Frequently Asked Questions
What is CuddlePups?
CuddlePups is Chicago’s first ticketed cuddle and play experience featuring a pack of gentle, socialized Italian Greyhounds. It’s a private, small-group wellness session—great for dates, families, or anyone in need of a serotonin boost after a long day. Our sessions are designed to be calm, cozy, and intentional. Guests enjoy scheduled time with the dogs in a peaceful environment, supported by professional pet caregivers who ensure the wellbeing of both humans and pups. CuddlePups is something entirely different. Our ticketed cuddle & play sessions are private, small-group events where the focus is on therapeutic, joyful connection with a bonded pack of Italian Greyhounds. Every moment is structured to keep the dogs relaxed and the guest experience special. Science backs up what we all feel instinctively: time with animals reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, and increases feel-good hormones like serotonin. These pups are here to help people slow down, smile more, and feel better. Victoria’s pack of Italian Greyhounds are available with wholesome intent - to help people in need of more love and support in their lives. We also give back with regular donated tickets to children’s hospitals, senior centers, and more.
