MORE THAN JUST A RUN!

Celebrity Paws in the Park is hosting the world famous “Dock Dogs®” dog diving competitions in the event’s Canine Sports Arena.  Even non-professional canine athletes will be able to enjoy this once in a lifetime experience!

There will also be special stage shows with “Travis & Friends” that will teach kids how to be their best selves around dogs.  Animal Planet star, celebrity dog trainer and winner of the hit reality show “Greatest American Dog,” Travis Brorsen, will be live on stage for these fun-filled educational segments.

“When Charleston Animal Society asked me to be a part of its inaugural Celebrity Paws in the Park, I could not resist,” said Brorsen.  Travis built his career on sharing what he has learned about creating a positive learning environment for dogs and building relationships between them and their families based on friendship, kindness, and compassion.  “We’re taking expertise from my show ‘My Big Fat Pet Makeover’ to create an exciting Couch to 5K Training Program where people working with their dogs can get fit together with the goal of participating in the 5K fun run or walk on March 19th,” Brorsen said.

In addition, there will be a Pet Adoption Zone, Health & Wellness Zone, and the Canine Sports Arena. Celebrity Paws in the Park will feature a full day of family-friendly programming that includes live obedience and working dog demonstrations.

CREWS SUBARU SPONSORSHIP

“As an integral part of our Subaru Love Promise to our community, we believe that people and pets are better together,” said Ken French, Marketing Guy for Crews Subaru. “As the 2021 Subaru Retailer of the Year, Crews supports many programs that benefit children, and Celebrity Paws in the Park brings our passions together.  We are honored to be the Presenting Sponsor, not only in the inaugural year but for the next three years as Subaru Loves Pets!!”
