Gruber Law Offices, Foley & Lardner and Hupy and Abraham helped to sponsor the Wisconsin Humane Society’s annual Pet Walk in downtown Milwaukee on Saturday at Veterans Park. Event organizers expected about 700 people to participate in the event, which featured a 5K run, a 5K or 1-mile walk, a dog costume contest, food vendors, live music and other activities. Money raised by the event benefitted the Wisconsin Humane Society.
