The 2026 Dog Ball

On February 7th, 2026 get ready for charm unleashed and join us for the 36th annual Dog Ball to support The Greater Huntsville Humane Society.

You can have a paw-z-tively marvelous time greeting and petting Very Important Dogs – or as we call them, VIDs.

Dinner, a live and silent auction and the presentation of the VIDs round out the fun.

And, new this year, The Dog Ball Boutique will add some extra charm to the evening.

The Dog Ball, the largest annual fundraiser for the Greater Huntsville Humane Society, is an exciting and enjoyable event that benefits the Humane Society’s animal shelter by helping to defray expenses incurred while providing care to animals in need.

We hope you’ll join us this year to unleash charm in the Von Braun Center South Hall.

The event starts at 5:45 with meeting the VIDs and browsing the silent auction followed by dinner at 7. Once dinner wraps up, you'll enjoy watching our VIDs strut their stuff on the "cat" walk!

Tickets and sponsorship information are available online at thedogball.org
