Bark For Life is a fun family event that brings together dogs and their owners to raise awareness and funds for the fight against cancer.

Dogs are the unnoticed caregivers who give a special kind of support for cancer patients. The American Cancer Society’s Bark For Life of Utica is a walk for dogs and their owners to fight back against cancer at Mohawk Valley Community College on May 14th. Join us for a 1.5 mile, non-competitive walk on a preplanned route. Registration begins at Noon, and the walk starts at 1 PM. Dogs and their owners can enjoy games, demonstrations and contests throughout the event.

Participants can pre-register their dog for $15 each through the event website or register the day of for $20 per dog. Registration fee includes a free Bark For Life bandana for your dog.

Bring your favorite pooch and join the American Cancer Society for a day of tail wagging, dog treats, and tricks as we help people get well, stay well, fight back and find cures. To learn more about Bark For Life of Utica, call 1-800-227-2345 or visit relayforlife.org/barkuticany.
