The Humane Society of Chittenden County (HSCC) is gearing up for their 27th Annual Walk for the Animals & 5K Doggie Fun Run on Saturday, August 14th, 2021 at a brand-new location - Burlington's Waterfront Park! Participants may choose to complete a 1 mile walk or 5K fun run, with or without their canine companion. The event features a scenic lakeside route, DIY doggie photo booth, great prizes for Top Fundraisers, and a commemorative T-shirt for participants who raise $100 or more. Vermont's largest dog-friendly event also happens to be HSCC's biggest fundraiser of the year, and all proceeds will support and strengthen HSCC's programs and services.

In addition to finding homes for 1,087 dogs, cats, and small animals in 2020, over 50,000 animals have been adopted throughout HSCC's 120 year history! HSCC also offers low-cost spay/neuter and preventative veterinary care to community pets; runs humane education programs for children and adults; boards the pets of individuals and families in crisis; provides a year-round Emergency Pet Food Shelf; and is the only humane society in Vermont that employs a humane investigator who responds to reports of animal cruelty.

The Walk & 5K is a great way to have fun, get some exercise, and spend quality time with your pooch & fellow animal lovers, all while supporting a good cause!
