October 26: Best Friends Animal Society’s Strut Your Mutt helps save the lives of homeless dogs and cats in your neighborhood and around the country. The annual fundraising dog walk and festival culminates in a day of fun for four and two-legged participants of all ages.

If you are not able to attend, you can still make a donation and do the race as a virtual runner on the couch with your pooch!

All funds raised go directly to lifesaving programs, such as spay and neuter services, adoption events and more. Saturday, 7:30 a.m. registration opens. 9 a.m. walk begins.
