PetWell Walk for PetWellness 2025

Magical Mutts & Mystical Pups!

PetWell Walk for PetWellness 2025 is a 5km fundraising dog walk that supports the amazing work Second Chance Animal Rescue (SCAR) do!

This year's charity dog walk will be spellbinding!

We're inviting all dogs and their humans to come dressed as wizards, witches or magical creatures - because together, you're conjuring up second chances and happy endings for rescue animals through the power of love, kindness, and community.

Whether it’s a glittery unicorn horn, a flowing wizard cloak, or a sparkly wand in tow – your pup’s costume helps spread the message: Every dog deserves a little magic.

The Walk starts at Point Park, Docklands, along the Yarra River to Southbank and back to Point Park (5km).

How Your Ticket Purchase or Donation Helps SCAR

Your tax-deductible walk tickets and donations help SCAR keep pets and the people who love them together where they belong.

Second Chance Animal Rescue not only rescue, rehome and rehabilitate displaced and abandoned pets, they also support pet owners who are doing it tough to keep their four-legged friends happy, healthy and at home by their side.

As a not-for-profit organisation SCAR receive no ongoing government funding, so their life-saving work relies heavily on the kindness and generosity of supporters just like you.

Help animals like Rosie

After spending seven years as a breeding dog, Rosie was discarded at a pound alongside her brother, Maximus. SCAR stepped in to rescue them both, but when Rosie suffered a life-threatening complication after surgery, Sarah trusted her instincts and rushed her to emergency care—ultimately saving her life. Thanks to SCAR’s love and dedication, Rosie made a full recovery and found her forever home, where she finally gets to live the joyful life she always deserved.
