We did it! I think we walked 3 miles, Dante did great! I even had the checkpoint vets look at him, and they said he was great! Didn't even tug, and we saw so many neat dogs. My friends walked with me and brought their dogs as well. I raised $522 for homeless pets, and at 11:00 am, the total was up to $87,000!!! I'm so happy we did it! I'll have to take pictures of the prizes we won as well.


That's hank (the weimie) and Gauge ( the lab-mix) Dante's buddies

The three of us on the trail.

Some of the dogs.

One of the covered rest areas for people and pets that were 1/2 mile apart!
Hope they weren't too big!!!!

That looks so fun! Yay for you, Dante, and all the others for your efforts. Wish we had something like that here.
