Our biggest fundraiser of the year, Doggie Dash ensures that OHS can continue providing our critical life-saving programs and services for the community. The success of this event is only possible with the help of thousands of caring individuals who raise funds and advocate for animals in need!
The Walk: Choose between a 1.5 mile flat loop around the park or a 2.5 mile loop that traverses the Hawthorne Bridge and Steel Bridge. Runners are asked to lead the pack by starting your route at 9 a.m. Waves start every 15 minutes between 9 a.m.–10:15 a.m. For your safety, attendees who wish to walk the course must do so by 10:15 a.m. The course will reopen to traffic and will not be monitored by course officials after that time.
The Pet Festival: Open to all registered Dashers, the festival features animal-loving local businesses, food trucks, family-friendly activities, a libation station for 21+, live music, and contests for you and your pup! Make sure you stop by the Photo Booth for a keepsake pic.
