28th ANNUAL PAWS WALK

On July 24, Homeward Animal Shelter held its 28th Annual Paws Walk event at Rheault Farm in Fargo. It was a beautiful summer evening for this half-mile fun walk and pet party in support of the homeless dogs and cats of Homeward Animal Shelter. Over 350 people and over 210 dogs (and a few cats) attended to support all the furry faces of Homeward Animal Shelter. Donations for the Paws Walk are collected by participants prior to the walk. Prizes were awarded to the top teams and individuals who raised the most for the shelter animals.

In addition to the Paws Walk, the event included: music, inflatable games, face painting, doggy wading pools, a photo booth, vendor booths and free food by Potbelly Sandwich Shop and Insomnia Cookies. Over $42,000 was raised for the shelter pets of Homeward during this year’s event. All proceeds directly benefit the shelter animals by providing them with food, shelter and veterinary care while they await their forever homes.

If you were unable to attend July’s Paws Walk event, make sure to check out Homeward Animal Shelter’s fall fundraising event – Wags, Whiskers & Wine, a silent/live auction and wine tasting event taking place October 19 at the Holiday Inn Fargo.
