Join us on Saturday, June 6, 2026, from 9:00 AM–12:00 PM at Blueberry Fields Dog Park (Sylvania Dog Park) in partnership with Mercy Health for a celebration packed with food, games, adoptable animals, and fun activities for pups, kids, and the whole family.
We need YOU to go the extra mile for the homeless pets who depend on THS. Start fundraising and race your way up our prize ladder, because the more you raise, the more fun rewards you’ll earn! Every dollar raised helps provide lifesaving care to animals who call THS their home-for-now.
Whether you’re running the 5K or enjoying the 1-Mile Dog Walk, every step supports shelter, medical care, and second chances for thousands of animals each year.
Lace up your sneakers, grab your leash, rally your friends, and help us make 2026 our biggest Bark in the Park yet. Register, start fundraising, and we’ll see you at the starting line!
