About PawsFest
Join us at our beautiful 50-acre campus, located in Mebane, for our annual walk/run event and an afternoon of games, music, food, and fun!
We're delighted to feature a beer tent with Dingo Dog Brewing Company, delicious food truck options from Dough Broughs, Peruano and A&M Burgers Fries and More, and toe-tapping tunes from the The Blue Star Travelers!
Enjoy your run or walk, then browse the great vendor and animal rescue tables, play lawn games like bocce and cornhole, take the little ones to the face-painting and kids' activities table -- or just relax and enjoy the music.
This is a dog-friendly and family-friendly event, so bring the whole gang!
About Paws4ever
All proceeds from the event benefit Paws4ever, which has been serving the Triangle and beyond for over 50 years.
We provide shelter and adoption services for homeless animals, affordable dog training classes for the community, and a Legacy Care program for pets whose owners can no longer care for them.
Paws4ever is dedicated to creating and growing lifetime relationships between pets and people through adoption, training, education & care.
