Time to leash up Fido, put on your walking shoes and Walk for Animals! A yearly favorite, this event brings together local animal lovers and their canine companions for a walk to benefit the more than 2000 animals the Sauk County Humane Society helps every year.

Walkers will have their choice of two routes: a three-mile walk or one-mile stroll on Baraboo’s beautiful River Walk. Both will begin and end at the Maxwell Potter Conservancy/Baraboo Dog Park. Dogs are not required to join in on the fun!

As an added bonus, we will have fabulous prizes for our top individual and team fundraisers!

When you fundraise and donate, you are helping:

• To save the life of an orphaned kitten
• To reunite a lost pet with its owner
• To give a second chance to an animal with a catastrophic injury
• To feed and care for homeless pets
• To educate people of all ages about animal welfare
• To provide a voice for the voiceless
• To supply vaccines for shelter animals
• To rescue injured wildlife and facilitate rehabilitation
• To provide low-cost spay/neuter services to those who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford them
• To help us keep our Pet Food Pantry stocked for people needing help feeding their pets
• To help us help those people experiencing life emergencies who need help with their pet, either through our safekeeping program or our emergency vet fund.

Every step you take and every dollar you raise is another second chance given to an animal in need — what could be better than that?
