PSPCA's Main Line Animal Rescue Location in Chester Springs

The large, beautiful campus of Main Line Rescue and the PSPCA in Chester Springs. Lots of green grass and fresh air.  Kristen Herrmann for BBGI

I can't stress enough how expansive the venue is. Held on 60 acres in Chester Springs, just outside of Philadelphia. There are tall trees, lots of green grass, and (prepare yourself) some hills to conquer on the run itself. Seeing the beautiful campus makes you happy too, knowing that the animals being cared for while they're waiting for their forever homes are getting a taste of nature and beauty while they wait.

The Tails and Trails 2024 Party

Following the run, stick around for food, a beer garden, music from BEN FM, kid's corner, raffles, adoptable animals, vendors, and more! Friends, family-members, and dogs* are all welcome to attend!
