Join us as we raise lifesaving funds for the animals in our care and our community at the 15th Annual Cause for Paws! This event is fun “fur” the whole family – pets included! Cause for Paws includes a Pet Festival with pet friendly activities, contests, and vendors alongside a 5K/1-Mile Run/Walk. Proceeds provide food, medical care, and shelter for homeless animals at our shelter.
