It’s back! Join us for the 2nd annual Great Paws & Claws Pumpkin Off, where 24 local businesses and organizations are competing to create the most pawsome, funny, and creative pumpkins. From October 1st through October 20th, you can help choose the winners by voting for your favorites— a $1 donation equals 1 vote, with every dollar directly supporting the pets at the Leavenworth County Humane Society.

Whether you stop by participating businesses or visit the pumpkins on display at our shelter, your votes will help crown this year’s Pumpkin Champion. The top three pumpkins will take home custom plaques, and the winning business will earn a special sponsorship prize from LCHS.

Get ready to celebrate creativity, community, and a whole lot of pumpkin fun—all while helping local pets find the happy endings they deserve!
