This year's party will be downtown at beautiful Promenade Park in the pavilion:. These programs touch the lives of over 2, children in our community each year and teach the values of kindness, empathy, and compassion towards animals and the people who love them. By reaching young minds early, we aim to reduce animal cruelty and neglect.
To reinforce the importance of awareness around animal cruelty and neglect, each year at the Howl-O-Walkoween event we honor an animal that has experienced a level of cruelty but has turned around for the better. This year's dog of honor is Jack. In February of this year Jack was shot multiple times in his paws by an unkind person who left him abandonded, and to suffer.
A good samaritan found Jack and called Thankfully, the quick action resulted in Jack being stabilized and then transferred to FWACC to receive additional care. After two toes had been amputated and some time, he started his recovery. Jack quickly showed his sweet and fun-loving personality and was adopted by a wonderful family where he is now loved and cherished.
