About the furry scurry
33 YEARS OF SCURRYING IN SUPPORT OF SHELTER ANIMALS
The 33rd annual Humane Colorado Furry Scurry is a 2-mile walk in Denver’s Washington Park in support of our vital mission of ending pet homelessness and animal suffering. We met over 3,000 Scurriers and their furry companions dressed to impurress in 2025! Will you help us reach even more people?
May 2, 2026, is an action-packed day for you and your dog! The run starts at 9am, but the fun continues until noon with the Flealess Market, pet education, food trucks, and more!

CONFIDENCE IN CONFIDENCE ALONE
Don first met Lucky at the Dumb Friends League in 2022, a time when he was reeling from the tragic loss of two significant relationships – his wife of nearly 64 years in 2016 and, more recently, his beloved dog, Wilson. Feeling the need for a new companion in his life, Don came to the League and immediately fell in love with Lucky, a sweet but timid Labrador retriever who had recently arrived at our doors.
