"Thank you for starting this program as it has truly changed so many of our lives. You are making a difference for SO many dogs and humans. This group inspires me to keep running and has brought me some of the most amazing friends!"
~Nicole Meyer
I am very thankful for you and your guidance, and for the opportunity RunningDog has given me to spend time with the dogs. We help them as much as they help us
~ Stacey Beacher
I never would have gotten to experience the joy of running shelter dogs had I not seen some RDRs at a race with their shirts and adoptable dogs! It sparked an interest for me and I’m so glad I joined! What a great community!
~ Monica Linkowski
MISSION and Vision
Our mission is to help keep kenneled adoptable dogs physically active, mentally stimulated, and emotionally balanced while they wait for their new homes.
​
Our vision is to create a community of certified volunteers that engage in meaningful interactions and adventures with shelter dogs. We aim to improve the lives of shelter dogs and provide relief for animal shelter staff.
