FAQs
Race information
Can I run/walk with my dog?
Absolutely! We are running to support pets, pet lovers, and animal charities! So you can run or walk with or without your LEASHED and healthy dog! We request that leashes are no longer than 6 feet. We ask that you do not use retractable leashes as they have been known to cause accidents. We will also have a complimentary wellness exam station prior to the race for any participating dogs.
My dog isn't much for walking/running, can they still come?
Of course! Dogs that are friendly with people of all ages and with other dogs are welcome to attend. We do not recommend bringing those that are not fans of crowds, noise, or other dogs. We highly discourage bringing other types of pets (cats, snakes, birds, etc). This tends to be a stressful situation for them, and we do not condone it.
If your dog is in heat, please let them stay at home.
I don't have a dog. Can I still participate?
Absolutely, dogs are not a requirement. We have plenty of people who choose to leave their pets at home and enjoy the day pet-free. We love seeing all of your pets, but you can join in on all of the fun with or without your pets.
Are bikes, skates, or scooters allowed in the race?
For the safety of all of our participants, we do not permit the use of bikes, skates, or scooters during the event. Strollers and wagons are allowed.
Do I have to register my child?
All participants will need to be registered. As this is a fundraiser for New Leash on Life, think of their registration as a donation to help improve the lives of the homeless animals in our community that so desperately need our support.
Event information
Will food and drinks be available for purchase?
Yes, we will have food trucks during the event.
What happens if it is raining?
This event goes on rain or shine. We ask that you prepare accordingly.
