RSPCA Victoria is inviting exhibitors to connect with hundreds of passionate pet owners at this year’s Million Paws Walk at Hastings.
The Mornington Peninsula is home to one of the RSPCA’s main dog walking events, which provides the opportunity for businesses to make contact with dog and pet lovers, while raising money to end cruelty to animals.
Event and community fundraising manager Kate Kasby said this year’s event was a special milestone. “We’re very excited for this year because it marks the 30th anniversary of Million Paws Walk and we are planning an amazing day out for all pet lovers,” Kasby said.
“People love their pets and it’s such a fantastic day out that also helps us end animal cruelty by raising vital funds.
“With the number of animals being seized by or surrendered to our Inspectorate increasing each year, fundraising activities like Million Paws Walk are more vital than ever to help cover the cost of care for these animals.”
