Get Fit With Your Dog
THSD is teaming up with RunTex and the Austin Mayor’s Council on Fitness to offer a free 12 week training program to get ready for The Mighty Texas Dog Walk, April 8, 2006.
Participants get a training plan to build up their and their dog’s fitness level so they can be ready for the 3 mile dog walk. THSD and RunTex will offer weekly training sessions with a short lecture on canine health and training and a walk at Town Lake, with the distances gradually increasing. Participants also receive a coupon for a discount for shoes at RunTex.
Participation is free with registration for the Mighty Texas Dog Walk (online registration will be available later this month).
The kickoff is Saturday, January 14, 2006 at 8:00 a.m. on the steps of Austin’s City Hall. We want at least 100 people and their dogs there. Please email sheri@servicedogs.org if you plan to attend the kickoff, so we can get a headcount. Austin Mayor Will Wynn will lead the first training walk with his dog. This will be a media event, so bring Fido and watch him on the news that night!
