Walk for Paws Comes to West Chester

Published 6 days ago • 1 min read

It starts with a run —but it turns into something so much more.
We are just weeks away from Walk for Paws! Join Brandywine Valley SPCA on April 25 from 10 AM–1 PM at West Goshen Community Park for a celebration where every step helps save lives. The day kicks off with a 5K color run at 9 AM, followed by a community celebration in the park from 10 AM – 1 PM.

There’s something for everyone. Get moving during the run, walk, or yoga with puppies, or simply cheer from the sidelines and enjoy the fun. The day will feature live music, local vendors, a kids fun zone, adorable adoptable pets ready to find their homes, a crowd-favorite pet costume contest, and even a doggie lure course giving your besties the chance to run and play.

This year’s walk is extra special. Brandywine Valley SPCA is honored to welcome Dawn Timmeney, anchor/reporter, FOX 29 News on WTFX-FOX 29 for a second year as their emcee, along with Eddie from Eddie & Chooch, who will lead the walk in loving memory of Chooch—a beautiful reminder of the bond we all share with the animals we love and never forget. You can even join their teams to walk with them!

Come as you are. Bring your dog, your kids, your friends, or just your big heart. Together, we’ll walk for paws, for love, and for a future where every pet belongs!
