What does a "Virtual Walk" mean?

*Please ensure to download the Dog Jog App on your iOS or Android prior to the event. Detailed instructions on how to access the mobile app will be shared prior to June 4th.

What should I do to prepare for the event?

1. Customize your fundraising page. Once you are registered, you will immediately receive access to your personal online fundraising page. This feature allows you to collect and track online donations from your family, friends and colleagues.
   
   
2. Tell your family and friends that you are helping end animal cruelty. Customize your fundraising page with details on why you are supporting the animals. A quick story about a beloved pet is a great way to engage those who want to help you reach your fundraising goal and help the animals.
