Goldens on the Green returns to Amherst Village Green on Sunday, October 25, 2026. The public event runs from 12:30 to 3 p.m. at 2 Main Street. Operation Delta Dog describes the annual gathering as a chance for Golden Retrievers and their owners to come together in Amherst.
Goldens on the Green hours and location
Both the Operation Delta Dog event page and the Amherst town calendar list the October 25 gathering. Use the 12:30–3 p.m. public hours when planning your visit.
The town calendar also shows a longer 8 a.m.–5 p.m. reservation window for the space. That covers the site reservation rather than the advertised public event. Therefore, arriving for the afternoon gathering will match the hours on the organizer’s page.
A local connection to Operation Delta Dog
Operation Delta Dog, which has its administrative office in Hollis, lists the event on its calendar. The nonprofit rescues shelter dogs and trains them as psychiatric service dogs for veterans. Its official background page explains how staff match each dog with a veteran and tailor training to the partnership.
The organization provides its program at no cost to veterans. It also describes volunteering, donations and event participation as ways to support its work. For neighbors learning about the group for the first time, its website is a useful place to start.
Check the latest details before you go
As of October 4, the event pages do not provide a detailed 2026 activity schedule, admission amount or rain date. Check the current listing as Goldens on the Green approaches. Avoid relying on an older year’s schedule when making plans.
If you have questions about attending with your dog, contact Operation Delta Dog through the event page. The listed phone number is 603-921-5253. Ask about any participation details you need before setting out, especially if this will be your first visit.
Finally, keep the afternoon time window handy when sharing the date with friends. For another October outing nearby, our Milford fall craft show guide covers the separate October 17–18 event at the Hampshire Dome.
