Shelby Humane Society Paws for the Cause 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run/Dog Walk
Shelby Humane Society is the only open-admission animal shelter in Shelby County. We care for over 5,000 lost, homeless & unwanted pets each year. We rely on fundraisers such as Paws for the Cause to perform our life-saving mission.
Held Saturday, October 8th - Paws for the Cause is a certified 5k off-road cross-country race through the beautiful Veterans Park in Hoover. The course takes you on a path through the park around the lake and through tree-lined trails surrounding the park.
The Kid Fun Run and 1 Mile Pet Walk allows children to explore the park and you to show off your dogs while they are getting some exercise too! All dogs that participate will receive a special prize.
Register by September 15th for price discounts, a technical running shirt and be entered into a drawing for a $100 gift certificate from Pampered Pet Resort!
Race packet pick-up will be scheduled the week of event at Trak Shak on Highway 280 - more details TBA to registrants.
Please note to save costs we do not administer chip timing devices.
