PAWS Zombie Walk & Furry 5k
PAWS hosts a Halloween-themed event on October 24, 2026, at Gravel Road Brewing Co in Middletown, Ohio. The event features a 3.1 Miles walk/run that uses the bike path and wide downtown sidewalks around the brewery as the start and finish area.
The program emphasizes dog-friendly activities. Dogs can expect treats, social time with other dogs, and a costume contest. Participants receive pet finisher awards, goodie bags, and there will be raffles. Awards are given for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in two weight divisions: pups under 50 lbs and pups over 50 lbs.
Parking is available nearby, with the largest lot a block away at 26 S Broad Street behind the SORG Opera House. Additional public parking is listed at 63 S Main Street behind the SORG Opera House.
Registration details include an opening date of February 16, 2026. Early registration is $25 through September 30; later registration fees increase to $30 during the period before the event and $35 on the day of the event. Event shirts are available for $15 each with a preorder deadline of October 1. Registration does not require running with a dog; running with a dog is required to be eligible for pet awards.
