Enthusiastic, hardy pet friends gathered on an unseasonably rainy day for the 12th annual Walk- n-Wag at Minto-Brown Island Park in Salem, raising funds to keep hospice patients and their pets together through WVH's Pet Peace of Mind® program and to provide community Grief Care services.
Highlights for 2025:

  • CAPITOL SUBARU SHOW CAR
  • DOGGIE FASHION SHOW
  • LIVE BAND through Make Music Salem
  • 2026 POSTER DOG CONTEST PIX with NosesTailsPaws Pet Photography
  • BOOK SIGNING Second Chances: The Transformative Relationship Between Incarcerated Youth and Shelter Dogs by Joan Dalton
  • TREE-LINED GROUP DOG WALK
  • VENDOR VILLAGE of pet-loving non-profits and businesses
  • FABULOUS RAFFLE BASKETS

Plans are in the works for next summer's event - watch this site and WVH social media for the announcement, and for the poster contest voting.
