenarios, work with pressure, arousal, communication, and clarity, and learn how to help your dog come back to the ground when the world gets loud. This afternoon is about learning the dance, finding your way back to each other, and leaving with something you can actually carry into the real world.

Working dog spots are limited; only pre-registered dogs may attend.

A little spooky and a lot of puppy - this Halloween social is a chance for puppies to explore, play, learn, and practice being in the world together. We’ll keep it playful and thoughtful, helping those little nervous systems build confidence, connection, and some very important life skills along the way.

Saturday, 11/14, 10a-12p | The Farm

Come spend a fall day at the farm with us as we gather our people, our dogs, and all the wild little threads that made up this year. We’ll hike, play, wander, eat, laugh, and enjoy the simple magic of being together on the land. Friendsgiving is our way of slowing down, celebrating what we’ve built, and wrapping up the year in good company.

If OPB has changed your life with your dog, pass it on. Referrals help build clearer communication, and dogs who can actually move through the world well. That matters.

When your friend joins us, we’ll send appreciation your way…gift cards, gear, and a proper thank-you for spreading the standard.
