PAWS CHICAGO 5K WALK/RUN

On Saturday, September 18th, PAWS held their 21st annual 5k Walk/Run For Their Lives event - now Chicago’s largest dog-friendly charity event. Their fundraising goal was $350,000 in donations (continues through October 31st) to help save homeless pets.
​
Our friend Alexandra and her pups, Bailey and Bodhi, showed up representing Real Dog Moms of Chicago. AND with your help, we were awarded 2nd Place for Fundraising - Community Groups Team!!!

A message from Alexandra about the event:

“You should know I adopted Bailey from PAWS Chicago in June 2015. Since then, we have attended the PAWS Chicago 5K annually and raised nearly $6,000. In 2017, we joined the Real Dog Moms of Chicago fundraising team and have proudly been one of the top teams each year. This year, Bodhi got to experience his first 5K. I adopted him from Pittie Please Rescue in July 2020.  

I will forever be grateful to have been able to bring my boys home and do what I can to support local organizations to help save homeless animals. The PAWS Chicago 5K is the city’s largest dog-friendly charity we look forward to attending each year. 

The weather was perfect and both boys proudly completed their annual 5K. Some of their favorite moments were the Pupp-arrazzi stations, sniffing and greeting other dogs, and the Hero’s Hangout where they got all the treats and love.”
