We are absolutely thrilled to be a Top Dog Sponsor for Paws 4 You Rescue‘s first ever RUN FUR FUN! The hard-working team at Paws 4 You has joined with animal lovers in Miami to present a dog-friendly 5K benefiting the lucky dogs they take in from Miami-Dade Animal Services. Not only will this raise money for these precious dogs… participants can also run WITH their pups- which we love! This 5K is less than two weeks away, and we’re going to be there! Will you join us? Let’s save homeless pets together while having fun! REGISTER NOW!
The Details for Paws 4 You Rescue’s Run Fur Fun:
The Run Fur Fun 5K is a rain or shine event! Everyone attending can enjoy pet vendors, delicious food, and meet dogs from Paws 4 You which are ready for their forever homes! While there, you have the option of completing a 5K run or walk, or a 1-mile run or walk on a paved trail.
We’re SO excited because dogs are welcome! Please make sure that they are on lead at all times. They must also be well-socialized and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Picking up doggy “doo” is a must! Don’t have a pup? No worries! Paws 4 You has thought of everything- just visit the “Rent-a-Dog” booth!
