Folks who want to support the program can send a contribution to the guild at 3124 Ninth St. S.W., Canton, OH 44710. That's also the address of the Animal Attic, a resale store in which donated items are sold, with proceeds supporting the guild. The store is open from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Saturday. The Humane Society of Greater Akron is sponsoring a fund-raiser June 24 at Virginia Kendall Lake on Truxell Road in the Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area. The highlights of the Bark in the Park include a 5K race and a 1-mile walk.
Participants can compete for prizes by trying to outdo each other in raising pledges.
Naturally, dogs are invited to participate in the walk and other events.
