Last year over 5,000 of you and your four legged friends came to Dogs Trust´s first ever Waggy Walks! Not only was it a great day, you also helped raise over £85,000 for our canine friends - which has helped give thousands of abandoned dogs a healthier, safer and happy life!

Dogs Trust will be Waggy Walking once again in ten beautiful parks across the UK. You can choose to walk a route of 5K or 10K and you don´t need a dog to take part.

So why not treat yourself, family and friends to another great day out? You´ll be helping even more of our four legged friends!

And if you didn´t take part last year, join us to make this Waggy Walks even bigger and better!
