Animal Samaritans is proud to be participating in the Black History Parade and we invite you and your friendly, leashed dog to walk with us in the parade!

Parade walkers will receive a free Animal Samaritans t-shirt when they sign up to walk with us. If you’d like to walk with Animal Samaritans in the parade please email our Volunteer Coordinator, Michelle, at volunteer@animalsamaritans.org and write “Black History Parade” in the subject line.

Also, stop by our Animal Samaritans booth at the town fair following the parade!
