Needing to get out with your furry friend this Spring? Visit Westmoreland for our Dog and Jog race!

During this event we will have a non-competitive 3K race for you and your dog. However, where competition does come into play will be our unique categories such as "Craziest Tail Wagger" or "Most Enthusiastic" where your bud can earn a scarf/bandanna that can be shown off to all the other cool dogs in town. No pre-registration is required, but to be involved you will need proof of immunizations day of.

Additionally, if you do not have a dog yourself, still come out and join the fun and see all the happy faces. There might even be an option to rent a dog from a local animal shelter for the race (Westmoreland takes no fault in any melted hearts and new additions to families with the rent a dogs).

Registration begins at 8 am, the 3K will begin at 9 am.

There will also be a K9 squad exhibition, where you can watch these working dogs in action.
