2 Minutes for Doggies: How the Chicago Wolves Are Helping Animal Shelters & Rescues

What happens when a professional hockey team uses its platform to make a difference far beyond the ice?

In this episode of Keep It Humane: The Podcast, we sit down with Courtney Mahoney of the Chicago Wolves to talk about the incredible community work happening through the organization.

Courtney joined us to help promote the Wolves’ upcoming adoption event at their first home game on October 10, 2026, but our conversation quickly became so much more.

We dive into the Wolves’ commitment to animal adoption, their long-running Adopt-A-Dog program, community partnerships, charitable initiatives, and the many ways professional sports can create opportunities to help animals and the people who care about them.

It’s a great conversation about animals, community, sports, and using a platform for something bigger than the game itself.

🏒🐾 Chicago Wolves vs. Animal Homelessness? Now THAT’S a team we can get behind.

Tune in and hear how the Wolves are helping make a difference both on and off the ice.
