Walk for the Animals at Barktober Fest
Saturday, September 26th
In this unprecedented year, we are looking ahead to our 23rd Annual Walk for the Animals at Barktober Fest. With the uncertainty surrounding live events, the critical life saving funds raised at this event are now at risk. Our priority remains the health and safety of our supporters and staff, as well as continuing to provide critical care for the homeless and abused pets in our community. This year, the dollars you raise for the Walk for the Animals (regardless of whether we’re actually able to walk together) are more essential than ever before.
Virtual & Private Training Classes
You can now access the expertise of our Behavior & Training Team from the comfort of home or with private classes at Lollypop Farm! If you are experiencing an issue with your pet, want to work on a behavior, or are just looking to work on training, give us a call! Our Behavior Team is ready to cater either a unique, virtual experience or private lessons that will have you and your pet on the road to success.
