K-9 Reading Buddies of the North Shore, in partnership with the Park District of Highland Park, celebrates 10 years of service with its K9 Pup Strut & Expo. Join together with Chicagoland families and dog lovers of all ages for a 1-mile walk (with or without a dog) and a FREE Expo featuring a variety of dog-themed exhibitors and activities including doggie massages, pet caricatures and portraits, dog tricks, demonstrations, and much more! Food, raffle drawings and prizes will also be part of the fun-filled day. Net proceeds from the walk will benefit K-9 Reading Buddies of the North Shore, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, for its literacy and community outreach programs.
