Nashville Shores is partnering with New Leash on Life, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the welfare of companion animals in our community through shelter, placement, spay/neuter, education and awareness for the inaugural Wags 'N Waves. Nashville Shores will open its gates for this event and allow owners to bring their dogs to the Wave Pool for a Dog Only Swim Day!

Show off your "TRUE" colors at this fun, annual event! All proceeds from the race will help fund Wilderwood Service Dogs as well as raise money for PARC Foundation’s mission to strengthen families by positively impacting the community organizations in Sevier County. All 5K and 1-Mile participants will receive an entry for their dog in the Pet Parade. Awards will be presented to the best in the following categories: Twinzies (the best dog and owner lookalike), Most Original, Best Fictional Character, Home Spun Magic (best homemade costume). Best of Show will be presented to the winner of the four categories as set apart by most obedient. The winners will be crowned immediately following the Pet Parade. Both the Color Me Mutt 5K Color Run and the 1-Mile Color Fun Run/Walk are pet-friendly races! You DO NOT need to be a pet owner to participate but pampered pooches are always welcome, making it the perfect way for dogs and their parents to spend time together in an active, healthy and fun environment. All color used is non-toxic and we have water stations for both dogs and owners on the route.

Beer garden, bark market, pop-up dog park, dog beer tastings (Bowser Beer), pet photo booth, "arfs and crafts", face painting, pet adoptions, food trucks and more! This event will be held rain or shine.

Bring Fido to this fun event featuring music, food, vendors and lots of dog related activities! Hosted by Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary.
