WHY  

The goal of the Howl-o-Walkoween is to raise funds to bolster our Humane Education Department's programs in and effort to reach more children in our community and end animal cruelty and neglect. 

Each year we feature an animal that has a great impact on the staff at Fort Wayne Animal Care & Control. 2023 guest of honor for the Howl-o-Walkoween was Joey.

Joey is a two-year-old Brindle and Pit Bull mix who was saved by the good Samaritans of Fort Wayne earlier this year. When Joey was brought to the shelter, he needed immediate care. 

We believe that by teaching children empathy, compassion and kindness we can create a more humane community and prevent future stories like Joey's.
