THE THEME THIS YEAR IS "Zombie Apocalypse"
This year’s Bully Walk will be an easy and enjoyable 1-mile stroll through Woodward Park, along a path that is nearly 90% shaded with plenty of water features. We’ve added lots of doggy dip and water stations along the way, so your pups can stay cool and comfortable while you walk together. It’s the perfect distance to get your dogs moving without pushing them too far!
Once the walk is done, the fun is just getting started! Head back to the event area and enjoy over 40 vendors, raffles, photo booths, delicious eats from a taco truck, snacks, refreshing drinks, and our always-popular Costume Contest with great prizes and celebrity guest judges. Don’t forget to dress your pup in their Halloween best—they’ll also have the chance to “trick-or-treat” around the vendor booths.
🐾 Advance online registration is strongly encouraged! It helps make your morning smoother and allows us to better plan for our guest count. However, if you miss the online deadline, you can still register in person at the event between 8am–9am (cash or card accepted).
ALL dogs are welcome! While this event helps raise awareness and support for bully breeds, participation is not limited to them. Bring your four-legged friend—no matter the breed—for a day full of fun, community, and celebration.

Bully Walk Code of Conduct
Please Read
The following common-sense rules will be strictly enforced to provide a safe, fun environment to everyone who joins us:
1. Absolutely NO retractable leashes or heavy chain leashes may be used.
2. No aggressive behavior is allowed, please do not put your pet in a situation that it is not ready for, also remember to give other dogs their space too!
3. Leashes MUST be kept ON at all times. NO off-leash walking is allowed.
4. Please clean up after your pet. Make sure any pups are current on their vaccines!
5. Stay hydrated! There will be several water/cool down stations provided for your dog to enjoy while on the walk. There will also be water bottles for sale at the event for $1 each.
6. Wear good walking shoes! The walk is mostly on grass & dirt so some surfaces may be uneven. Good shoes will help you keep your balance when you have an excited dog tugging on the leash.
7. Please do not let children hold the leash. All dogs must be under the supervision of adults.
Please note Fresno City's NEW Parking Options
Woodward Park Zone 16223
The City of Fresno has implemented new technology at Woodward Park that will change the way you park and pay. City officials have not raised the daily rates and those with annual passes can still use them. Otherwise, it’s $5 per vehicle and $3 for seniors.
You’ll no longer have to stop at the ticket booth and pay someone, instead, you’ll drive right in and park. You’ll pay at an electronic kiosk OR through the ParkMobile app, the same app used to park in other areas of the city, like downtown. *Have your License Plate number on hand when paying.
Customers now have the option to pay by cash, credit, or debit card with new kiosks inside the park.
If using the app you can pay in advance or that day via the APP. The free ParkMobile app allows users to pay from their phones with a credit card or debit card.
Download the ParkMobile App in the APP Store or Google Play Store.
