The Durham Bulls’ paw-pular Bark in the Park nights presented by Tito’s Handmade Vodka return to the DBAP in 2022! Enjoying America’s pastime with your best four-legged friend is a night you’ll remember fur-ever. Come on out April 13, May 11, June 1, July 6, and August 10.
Human ($9.50) and dog ($5.50) tickets are on sale now HERE. Each dog needs a ticket, and each dog ticket includes a donation to Second Chance Pet Adoptions. Note that seating for dogs is only available in Outfield Reserve sections.
As usual, Second Chance volunteers will be ready and excited to “pet sit” your pup while you access parts of the stadium where non-service dogs are not allowed (food and drinks, restrooms, and so on).

Second Chance Pet Adoptions
6003 Chapel Hill Rd, Raleigh, NC 27607, USA
Are you looking to add a new canine friend to your family? Summer is a great time to do so! Get started on the adoption process by coming to the Second Chance Adoption Center and meeting a bunch of our adoptable dogs at once! Want to make the process even quicker? Submit an application ahead of time and let us know what kind of dog you are looking for! Or if you just want to swing by and see who is around and who you click with, you can do that too. There’s plenty of ways to start your adoption process, all you need to do is start!

Dog Wash Fundraiser
11:00 am-3:00 pm
06/18/2022
Unleashed – Creedmoor
7408 Creedmoor Road Raleigh, NC 27613
https://www.secondchancenc.org/dog-wash-sign-up/
Bring your dog to Unleashed and Second Chance volunteers will bathe your pup for you! Spare you knees, back, and bathroom by making a contribution to Second Chance (recommended $10 per dog) so more stray and abandoned cats and dogs can get their second chances to find love. Cash, check, and credit card are all accepted on-site; your dog can get a bath as a walk-in or you can make an appointment via our website.
Dog washes are the third Saturday of each month, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in January and February, and from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in March through December.
We strongly encourage you to make an appointment–doing so will reduce or eliminate your wait time and you can even pre-pay for greater convenience if you’d like. To schedule a wash, click HERE. The reservation system opens at 12:00 noon on the first day of each month and closes at 11:00 a.m. the day before the wash or when all appointments are booked, whichever comes first. We will always have room for walk-ins.
Our volunteers will follow any COVID-related protocols in place at the time, whether the precautions are set by Wake County, the City of Raleigh, Unleashed, or Second Chance. We encourage dog wash customers to do the same. If you have any questions about the protocols in place at the time of your scheduled wash or the dog wash itself, please contact us at Rachel@SecondChanceNC.org.

It’s “Take Your Dog to Work” Day and both you and your pup have worked hard. You both deserve a break, so come on down to Bottle Rev and grab a drink for you and some special treats for your partner!
