Bark and Bond: More than a Race,
It's a Mission!
Bring your dog and make memories at the Bark and Bond Festival & 3K—the ultimate outing for you and your four-legged best friend! Stroll, jog, or run together in our scenic 3K, then enjoy a fun-filled festival packed with dog-friendly activities, local vendors, entertainment, and more. It’s more than just a walk—it’s a day of bonding, celebration, and supporting domestic violence survivors and their pets. Don’t miss this tail-wagging good time!
- At the heart of our event is a unique race designed for your dog to be the star, and you as their trusty human companion. It's time to lace up your running shoes, strap on your dog's leash, and hit the ground running (or walking) for a cause that touches hearts and saves lives.
- Navigate through an exciting obstacle course peppered along the race route, each challenge a fun and bonding experience for you and your dog. From weaving poles to mini jumps, these activities are tailored for all skill levels, ensuring every participant, whether a seasoned athlete or a casual walker, enjoys the day.
- Complete each obstacle and be rewarded with amazing prizes, generously donated by our incredible sponsors. These aren't just rewards; they're symbols of the difference you're making in the lives of pets and survivors of domestic violence.
- Every step you take, and every obstacle you conquer contributes to our mission at Praline's Backyard Foundation. The funds raised go directly towards providing safe housing for pets of domestic violence survivors across the nation. It's your chance to be part of a larger movement, ensuring that no pet is left behind in times of crisis.
- Whether you come for the challenge, the camaraderie, or the cause, the Paws for Domestic Violence event promises a day filled with joy, excitement, and the satisfaction of making a real difference. Don't miss this opportunity to race for a reason, and let's make strides together towards a safer world for survivors and their furry friends.
- Spread the word, gather your friends (two-legged and four-legged), and join us for a day that celebrates the bond between humans and pets while championing a crucial cause. Let's race, raise awareness, and change lives—one paw at a time!
