The Kalamazoo Humane Society Dog Walkathon is an annual event jam-packed with many fun activities the whole family will enjoy.  Come watch Milt Wilcox’s Ultimate Air Dog Challenge, Skyhoundz Hyperflight Canine Disc Championship, Freestyle Obedience Demonstration "Dancing with Dogs", and see our many unique demonstrations, doggie obstacle courses, animal information booths, pet photography area, crazy contests, children's games, face painting and much, much more.  So come walk with your best friend!


It's easy to take giant strides to help animals during Be Kind to Animals Week.  Here's how:
  1. Ask friends, relatives, co-workers and businesses to sponsor you as you "walk your tail off for the animals."  Our goal is to raise $85,000 in donations.  (Click here to download the donation collection form)
     

  2. Meet at Prairie View Park on May 3.  Take I-94 to exit 78, head south on Portage Road 7.1 Miles, turn right onto U Avenue.  The park is 1/2 mile down on the right.
     

  3. Participants may walk or run the course anytime between 9:00am and 1:00pm.  Please check in at the registration tent on the day of the walk.


The main walk route is approximately two miles through beautiful Prairie View Park in Vicksburg.

Volunteers will be posted at checkpoints along the route to cheer you on.  Water will be available for pets and their companions at all checkpoints and the main event area.  The route will be continuously monitored by KHS personnel and volunteers to offer assistance, if needed.
