The Animal Welfare League of Alexandria’s (AWLA) Paws in the Park earlier this month was a huge success, raising over $100,000 for the local animal shelter.

The event on Sunday, Oct. 13, featured 4,000 attendees along with their pets. The event is a free annual event that also serves as the city’s biggest animal adoption event and a huge fundraiser for AWLA.

The Animal Welfare League of Alexandria has concluded its investigation of PetSmart at Potomac Yard and found that while the facility has problems, there is insufficient evidence to charge the pet care facility or its staff with any crime.

The AWLA reported that a necropsy of Clark, one of the dogs that died after a stay at the Potomac Yard PetSmart boarding facility, likely contracted his illness before his stay at PetSmart.
