| We strongly suggest that both the owner and dog train for this event, if they don't already run. Runners should start conditioning themselves and their dog over the four-week period leading up to the race. You should inspect your dog's pads for signs of injury (cuts and wear) and be careful in hot weather (carry water, keep runs short, watch your dog for signs of stress). We recommend jogging on trails or other locations where people run with their dogs, to acclimate your dog to running in a pack with distractions. 
The race director and race veterinarian reserve the right to refuse entry or remove a dog from the course if it might prove hazardous to others or whose physical condition appears to be in jeopardy before or during the event. The race director reserves the right to change the race to a fun run for "Dog Jog" entrants, if the temperature is excessively warm. Have a question?

Only 4% of all the charities reviewed by Charity Navigator have managed this feat.
