Community Involvement in Greensboro

At Happy Tails Veterinary Emergency Clinic, supporting our community is at the heart of everything we do. For nearly two decades, we’ve partnered with local organizations, schools, rescues, and animal-focused groups to make a positive impact on pets and the people who care for them.

Long-Standing Partnerships & Sponsorships

  • Babe’s Bark in the Park – Greensboro Grasshoppers
    Happy Tails was the first hospital in the Triad to sponsor this beloved event. All proceeds support local animal rescues, helping pets find safety, care, and forever homes.
  • NewBridge Bank High School Football & Cheerleading Jamboree
    We proudly sponsored Grimsley High School, with proceeds returning directly to participating schools to support student programs.
  • Girl Scout Troop 40172 – Tails to Trails Dog Walk & Foster Awareness Event
    This partnership helped highlight the urgent need for foster families for homeless pets in Greensboro. Troop 40172 collected essential supplies and donations for the local animal shelter, and we were honored to support their efforts.
  • “Bark in the Boro” – Greensboro Parks & Recreation
    As ongoing sponsors of this annual celebration, we help support dog-friendly recreation and responsible pet ownership across the community.
  • “Canine Capers” & Oak Ridge Bark Park
    As original sponsors of this event, we supported the development of the Oak Ridge Bark Park in 2013—a cherished space where dogs can play, exercise, and socialize. Proceeds continue to help maintain this vibrant community resource.
  • WFMY-TV’s “2 the Rescue” Adoption Show
    Since its launch in 2009, we’ve proudly remained a primary sponsor of this life-changing program that connects homeless pets with loving families.

    We work closely with this dedicated wildlife organization to provide emergency medical care and support for injured or orphaned wildlife across the Triad.
  • Pet Safety Classes at Doggos Dog Park & Pub
    Our team regularly partners with Doggos to teach hands-on pet safety, emergency preparedness, and first-aid basics—empowering pet parents with the knowledge they need to keep their companions safe.

Partnership With Guilford County Animal Services

Happy Tails is proud to work closely with Guilford County Animal Services (GCAS) to support the animals who need emergency care the most.

  • Stray Animal Care
    Our team frequently provides medical care for injured, sick, and vulnerable strays brought in through GCAS or Good Samaritans. We consider it our responsibility—and privilege—to give these pets a fighting chance at recovery and adoption.
  • Dog's Day Out Program
    We love supporting the Dog’s Day Out program, which gives shelter dogs a chance to enjoy an afternoon outside the shelter with volunteers. These experiences help reduce stress, improve adoptability, and show the community just how wonderful these dogs truly are.

Our Promise to the Community
