Finally, a 5K where tail wagging is encouraged and your dog is an official participant. We’re doggone excited to announce a brand-new event coming to Harrisonburg on March 21: the Mutt Strut 5K!
All dogs receive a commemorative race bandana, and the 5K route winds through the Friendly City Trail and the paths of Hillandale Park — the perfect place to stretch your legs (and paws). Whether you’re chasing a PR or just chasing squirrels, this event is all about welcoming spring, taking sniff breaks, and supporting a great cause.
❤️ 100% of race proceeds benefit Anicira Veterinary Center ❤️
