From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for walking with us.

Illawarra Million Paws Walk 2025 – POSTPONED SUNDAY, 29 JUNE

Due to recent weather and flooding, this weekend's Million Paws Walk has been postponed to Sunday, 29 June 2025.

This weekend was meant to mark our last lap—the final Million Paws Walk after more than 30 years of walking side by side, united in our mission to end animal cruelty 🙌

It’s one of our favourite days of the year, but with ongoing rain and unsafe conditions at the site, we’ve had to make the tough call to delay the event. Your safety - and that of your pups - comes first.

All ticket holders will have the option to:
• Hold onto their ticket for the new date
• Request a full refund
• Or donate the cost of their ticket

To those who have shown up year after year: thank you. Your ongoing support, passion, and paws mean the world to us and hope to see you next month for one final, unforgettable lap ❤️
