Paws for Safety

April 17, 2008

Bring your leashed or caged pet — or even a stuffed animal — to Edgerton Park on Saturday, May 17 from 10a.m.-noon for prizes, raffles, and the opportunity to meet other pets and their families while enjoying Spring in New Haven’s Edgerton Park (Whitney and Cliff Streets).

The cost: $10/per family with pet or pets; $5 for those without live animals.

The purpose: to raise money for Domestic Violence Services; the reason for the walk: abusers either hurt or threaten to hurt family pets in order to keep their victims from leaving.
