UPDATE: For everyone's safety, we have decided to make this year's event a virtual one. Have no fear, we will still make it fun and interactive. And you will still be able to run/walk on your own, or with your "pack", and then enter your time for your winner's medal! Stay tuned for more updates.
Join us for a family friendly, pet friendly, run or walk 5K! Proceeds will benefit Alamo Area Partners for Animal Welfare (AAPAW) which provides support and veterinary funding for rescue groups in and around the San Antonio area. There will be pets available for adoption from our rescue group members, music, games, photo ops, pancakes from Magnolia Pancake House, a dog trainer on hand for Q&A, a lots more! Follow our Facebook event page for ongoing updates.
Please note that Monday, October 26th is the last day to guarantee your shirt. We will have a few extras on hand at the event, but any registrations after that date are not guaranteed a shirt.
Alamo Area Partners for Animal Welfare (AAPAW) was formed in 2007 by animal welfare advocates who joined forces to improve the lives of animals in the San Antonio area. Our members and participants consist of over 60 rescue groups and individual rescuers, and we work in partnership with local veterinarians, businesses, and others devoted to reducing the homeless pet population in and around San Antonio. Together, our members rescue and adopt out 1,000’s of animals each and every year! We are 100% run by volunteers.
In 2018, AAPAW provided funding for 315 spay/neuter procedures to both rescue groups and community residents. AAPAW also provided funding for 115 heartworm treatments. Heartworms are a prevalent (but both preventable and usually treatable) problem here in Texas.
Together We C-A-N!
Care - Educate our community to prevent animal abuse and promose pet retention through responsible pet ownership
Adopt - Ensure that every adoptable homeless dog or cat finds a good home
Neuter - End overpopulation of promoting spay/neuter
