Participants will run or walk with hundreds of other animal lovers and their four-legged friends at Carrier Park in Asheville to raise money for animals in need. Participants can choose to compete in the chip-timed 5K or stroll in the one-mile run/walk. Afterwards, visitors can enjoy a cold beer courtesy of Wicked Weed and relax at the park with food from Gypsy Queen, music, and other fun activities.
This year, runners will have a chance to win great prizes from local businesses such as ENO and The No Meat Athlete. There will even be prizes for the dogs who participate in the run/walk!
Run for the Paws proceeds will help support the life-saving programs Brother Wolf has created over the past 10 years to grow and sustain No-Kill communities.
