Bark in the Park: Walk Your Dog to Help All Dogs (Cats too!) | Steve ...

By Steve Dale, Monday at 7:55 am

Bark in the Park, benefiting the Anti Cruelty Society,?is a Chicago tradition, this 19th annual event kicks off May 4 in Lincoln Park near Montrose Beach. Thousands of dogs will take a leisurely walk the 5K course, though some more serious folks (without a dog) can run the course. The run begins at 9 a.m., and the walk kicks off at 9:15.

Among the many vendors, there will be samples of pheromone products (Adaptil and Feliway) for helping anxious pets, with expert advice. Also, there will be samples of various pet treats. You can "test" your pup in agility....and there are even snacks for people!

By raising funds for Bark in the Park, you are supporting Ant Curelty's open doors for any animal in need 365 days a year. Emcees for the event include myself, Bart Shore of WBBM radio and WLS-TV Roz Varron and Hosea Sanders.

Though the mission is serious, this event puts the fun in fundraising! ?Here are some images from recent Bark in the Park's.
