PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — In spite of the rainy weather, dozens of people got on their feet Saturday to help support our furry friends with the Humane Society for Southwest Washington’s Walk Run for the Animals!

Happening along the Vancouver waterfront, donations to this critical fundraiser go to support the humane society and all the animals in their care, such as the 10,000 pets they helped last year.
