🐶 Our annual 'Dog Jog' 2 Mile Run or Walk will be held at the #DavisTurkeyTrot on Sat. 11/20. Proceeds benefit the @yolo_spca. Bring your furry four legged friend and join the fun! 2 Mile #dogjog start is 8:40 a.m. We get this question a lot: older pups (or those not used to the distance) are welcome to ride in dog strollers or wagons. Also: a dog is not required to participate in this division! There are many people who run or walk the 2 Mile without a dog each year. More info at runsignup.com/davisturkeytrot. #runswithdogs #mydogismytrainer #yolospca #turkeytrot #davisCA #daviscalifornia
