On Saturday, April 13, 2013 animal lovers and their pets will join together as thousands of paws walk for a cause. Pet Parade is the premier walk-a-thon for animals in the Atlanta area in terms of public awareness, participation and revenue. The route is about 1.5 miles and winds around Atlantic Station, where you can also enjoy all the special offerings of our pet festival, including an array of adoptable animals, vendors, games, contests and booth displays by local rescue organizations. Advance registration is $30 by March 31, after which the price increases to $40. Participants can register by mail, online, or in person.
