Think you and your dog make the perfect team? Prove it in our brand-new Chow Down Challenge — the donut-eating race where both ends of the leash get in on the action!
Here’s how it works:
-
Humans will tackle delicious donuts.
-
Dogs will devour pup-safe donuts.
-
You’ll race side-by-side to see who can finish first — and the fastest human/dog pair in each size category (Small, Medium, Large) will take home prizes.
The winners from each category will then face off for the Grand Champion title, complete with bragging rights, a prize pack, and the admiration of the crowd!
Competition times:
Small dogs - 12:30pm
Medium dogs - 1:00pm
Large dogs - 1:30 pm
Championship Round - 2:15 pm
Whether you’re in it to win it or just for the laughs, this event is sure to be a highlight of Paws Crossed Day. Space is limited, so sign up early!
Paws Crossed is turning 10 – and we want our alumni to be part of the party!
Send us your favorite photo of your Paws Crossed pet for just $10 and we’ll feature it in our special 10th Anniversary display at Paws Crossed Day.
While you’re there, visit our Anniversary Booth to explore a decade of milestones on our Paws Crossed timeline – from our very first rescue to today.
Let’s celebrate 10 years of love, rescue, and forever homes… together!
Once your payment is complete, you’ll be redirected to a quick form where you can upload your pet’s photo and details.

Jack Grace
12:30pm - 2:45pm
“ He’s like that Cash kid, but good.”- Jerry Lee Lewis "Grace is a New York institution" Chronogram "It sounds like Cole Porter meets Gene Autry"- New York Times Jack Grace was born in Brooklyn, NY. He has spent decades on the road in the US, Canada and Europe, playing his "Country Rock with a Bossa Nova Twist". He has performed with a wide variety of artists, from Gordon Lightfoot to Jerry Lee Lewis to Norah Jones, Doc Watson to Fishbone, Merle Haggard to The Meters and his original songbook of many genres blends with them all. He is an accomplished finger-picking solo performer that could make you laugh or have you shed a tear, as well as a storied band leader, comfortably riding his well worn power trio into a dance frenzy or leading his decadent 7 piece outfit (complete with The Broken Mariachi horn section) deep into his sometimes humorous, yet often heartbreaking repertoire. "As clever as The Beatles" Americana Highways SUPER TROOPERS and SUPER TROOPERS 2 Jack Grace is known for his five songs in the cult hit, Super Troopers (Fox Searchlight), which Jack also aided in scoring. The song, “Big Bear," is also featured in Super Troopers 2 (Fox Searchlight), making Jack the only artist to have music in both movies. "He’s a New York legend."
