Dear John,

The PAWS 5K is almost here! Sign up now to receive the $40 advance registration pricing through Wednesday, September 6. Online registration closes Sept. 6 and participation fees increase on the day of the event.   

The PAWS 5K is more fun than a Kong full of peanut butter. Dogs and their people enjoy a beautiful stroll along Lake Michigan, followed by a full-out party with dog agility courses, live raffles, entertainment, treats, and tons of surprises. You'll enjoy the day even more knowing it raises crucial funds to help save homeless pets.

All proceeds help move our No Kill mission forward, benefiting homeless pets across Chicagoland. PLUS, those who raise $250 gain access to our 5K Hero Hangout, which includes drinks, bites, and even more prizes.
