Walk for Animals is one such event that features two and four legged fans to help raise funds for the more than 6,000 homeless cats and dogs each year and provide affordable medical treatment to more than 50,000 animals annually. Fresco’s Bakery & Bistro, Palace Pizza, and Crisper’s are just a few of the many restaurants that accommodate pups.
