Richboro Therapy-Dog Group Hosting Dog Walk Fundraiser

RICHBORO, PA — A Richboro-based therapy-dog group will be hosting its first fundraiser, a virtual dog walk, in early November.

Angel on a Leash's dog walk is scheduled for Nov. 7 through Nov. 11.

They're asking people who would like to participate to pick up the leash, put on an event t-shirt and hit the streets. They also would like participants to take photos of their walks that can be shared on social media.

The registration fee is $35 and participants may register on the Angel on a Leash website. Groups and individuals may also donate directly. Corporate donors will be featured on the event t-shirt and in other media.

Angel on a Leash is a non-profit group that visits nursing homes, hospitals, hospices, libraries and elsewhere with their animals. Therapy dogs provide comfort and companionship, as well as mental stimulation for people suffering from head injuries or conditions such as dementia.
