One week until the Walk for the Animals!

Can you believe it?

We are just one week away from having the time of our lives (and saving some too!) at the 3rd AnnualWalk for the Animals! Already registered? PAWesome. Not quite there yet? There's still time to be a part of one of Prescott's favorite pet events of the year, where hundreds of pet lovers (and their dogs) flock to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to Walk, Run, Strut Their Mutts, and Be Heroes for pets in need.
Online registration for the Walk will close this Wednesday at 5pm. We can't guarantee a t-shirt for folks who show up on the day of the event. Click here to easily register online.

If you have already registered - we can't WAIT to see you next Saturday, April 26!

Don't forget to send out those email and facebook reminders for your friends and family to support your lifesaving efforts. YHS Staffer Elisabeth posted yesterday and raised over $100. Click here for some fundraising tips to help you reach your goals!

Clinic at the Walk!
Dogs are welcome to walk with their owners as long as they are currently licensed, vaccinated, and on a leash no more than six feet in length in keeping with Prescott's leash law (no retractable leashes).  Did you know that our Spay/Neuter and Wellness Clinic will be on-site offering low-cost microchipping and boosters for your canine companions!
