Meet our amazing PetsWALK 2024 spokespet, Finn and Tess!
Both Jack Russell Terriers, 11-year-old Finn (right) and 2-year-old Tess (left) could not be more different! As the older dog, Finn loves to share his woofs of wisdom with the more energetic Tess, but she’s more content doing her own thing!
What the two do have in common is their love for adventure. These active pups walk around 3-5 miles with their mom every day. Whether it be wooded trails, beaches, or anywhere else, these pups love to get out and explore the world around them, making them excellent advocates for a 5K like PetsWALK.
They’re proud to be this year’s spokespets, as is their mom, who supports Kitsap Humane Society because of her passion for animals.
“We started doing PetsWalk in 2016, and have continued to participate every year”.
They take their spokespet duties very seriously, with Finn serving as the highest individual fundraiser every year!
“KHS is so invested in the community and the community is so invested with KHS - which I believe is what makes it such an amazing organization. KHS is truly on the leading edge, and I want to help that continue.”
Finn has amassed a large following of social media friends, using that platform to raise awareness of KHS’s mission. With newbie Tess joining in on the effort, we can’t wait to see what these pups accomplish!
“We love attending PetsWalk in person because we get to see people and their pets having a great time together.... Pets are family, and seeing these families out enjoying themselves is what makes it the best!”
Join Tess, Finn, and hundreds of other pet lovers at PetsWALK 2024, presented by VCA Central Kitsap Animal Hospital on Saturday, June 1. PetsWALK is an all-ages event and leashed pets are welcome. Pick up samples, learn about animal health, meet amazing local businesses and nonprofits, and more!
