Hundreds of Treasure Coast residents and nearly 500 dogs gathered at Halpatiokee Park for the 6th annual Howl-o-ween Mutt March. Dogs of all kinds & sizes were dressed in some very creative costumes competing for a pat on the head or a doggie cookie.
This year's event raised $65,000 for the Humane Society, breaking last year's record of $48,000.
Of special interest, Frank Valente, Executive Director of the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast, called Stuart Sailfish Club member and Jr. Angler Madison Wichers to the microphone and recognized her for collecting $323.00 in donations.
"$300.00 will spay or neuter 15 animals on the Animobile as well as provide a vet exam and medicine for a foster animal," says Madison.
Great job Madison!
