We are excited to announce that Lucky Paws Animal Assistance is hosting its 6th Annual "Wag through the Pines" Doggie Walk/Run to raise funds for the welfare of unwanted, mistreated, and neglected animals. The event will be held at the beautiful White Horse Winery at 106 Hall St., Hammonton, NJ, on Saturday, April 25th, starting at 11 am.
-We will have music, vendors, a food truck, photos with your pet, and a 50/50 raffle at the event. For participants who are 21 years of age or older, registration includes a complimentary glass of wine and a glass to take home! After the race, you can sit back, relax, enjoy the courtyard with your pet, shop at our vendor tables, and listen to music. We will also have games set up in the courtyard for your enjoyment!
-You can participate in either walk/run event with your 2- or 4-legged family members, but please remember that your pets must always be leashed, and NO RETRACTABLE leashes are allowed. Strollers are allowed, but please know that most of the race will occur through the vineyards.
-Participants registering by March 25, 2026, will get a Wag through the Pines t-shirt and a bandana for their pet. Those registering after won't receive t-shirts, as orders must be placed by then.
-Friends, family, and supporters are all welcome to cheer you on from the sidelines. It’s a fun day for everyone, so please spread the word about our event!
-Start a fundraiser today and not only will you be making a positive impact, but if you raise over $150.00, you'll also have your registration fee waived! It's a win-win situation that allows you to contribute to a great cause while saving money. Don't hesitate, start your fundraiser now and make a difference!
*Please note that if you plan to attend the event, you need to arrive BEFORE 10 am to check in and collect a packet. The event will start promptly at 11 am, and the course will be closed once the 11 am wave is over. The event offers a 1 Mile Walk or 3 Mile Walk/Run through the vineyards. Participants are welcome to run or walk for the 3-mile option, but there won't be a timekeeper.
-We will also be collecting donations at this event! Please feel free to bring unopened cat or dog food that will be donated to Kibble Cupboard this year! Please visit them on the web, social media or at their table to see the wonderful local work they do!
