Dogs' Day in the Park & The Mutt Strutt

The Event

Dogs’ Day in the Park is our most exciting community event of the year! The event will be held at the Marge Goodfellow Park in New Freedom, PA on August 20, 2022. Humans and dogs alike are invited to join ARI for a day of fun to raise money for our Sanctuary for Life. The Mutt Strutt, a walk for pets, will be from 8 am to 10 am, and the main event will take place 10 am to 4 pm. The day includes vendors and rescues, games and contests, a flea market, Chinese Raffle, Silent Auction, cruelty-free foods, demonstrations, Rent-A-Dog, a lure course and much, much more. 

The Mutt Strutt

During the morning of Dogs’ Day from 8 am to 10 am, we host The Mutt Strutt, a walk for animals at the YCR Trail near the park. Walkers are invited to fundraise online or with a traditional paper form. In the past we’ve offered great prizes like cash, televisions and original portraits and more. You can walk anytime from 8am until 10am at your own pace.

COVID-19 Notice

We intend to comply with any and all of Pennsylvania's COVID-19 gathering guidelines, and are asking all attendees to follow those guidelines as well. The guidelines will likely continue to change as we near the event. We will be taking extra precautions to ensure the safety of all individuals at the event, such as disinfecting shared items, offering more Port-A-Potties and sanitation stations, and offering adequate space between booths to ensure social distancing. Please revisit this page closer to the event for any updates. 

Other Information & Rules

Admission is free and there is ample free street parking surrounding the park. Please do not park at People's Bank as they will be serving their own customers that day.
 
There are Port-A-Potties available for your use.
 
ATM is available on site and at the People's Bank next to the park.
 
If you're planning on bringing a dog, please do not use a flexi/retractable leash - regular leashes only. Please ensure your dog is socialized and not in heat. Be prepared to clean up after your pet as well.
