Country Fair to host Paws for a Cause

The Country Fair Entertainment Park in Medford will host the Paws for a Cause fundraising event later this month.

Paws for a Cause, which raises money for the Long Island Against Domestic Violence nonprofit, invites families to bring their costumed pets and compete for awards.

Categories include best human/pet duo, best celebrity look-a-like, best DIY costume and best in show. Paws for a Cause, which takes place on Saturday, Sept. 25 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., also features a virtual event for those who can’t attend in person.

Tickets cost $25 per family with one dog and $10 for each additional dog.

TD Bank is the presenting sponsor of Paws for a Cause, which aims to raise awareness of the link between domestic violence and animal abuse and raise funds for LIADV’s life-saving services.
