Walk Woof Wag Chico's favorite annual dog festival & walk! Join us for a pawsome day in Bidwell Park with games, costume contests, & more. We raise more each year!

All proceeds benefit the Chico Animal Shelter, providing critical care for local animals in need. 🐾 Join us for Walk Woof Wag #11, October 19th 2024. Registration is open now at www.WalkWoofWag.com! The idea for a fundraiser walk for Chico Animal Shelter originated in 2014 with Bryce Velasco, a young man inspired by a great dog. Bryce’s dog, Jasmine, was adopted through Chico Animal Shelter and a deep friendship between a boy and his dog was born. The inaugural Walk Woof Wag, in 2014, raised close to $1,800 for Chico Animal Shelter. All donations and net proceeds generated by Walk Woof Wag are dedicated to Chico Animal Shelters' medical fund so that animals needing veterinary treatment can get the care they need.

❤️🐾 WE DID IT! $35,000 RAISED FOR THE CHICO ANIMAL SHELTER! 🐾❤️

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to our incredible Walk Woof Wag family! 💕

To everyone who donated raffle prizes, sponsored the event, made a monetary donation, purchased a commemorative shirt, shared our posts, or came out to support us at The Commons—we are so grateful for you!

Thanks to a generous donation from one of our amazing supporters and the collective generosity of this community, we raised $35,000 for the Chico Animal Shelter! 🎉🐶🐱

This year didn’t look anything like we had planned. But our mission never changed. ❤️

We found a different way to bring our community together, celebrate our Walk Woof Wag family, and continue raising money for the animals who need us. And because of YOU, we reached our $35,000 fundraising goal!

These funds will help the Chico Animal Shelter provide critical care, medical treatment, comfort, and second chances to animals waiting for loving homes. Every dollar represents hope for an animal who deserves a better tomorrow. 🏡🐾

Thank you for showing up, stepping up, and reminding us what community is all about. Your kindness and support have meant more than words can express, especially during such a difficult time.

Here’s to every animal who will receive care, find healing, and eventually find their forever family because of you. ❤️

With heartfelt gratitude, thank you for being part of our Walk Woof Wag family! 🐾💖

❤️ YOUR DONATION CAN HELP BRING HOPE HOME. ❤️

Every animal deserves a chance to find a loving family. But before they can find their forever home, many need medical treatment, nutritious food, a safe place to rest, and a little extra love.

That’s where YOU can make a difference! 🐶🐱

Although this year’s Walk Woof Wag walk has been canceled, our mission to support the Chico Animal Shelter continues—and we need our amazing community to help us keep making a difference!

💕 There are TWO ways you can help:

🐾 Make a monetary donation. Every dollar helps provide care, comfort, and second chances for animals who need it most.

🎁 Donate a raffle prize! Have a product, gift basket, gift certificate, or service you could contribute? Your donation helps us raise funds for shelter animals while giving our supporters something fun to win!

Every contribution, big or small, brings us one step closer to helping an animal find the loving family they deserve. Together, we can turn hope into happy endings. 🏡🐾

❤️ Donate today and help us make a difference!

🐾 Important Walk Woof Wag Update 🐾

It is with very heavy hearts that we have made the difficult decision to cancel the Walk Woof Wag walk and festival scheduled for Saturday, October 24.

Earlier this week, Walk Woof Wag organizer Celeste Cramer’s home was devastated by a fire. Her dogs, Hazel and Boo Bear, were trapped inside and rescued by firefighters. Both initially survived, but Boo suffered severe smoke inhalation. Despite emergency veterinary care and fighting incredibly hard, her condition declined, and Celeste had to say goodbye to her beloved Boo.

Hazel is doing well and continues to be watched closely.

In a matter of days, Celeste has lost her home, essentially all of her belongings, and now her beloved Boo. Walk Woof Wag has been a labor of love for Celeste for many years, but under these heartbreaking circumstances, we simply cannot put on the full festival and walk this year.

BUT WE ARE NOT GIVING UP ON OUR MISSION. ❤️🐾

The animals at the Chico Animal Shelter still need us, and we remain committed to raising as much money as possible for them this year.

👕 We will STILL be taking orders for the 2026 commemorative Walk Woof Wag shirts!

🎉 We will STILL hold our first-ever Walk Woof Wag Pre-Party at The Commons on Friday, October 23 from 6–9 PM!

🎶 LoFi Lowdown will still be joining us for live music, and we hope you’ll come spend the evening with us, pick up your shirt, and support a cause that means even more to us right now.

❤️ And we hope you will STILL DONATE.

If you were planning to participate in Walk Woof Wag, please consider turning that support into a donation, purchasing a commemorative shirt, attending the Pre-Party, or simply sharing our fundraiser with others.

We are committed to continuing to raise money for the Chico Animal Shelter because animals like Boo —and the countless animals who come through the shelter needing medical care, safety, compassion, and a second chance—are exactly why this work matters.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has registered, donated, volunteered, sponsored, shared our posts, and supported this event.

The walk may not happen this year, but the fundraising WILL continue. 🐾❤️

Please help us keep going.
