​

Can my dog run in the 5k?

• Yes, absolutely! Mutt Strut is all about celebrating our dogs so bring them along. Just make sure they are comfortable around other dogs, properly leashed, and up-to-date on their rabies vaccine.

Will there be water stations along the course?

• Yes, we will have water stations placed along the course to keep you and your pup hydrated.

Can I register on the day of the event?

• While we encourage participants to register in advance to secure their spot and streamline the check-in process (and secure an event t-shirt!), we will have on-site registration available the day of the event.

Is the event timed?

• The 5k is a timed event. We are working with RaceRise to accurately record times and determine winners. The 1.5 mile dog walk is just for fun!

What if it rains?

• Mutt Strut is held rain or shine! In the event of dangerous weather, we will provide updates and adjustments to ensure the safety of all participants.

Can I volunteer for Mutt Strut?

• Yes! We rely on volunteers to make sure our events run as smoothly as possible. If you're interested in lending a paw, please reach out to our Volunteer Coordinator at egindling@lexingtonhumanesociety.org.
