Retriever Fever & Paws in the Park – Sept 20, 2025 | Grand Rapids, MI
Pink Paw Pâtisserie is proud to be part of Paws With A Cause’s fifth annual Retriever Fever—a tail-wagging day of fun for families, dog lovers, and furry athletes alike!
This year’s event includes the first-ever Paws in the Park 5K & 1-Mile Fun Run, followed by the classic Retriever Fever celebration, featuring local vendors, PAWS mission moments, and the fan-favorite Labrador vs. Golden Retriever Race.
💧 And don’t worry, we’re keeping the pups cool and hydrated! Pink Paw Pâtisserie is sponsoring all water stations with our vitamin-infused, ultra-hydrating doggie drinks—perfect for post-race refreshment or casual sipping.
