Join the Festivities!

Tails Around the Tower, DHA's 22nd Annual Walk for the Animals, will be taking place on Sunday, October 7, 2012 from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm, and this year we will be gathering at a new location, Rockford Park in Wilmington, DE.

The approx. one-mile walk around the park by dogs and their people is just one part of this event—a fun atmosphere, dressed-up dogs, music, refreshments, pet-friendly vendors, the always popular Pet Contests, and a moonbounce for the kids make this a perfect outing for the entire family.

Mike Rossi from WSTW will be on hand to add his special brand of humor to the festivities, and we are very proud to be joined this year for photos and book signing by special Walk Grand Marshall Oogy! Adoptable dogs from DHA will also be on hand, and who knows, you just might find yourself a new friend that you want to take home!

The Walk for the Animals is DHA’s biggest fundraiser of the year, and proceeds support our mission as it is carried out throughout a four state area.
