Our pets are walking with us to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide!

We will have dog yoga, competitions for best dressed and best trick, and more fun events! There will also be treats, water stations, and plenty of shade for your pets.

Don't own a dog and are looking to adopt one? Muddy Paws Rescue will be joining us with some of their adoptable dogs!

Made with Padlet

 

This is a non-competitive Walk and will be roughly the length of a 5k. Walkers and their pets are encouraged to walk at their own pace.

Walkers agree to only bring their pets if they are 100% capable of controlling their pet. Pets must be leashed and under control at all times. Owners must clean up after their pets and dispose of any refuse. All pets attending must be up to date on rabies vaccines and all other NYC vaccination and medical requirements.

AFSP NYC Chapter Staff and volunteers reserve the right to ask any attendees to leave the event if their pet is posing a danger to those at the boardwalk.

 

Thank you for your generous support! We can't wait to walk with you and your pets.
