Rescue Dog Walk with Heart of the Foothills

Come walk the Thermal Belt Rail Trail with one of the rescue dogs from Heart of the Foothills Animal Rescue! HFAR is a local no-K*ll shelter and has many dogs that would love to go for a walk on the trail with you. Carriers and leashes will be provided. You must be at least 16 years old to walk a dog, but all ages are welcome to attend. Dogs will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis in the order of RSVPs.

Upon arrival to Heart of the Foothills Animal Rescue, please sign-in with an ROC staff member or volunteer and wait to be paired up. After all the dogs are loaded, we will drive 1/2-mile to the Thermal Belt Rail Trail where we will walk the dogs for about 1-2 miles. The trail is flat and is rated as easy. Since there are a limited number of dogs available, you MUST pre-register for this event.

You must be 16 years or older to walk a dog, but participants of any age are welcome to just walk with us! Anyone under 18 must be supervised by an adult.

When: First Saturday of the Month at 10am
