Paws hit the pavement and tails wagged in overdrive at McKamey Animal Center‘s Pawpalooza, the ultimate fundraising walk for furry friends. Four-legged participants strutted their stuff at Coolidge Park — with their humans, of course — to support the center and the animals McKamey cares for each year. With food trucks, local vendors and crowd-favorite pet contests, there was something for every species. All proceeds went toward supporting the animals and services that make McKamey a place where every pet has a chance to shine.
