But don't worry! Same-day registration will be available at the event!
Lace up your sneakers, leash up your furry friends, and get ready for a day full of tail wags and smiles—all in support of Carver Scott Humane Society (CSHS).
Run, Walk, Wag is a family- and dog-friendly 5K, welcoming seasoned runners, casual walkers, and their leashed companions alike.
After you cross the finish line, stick around for a lively community celebration featuring a pet and local business fair—and of course, the real stars of the show: adoptable animals ready to find their forever homes.
Get ready to bid for a great cause! Our Run, Walk, Wag Silent Auction will feature an exciting lineup of items—from local experiences and pet goodies to unique finds you won’t want to miss. With 80+ items available last year, there’s something for everyone (two- and four-legged alike!).
The best part? Bidding starts now, so you can start the fun early—and you don’t have to be present to win.
Can't make it to the run? You can still participate by grabbing a Silent Auction Only ticket for $0! Whether you’re joining us on race day or cheering from afar, you can still take home something special while supporting animals in need.
The silent auction will close at 12:30 PM on Saturday, September 26th. All items can be picked up at the end of the event or at our center at a later, pre-arranged time.
Run, Walk, Wag 5k and Community Event is dog-friendly! All dogs must be kept on a short, controlled leash at all times. We do ask that reactive dogs be left at home.
Can I bring other animals?
You may bring other furry animals if they remain contained in carriers or strollers (no paws on the ground). This is to help ensure their safety, as this is a dog-friendly event.
Is this a timed race?
Run, Walk, Wag 5k is an un-timed fun run. There will be a staggered start to allow for space between participating pups.
What if it rains?
The event is rain or shine except in the case of extreme storms, in which case there will not be a rain date, and all registrations will take the form of a donation.
Do I need to register my child?
Kids 12 and under participate for free! We ask that they remain with a participating adult during the event. Before attending a dog-friendly event, it's a good idea to review with kids how to greet new doggie friends safely.
