JACKSON, Wyo. — Thanks to wonderful and generous supporters, PAWS of Jackson Hole had an amazing Old Bill’s Fun Run for Charities. During OBFR’s 24-year history, PAWS has never broken the 400-donation mark. Last year PAWS had 368 donations, and in 2020 they had a record 469 donations … that’s 101 donations more than last year! Crushed it! Thanks for helping pets and their people!

While PAWS continues to work on developing a year-round dog park in Jackson, they are happy to celebrate their sixth winter season of partnering with Jackson/Teton County Parks and Recreation in providing this off-leash fenced area to our pet-friendly community during the winter months.

PAWS would like to remind you to please abide by social distancing guidelines, by allowing six feet of distance between you and other people while entering/exiting and recreating in the dog park. As always, please clean up after your dog. Let’s make sure the dog park is a clean and safe environment for all.

PAWS wishes everyone a happy, healthy and safe winter season and hopes to see you at the Winter Dog Park.
