Event information
Since it began in 2016, Mutt Strut has been our favorite annual celebration. For our 5th anniversary, we had some big plans: providing chip-timed results, moving to the summer to make it easier for families to join us, and bringing hundreds of supporters together in Maple Park. However, 2020 has been a tough year for plans—especially for organizations like ACL that rely on funds raised through large public events.
More than anything, we want to bring our community together safely during this time of social distancing.
That's why we've decided to host our first ever VIRTUAL MUTT STRUT from July 17th to July 19th.
While we can't yet gather physically, we are very excited to find new ways to keep our friends close. This year, we'll run or walk in our own neighborhoods—but just like every other year, we'll be united by our goal of raising life-saving funds for homeless animals.
Although we won't be waiting at the finish line, we'll all be cheering each other on online as we work towards our common goal.
Set up your personal fundraising page at the time of registration. Our top 3 fundraisers will receive an awesome prize!
