Howling 5k Run & Dog Walk at Wilson Park


Wilson Park Gazebo

This event by Service Dogs of Distinction benefits the regional nonprofit in Fayetteville, Arkansas, providing service dog training for veterans with PTSD and TBI. It's a family-friendly, dog-friendly event!

This is our 6th year of the Howling Halloween event! It's family friendly, dog friendly, great for 5K runners and people who love to walk their dogs. All proceeds go to acquiring and training service dogs for veterans with PTSD. Service Dogs of Distinction uses only shelter, rescue and second chance dogs to help change the life of a veteran.

We meet at Wilson Park in Fayetteville, AR near the gazebo by the playground, on the north side of the park. The date this year is Saturday, October 28th, 8am to 11am. We have music, a runner's breakfast, great prizes and costume contests for dogs and their people. The 5K will begin at 8:30am and the 1 mile dog walk at 9:00am. There will be door prizes, runner prizes and contest prizes.

We have free tee shirts for all online registrations! Tickets are $25.00/ea. Children under 10 are free!

Rain or shine!
