Please join us for our annual fall Bark Walk Fest celebration and fundraiser this Saturday, September 22, from 9am to 2pm, and help support the *temporarily* homeless animals of South Suburban Humane Society, in Chicago Heights!
Our wonderful event features, among other exciting activities, demonstrations from a local search and rescue dog and his handler; a terrific trainer from our own local Petco/Homewood; and a demonstration from an experienced dog training group!
Find out what's happening in Homewood-Flossmoorfor free with the latest updates from Patch.
The Fest is free; and we'd love to have you join us in our Bark Walk: registration is $25, and entitles you to "walk the walk" with your 4-legged family member; to an event tshirt; to a goodie bag; and to our undying gratitude!

We’re excited to have at the event:
- live music from the bandshell, generously donated by Dirtymac band (“ ‘50s through today”)… good times!!
- a professional photographer, AND a professional caricature artist, lending their skills to show off your dog(s)... and you!
- 20+ vendor tables from our MANY caring and shelter-supporting (thank you!) local companies, both pet-related, and “everyday”;
- terrific raffle baskets, with generous support from, again, our local south suburban businesses; and, 50/50 raffle tickets;
- several local animal rescues (with some of their gorgeous dogs available for adoption!);
- delicious food for purchase;
- games for kids, and for not-so-little-kids (and their 4-legged buddies!)
and of course, the stars of our show, our SPECTACULAR pets, looking for their forever home!
