Akron Pug Fest 0.5K

Strap in and leash up for an adventure that's all about the paws - the inaugural Akron Pug Fest .5k 'Walk Your Pug' event is here! Join us with your four-legged friend on September 22 at 10:30 am, downtown at Cascade Plaza, because nothing speaks to the heart quite like a leisurely stroll with your furry companion. Not a pug parent? No worries! Friendly dogs of all breeds are welcome to partake in the joyous jaunt, so let's make some tails wag!

Your $20 registration fee not only guarantees an unforgettable day with your pup, but you're also barking up the right tree, supporting Ohio Pug Rescue. Picture this: crossing the finish line and snagging an instant photo with your furry buddy – the perfect keepsake from a perfect day. And for the fans of canine couture, snag an event t-shirt by noting your size when you sign up, plus a special pet memento for purchase.

But wait, there's more! Post-walk, the Akron Pug Fest transforms Cascade Plaza into a pup paradise, complete with vendors, food trucks, and a plethora of pet-centric activities. Stay for the festivities and let's celebrate our love for pugs and their pals!
