Let the games begin!

Walk for the PAWS — our summer celebration of the best of rescue — is just around the corner!  This year’s Summer Games, launching July 10th, will celebrate the most lovable, lazy, goofball, unique rescue pets on the planet:  yours!   

Create your own team, design your own flag, and join us in person for our Community Market along with 4 days of fun online challenges to follow, featuring nap-thletes, odd pet tricks, ridiculous costumes and lots of showing off and trash talking, all in the name of rescue.  We’ll have cool prize package and ribbons for our challenge winners, but the biggest winner will be the rescue pets who rely on PAWS Atlanta for a second chance.

Love to get outdoors, shop local and hang out with rescue puppies? We’ve got you covered! Come out to PAWS Atlanta Saturday, July 10th for our Walk for the PAWS Community Market!  Bring the kids, leash up the dogs and join us from 11am to 2pm on the shelter walking trail.  We’ll have food trucks, local vendors, adoptable dogs, puppies for snuggling and photos and you can pick up a PAWS Atlanta t-shirt! You can walk our shady trails, grab a refreshment and support some local businesses. We’ll also have adoptable dogs you can meet and PAWS team members who can match you with a rescue dog who would be a great fit for you. After a year apart, we’re so ready to see you again.  Mark you calendar:  July 10 from 11am to 2pm! 

Sign ups begin now, and this year’s Walk for the PAWS will reconnect our rescue friends from all over the US. Every dollar raised will help PAWS Atlanta’s life-saving mission to provide shelter, love and support to  some of Georgia’s most vulnerable homeless animals.
