Benefitting Dogs 2nd Chance

MUTT STRUT 5K ALLOWS DOGS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RACE

Due to limited parking spaces last year, we have moved to another location within Overton Park. Our new location will be at the Rainbow Lake Pavilion on Old Forest Lane. The pavilion is located off Poplar ave across from Overton Bark dog park. The new address is 2080 poplar Ave Memphis Tn to the Rainbow Lake Playground will bring you to the pavilion.

100% of our proceeds goes directly to the care of the dogs. Sign up by September 10th to guarantee a t-shirt on race day!

Sign up with your family and your dog to participate in 3.1 miles of running/walking around beautiful Overton Park. We offer MRTC, Military and 1st Responder discounts, please follow the questions while registering for more information.
