Looking for a way to give back to your community while enjoying the outdoors and spending time with some furry friends? Come walk a shelter dog!

Join us at The Babinski Foundation Animal Shelter for a public shelter dog walk on the last Saturday of every month! Walking outside in nature isn’t just great for the dogs - it’s also a wonderful boost for your own physical and mental well-being.

This event is the perfect way to get our shelter dogs out of their kennels for some much-needed exercise, fresh air, and enrichment, while giving you a chance to unwind and connect with nature.

An experienced dog walker will be there to assist you from start to finish, ensuring a safe, fun, and rewarding experience for both you and your shelter canine companion. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn more about animal welfare and the important mission of The Babinski Foundation.

Everyone is welcome! You don’t need to be a registered volunteer or bring anything with you - just bring yourself and a dog-walkin’ attitude!

We start on the hour every hour from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Spaces are limited to 5 walkers per hour to keep everyone safe and ensure proper training, so please be sure to snag your spot on Eventbrite. If you drop by without registering, don't worry - we’ll still find a way for you to help out with other volunteer tasks! To ensure you get your puppy fix, make sure to sign up.
