Join the West Suburban Humane Society and be a champion for rescue animals!

The West Suburban Humane Society invites animal lovers of all ages to Barkapalooza 2026, a lively and heartwarming day filled with wagging tails, delicious eats, great music, and one powerful goal: to raise $100,000 for homeless dogs and cats. Now celebrating its 33rd year, this pet-friendly, family-friendly community fundraiser returns to Lisle Community Park on Sunday, September 27.

Whether you walk, run, or just come for the fun, your support helps save lives. All proceeds from Barkapalooza directly benefit the rescue, care, and adoption of animals in need.
