Old Dog Haven’s 8th Annual Walk for Old Dogs
Sunday July 21, 2019
10:00am - 2:00pm
Join us for a walk in the park with your dog.
The Walk for Old Dogs is Old Dog Haven’s biggest annual fundraiser. Thanks to our generous sponsors, every penny raised at the Walk will be used to care for the over 315 senior dogs in our permanent foster homes.
The event is an experience you don’t want to miss.
Old dogs, young dogs and people of all ages are welcome. The Walk is not a race but a fun 1/3 mile promenade to celebrate with our senior dogs! It's a nice stroll on a paved path along lawns and fields.
Walk as much (or as little) as you and your dog prefer!
Before the walk you can browse the many sponsor and vendor booths (many offering samples and goodies), and enter the raffle.
The registration fee is $35 per person (dogs and children under 12 are free) and includes an official Walk tote as well as free entry in the Pageant.
If you live out of state or can’t attend, you can still help by doing a virtual Walk for Old Dogs.
Register as an individual, or form a team with family, friends, and coworkers, and start fundraising for the dogs today.
On the day of the Walk we’ll be posting live on Facebook so you can attend virtually and we’ll pop your Walk tote in the mail.
You can visit the Walk website to register, make a donation if you’re unable to attend (Old Dog Haven is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization—donations are tax-deductible) and find out everything you need to know about the event.
Online pre-registration is recommended so you can spend more time enjoying the event.
