As a Doggie Dasher, you not only get the full-hearted, warm, fuzzy feeling of knowing that your fundraising efforts are directly helping animals in need—you get cool prizes, too!
Earn prizes by reaching the seven fundraising milestones: $50, $150, $300, $500, $1,000, $2,500, and $5,000.
Raise $500 and gain exclusive access to the Doggie Dash VIP Booth (sponsored by Terry Morrison/Stifel) at the festival on May 11! You'll be treated like royalty with drinks, snacks, and most importantly, luxury bathroom access courtesy of Royal Restrooms!
